IPS replacement display kits have taken the retro handheld game console scene by storm...and now there are two options to pick from when it comes to the original Game Boy. So between the Funnyplaying and RIPS v3 kits, which one is better?

Be sure to check out Pad Chennington's unboxing and impressions video on one of the handhelds I built in this episode! [link coming soon!]

These are my favorite flush cutters -- they work very well and are actually surprisingly inexpensive (affiliate link): https://amzn.to/3kwfU3F

Thanks Colin, A great video as always. I have numerous Gameboys, games and flashcarts, My original DMG needs some love so time to get it and the parts ordered.
