An easy to use drop-in kit to upgrade your Game Boy Color. This "Cloud" version is yet another type of IPS backlight you can buy for your Game Boy.

FEATURES:

  • Display is transflective, meaning it works wonderfully in direct light!
  • No shell modification required for regular GBC Shells
  • Beautiful LCD with backlight
  • Includes shielding sticker for the back of the PCB
  • Brightness adjustment without soldering wires
  • Double sided foam adhesive is not required and is meant to help center LCD if not using spacers. 
  • We recommend using the included 'TFT brackets' instead of the 'acrylic spacer'.

INCLUDED:

  • 1x TFT LCD
  • 1x PCB
  • 1x Adhesive
  • 1x Insulation film
  • 1x Ribbon
  • 1x Touch sensor ribbon
  • 1x Set of TFT brackets
  • 1x Acrylic spacer

DOCUMENATION:

NOTES:

  • The display area on the LCD is slightly smaller than the original so a TFT lens must be used to mask properly. 
  • This LCD no longer has a protective film on it. Do not attempt to peal anything off the LCD as this results in removing the polarizer.
  • After installation, if it is noted that your touch sensor is overly sensitive or is cycling, please see this article for assistance.
  • The touch sensor can be placed near the top of the console. It is located on the opposite side (side further from the IR senor) when compared to the unbranded TFT GBC kit.

WARNINGS:

  • Test before installation! When you receive a backlight/LCD kit, you should perform a dry run before installing to assure that nothing has been damaged in transit. A dry run or test fit means the kit is not installed in the shell. This includes the use of adhesives, brackets, and any performed soldering. All ribbon cables should have no bends or creases in them. If you are unsure how to perform a dry run, please contact our support team and we will be happy to help. Backlight kits that have been installed are not eligible for replacement or return.

  • LCD may break if put under too much pressure or dropped. Please exercise extreme caution when installing.

Good but missing all but one screen centering bracket.

Got 2 kits and both only came with one screen centering bracket each. Other than that, the kits install with ease and work well.

Impressive and easy

This was a very smooth and easy installation. It is worth reminding that the touch sensor DOES NOT line up with the shell so you will not be able to use it and will have to just tuck it away. You will also want to pick up the tft glass lens to fit the new screen but the results are totally worth it. The display is clean and vibrant but not too bright. Still feels authentic and not too gauty. A real good quality upgrade 👌🏻
