Here's a shot of my backlit Gameboys (and GB Boy Colour) running in the dark.

I have both a modded GBA and a GBBC and I prefer the GBBC for playing GBC games. The screen area is bigger than on a GBA, and the form factor gives me muh nostalgia quotient.

I even did a front light mod for my original Gameboy Color but honestly I was kind of disappointed with the results. For the cost of parts and materials I could have bought a GBBC with change to spare, and the GBBC is a much better experience all around.

I still hold out hope that a viable, seamless GBC backlight screen kit will eventually appear on the scene, but I don't know when that could be. Even if it were to cost $100 I'd probably still spring for it, but the GBBC is the next best thing until then and I only paid $30 for mine.

My boys.
