Just a little something I whipped up before going on a road trip, I used smd LED's and 30 gauge wire, so it was damn hard to solder together, I think it turned out to be really good!

ya, I was thinking about adding some (only problem is that they are expensive), but when I started building this gameboy I did not have the buttons planned, I just saw some smd's on the table next to me and decided to slap them in!

I actually have something similar, and I messed up the screen when I backlit it so it looks like I threw it in a freezer for a long time haha

As annoying as it is to write with a messed up screen...honestly, i like the effect it makes visually haha

The clear buttons? They're insanely cheap taking into consideration the cost of the mold.

Total noob when it comes to modding buttons. How did you get the leds into the buttons? And is the power source the 5V?
