RetroSix Game Boy Original IPS Screen Kit

If using this new screen, we highly recommend using RetroSix’s GBO CleanPower to provide enough power to your console.

The kit comes pre-built with a bracket, LCD, front board, back board and ribbons. You will need to solder the original speaker or purchase one of our replacement speakers for the front board. Skill level 1!

The original Game Boy, the revolutionary hand-held 8-bit console released April 21, 1989, sold over 118 million consoles worldwide.

This brand new IPS kit comes with a new PCB to replace the entire front PCB. A brand new IPS screen of the exact same original resolution as the Game Boy original screen.

• Remove screen protector carefully and slowly (screen is only lightly stuck to bracket so be careful not to pull it away from support bracket)
• Put screen assembly in front shell, using the two holes to locate and lock into position
• Insert D-Pad, A, B and rubbers then place new screen PCB on top and screw into place
• Lift black tab, insert small ribbon from screen into PCB then push down black tab
