The original Game Boy, the revolutionary hand-held 8-bit console released April 21, 1989, sold over 118 million consoles worldwide. The Game Boy Pocket is a redesigned version of the original Game Boy having the same features. It was released in 1996. Notably, this variation is smaller and lighter. It came in seven different colors; red, yellow, green, black, clear, silver, blue, and pink.
Following on from their super successful GBA, GBO and Game Gear shells, RetroSix continued their quest for the perfect retro console collection with their GBP shell.
This shell is produced using ABS (from Japan), as oppose to all other shells on the market being made of cheap injection moulded plastics.
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 moulds 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-moulded shells.
RetroSix’ shells are drop-in IPS screens can simply break off a few small tabs, and drop in with no other modification whatsoever! Simply place your IPS screen in central (use their IPS bracket for perfect alignment).
On top of that, the battery compartment allows for a drop-in fit of the CleanJuice without any cutting required.
Once you compare RetroSix’ shell with all the others on the market you will never look back!
The kit comes with everything you need to fully re-shell your console:
- Front shell
- Back shell
- Battery covers
- Screws & Sticker
- Glass Lens (Dark Grey)
- Rubbers (Black)
- Buttons (Same color as shell)
