GBA SP Workshop with Kris Carlson

GBA SP Workshop with Kris Carlson

The GameBoy Advance SP is arguably the best handheld of it's time, but it had a fatal flaw...that horribly dark screen that made it nearly impossible to see by today's standards. So why don't we change that and give the the whole thing a facelift!

Join Kris, AKA GameDad as he guides you through a complete reshell and IPS screen upgrade of your GBA SP - featuring the MGC logo and a a variety of colors to choose from! The workshop will be one and a half hours in length to ensure everyone has ample time for the mod, and will provide step-by-step guidance and hands-on help with how to swap the shell on your GBA SP and swap out the original display for a modern and bright IPS one. Shells, and Screens will be provided for you. Tools and silicone mats to work on will be provide for use by Midwest Gaming Classic and must be left at the workshop upon the classes completion.

Workshop Requirements:
Participants will bring their own working GBA SP to be reshelled and modded.

Skill Requirements:
While this is a beginner level class, we do recommend that participants have a familiarity with tools or have a parent or friend who can assist them, as some of the internal parts and pieces can be small and require some dexterity to add or remove.

Workshop Price: $85
