has anyone here backlight modded a gameboy pocket? thinking about doing just that

@noiob just be careful when removing the polarizer film

the ribbon cables are VERY fragile ;;

@noiob hehe

i def wanna try again at some point tho
i actually bought another GB pocket but the display in that was broken from the start

one day i'll have too much money and i'll just buy a working one
and then mod that.
