Hi everyone,
May 23, 2016 I will not add any more button. A+B are enough for me, but I'm sure there are enough place to add them. What pieces I got: - GameBoy Color (the blue one) - Raspberry Pi Zero - 2.5 Adafruit TFT Screen. The 3.5 is too big for the GameBoy Color. It can probably fit in the case but you have to move the volume pot and the power switch. Powerboost. Feb 12, 2013 It's a backlit GBC in a DMG, sort of! It's a GBASP locked into GBC mode, so that's effectively what it is. Line-out on the headphone jack, plays all GBC and GB games, and a rechargeable battery.
I just started my CGZ but with a GameBoy Color.
For this mod I want to keep the case as brand new as possible. I will not add any more button. A+B are enough for me, but I'm sure there are enough place to add them.
What pieces I got :
- GameBoy Color (the blue one)
- Raspberry Pi Zero
- 2.5 Adafruit TFT Screen. The 3.5 is too big for the GameBoy Color. It can probably fit in the case but you have to move the volume pot and the power switch.
- Powerboost 1000 C
- Audio amplifier from Adafruit
- Speaker from Adafruit
- GameBoy cartridge
What I need now :
- The battery
- Some small stuff like small button for the display, etc...
What I don't use :
- Teensy LC to keep space
- USB hub
- More button
I did not start as Wermy because I want to be sure every part can work with each other before to cut the case.
First Step : The screen
So the screen PCB for the 2.5 is not the same of the 3.5. But the chip which should be removed is also on this board at the bottom right of the photo

So i removed it

And link the power + ground to old place of the chip, like the tutorial.[spoiler='Show me the photo'][/spoiler]
Then I linked everything to the raspberry. But watch out, to link the composite to the raspberry, I had to link the yellow to the square, and the white to the circle. This is the opposite of Wermy. When I did as Wermy the screen turned on (the backlight) but nothing appeared on the screen.

Dmg Buttons Fit Gameboy Color System
And finally, I linked the raspberry to the power and wouuuuuaaa, it works.
