Nintendo Game Boy Advance Custom – Bubblegum Sky Edition with 3.0" Drop-In 720x480 IPS Display Mod
The perfect complement and counterpart to the Cotton-Candy look! This original Nintendo Game Boy Advance (AGB-001) has been fully restored and rebuilt in the sweet Bubblegum Sky (Kaugummi-Himmel) design.
In this edition, the color scheme has been stylishly reversed: The matte case shines in a fresh pastel blue on the front and back. The color accents on the sides, the battery compartment, and all buttons (D-pad, A/B buttons, and shoulder buttons) stand out in a soft pastel pink. The extremely clean look is rounded off by a perfectly color-matched pink real glass screen with white lettering. An absolute dream device for all pastel lovers and collectors!
The installed 3.0" Drop-In IPS display delivers an incredibly sharp, vibrant, and bright image with its extremely high resolution of 720x480 pixels (exactly 9 times the original GBA resolution). The display is also laminated, so annoying dust particles under the scratch-resistant real glass screen are a thing of the past.
Important note about this model: This display was deliberately installed without vulnerable touch sensors. All brightness and menu controls are reliably and comfortably operated via a button combination directly on the Game Boy.
