Gameboys, Flash Carts and backlights have all been designed to operate at 5volts. Here's what you need to know, needed to know, and how to fix what could have been a very expensive learning experience!
So you just installed a backlight to your GB Pocket and didn't destroy the LCD in the process? Congratulations! Your gameboy now has very short battery life, poor to no compatibility with flash carts, wild contrast variations in game, random losses of saved games.Īnd the Everdrive/EMS/Derp/Smartboy/Elcheapo cart you just spent good money on doesn't work on your modded pocket? But *RandomUser* from reddit said his works perfectly!
