Behold the holy grail of Game Boy Advanced Shells from our partner RetroSix.
The fit, feel and tolerance on the RetroSix ABS shell is better than the original. The buttons are stronger with newer ABS and more accurate molds than the original, the buttons and triggers are ultra-responsive, the plastic is much stronger and free of any detects like those you get on injection-molded shells.
This listing is for a shell and battery cover. Buttons and Lens sold separately.
These shells do not have "For Nintendo" logos. Check out other available colors on our prestige shells with "For Nintendo" logos.

Need to do a lot more research on Google to do the install especially if you’re soldering the wires to the board.

Easy to install and made the audio so much better.
Easy install, beautiful shell. Buttons have a great tactile feel, and the grip of the shell is really nice. My new favorite handheld!
Bought this shell to use with Retroglow and clear buttons (had to use Funnyplaying brand because RetroSix Clear were sold out). Without any buttons installed, the shell will not securely form a proper fit around the GBA motherboard I pulled out of my original GBA (32-pin board if its relevant) when no other mods besides the Retroglow are installed. Tightening the screws to the point where it's as secure as possible without a 1-2mm gap between the shell pieces. With the buttons, the trigger corners bend upward and away from the buttons. I'm unsure if this is something thats defective with this shell, or its just that RetroSix shells have some proprietary button molds, but this unfortunately is leaving me in a position where I need to find a different shell that isn't going to allow dust to freely enter the sides of the shell or require me to overtighten components to the point I'm risking damage to the motherboard. Really disappointed, because it had phenomenal reviews.

Obviously there will be a difference between aftermarket and OEM shells.
Comes with Phillips screws instead of Y's for the outer shell.
This "feels" cheap, when I modded and reshelled my GBA, I went all RetroSix for buttons, silicone, shell. Not unhappy enough to reshell again, but next time I will go with a different brand.
This was an enjoyable swap out. No worries. 5 stars
