Nintendo GameBoy Color Custom Console – Fast Food Diner Edition with 2.8" Laminated IPS Display Mod

Here’s an absolutely delicious eye-catcher for your retro collection! This original Nintendo GameBoy Color (CGB-01) has been professionally restored and transformed with a fantastic custom shell in retro diner style.

The front shell delights with a playful all-over print featuring burger, hot dog, and ketchup/mustard illustrations on a soft pink tile pattern. The yellow buttons (D-pad and A/B buttons), pink Select/Start rubber buttons, and bright yellow back of the shell perfectly complement the design. A white real-glass lens with a colorful “GAME BOY COLOR” logo completes this unique collector’s piece.

The hidden highlight is the installed 2.8" Laminated IPS LCD Kit by Hispeedido: It offers an approximately 46% larger viewing area than the original GBC screen and impresses with razor-sharp HD resolution (480x432 with Integer Scaling) as well as crystal-clear image quality. Since the lens and LCD are firmly bonded (laminated), there is no annoying air gap and absolutely no dust under the display!

The integrated OSD menu lets you perfectly customize your viewing experience - from 20 brightness levels and optional scanlines to the practical Desaturation function, which can adjust the IPS colors to match the original, subtle look of the past when needed.
