Very well crafted, beautiful made Gameboy 🙂
Really happy with how it turned out and worth the wait.
Great communication from the seller, helped me out while I was asking a LOT of questions on Instagram but got all the answers right away.
I am super happy with how it turned out, thank you so much!
Fantastic service once again. Went for some audio mods this time, and they do make a difference. Thanks for discussing the options with me, and look forward to doing business again!
Excellent seller, timely delivery , extremely satisfied with product.
Thanks for the great custom GBA! I bought it as a birth gift for my new son (to have when he is old enough), and look forward to giving him the chance to explore the classics on it like I did back in the day.
I ordered the GameBoy Slate Model from BOYSMODS and they delivered! Outstanding quality and yes – it is definitely on the pricey side. But, if you love the GBA as much as I do, and you want to have something really special that you gift to yourself, then the Slate is the right Game Boy for you. I got a whole slew of additional goodies and games, since it took a little longer, because of a faulty part, which was sent to BOYSMODS. So, no fault of their own. Very nice communication all around, without any problems.
Ordered a full black Game Boy Advance with a new speaker and protective case. Arrived within 5 weeks as promised.
Love the clean look and the display is spectacular.
Works great on AA batteries for several hours.
Case is nice and compact, ideal for storage even at home.
Happy customer
Excellent work! It took bit less than a month to make a perfect customised Game Boy Advance. The quality of the work and the components used is outstanding.
Very good looking GameBoy Color original GameBoy style, works perfectly. Only one small nitpick would be that the buttons didn’t work perfect when I first used it. But this issue solved itself after a few minutes. I had to “break in” the buttons. So a solid 4/5 stars, and a lot of fun to be had in games.
The classic GBA was my very first own console, so I decided to gift myself a premium modded GBA as a Birthday Present. I chose an Orange Shell, IPS Display with basically all Mods possible, going from better Audio, to LEDs on Buttons and so on. After 4 weeks the package arrived with the System and I am extremely happy with my purchase. Everything works flawlessly and its just pure joy to use. I also ordered an EZ Flash Card with my GBA to have all my Games on one cardridge, which is just fantastic. Absolutely lovely work. If you aren’t into modding yourself or are afraid of messing things up, BOYSMODS is the way to go.
I wanted to get the ultimate GBA SP, and then Boy delivered.
The 3.0 IPS screen is really cool, the global quality is really satisfying, although audio modding didn’t change a lot, and you may want to un solder the cable so that the screen is no more tactile.
Also, I don’t know if it’s the shell or the buttons, but if you press A or B and turn it ever so slightly, it will get stuck until you undo the rotation.
Other than that, it’s the perfect GBA SP and I’m pretty happy with it.
Super nice customer service, answering all my 100 questions. Super friendly and understanding with very quick respons time. Highly recommended.
Description in one word: Phenomenal!
The seller was very friendly and helped me throughout the entire process.
They were very friendly and informative when the configuration had incompatible parts.
The quality of the Slate is outstanding. The metal front and the dark grey backside are a perfect match.
I have to mention that the new trigger button on the backside was a bit stiff after unpacking the device, but they improved after pressing them for a couple of minutes. If you are looking for a high-quality custom build, you are at the perfect place.
I would definitely recommend!
I’ve sent some questions via Insta DM and got super quick and kind responses. Bought a NES type Game Boy Advance and received it 3 days later in the mail. Super satisfied with my order, the Game Boy feels super sturdy with nice feeling buttons and an amazing looking IPS display. Also came with a free game and loaded batteries.
Incredible work from BOYSMODS. Great advice from the beginning, BOYSMODS take good care of your dream and guide you through every step. About the product, the quality is incredible, I am really happy about this GBA.
Ps : you have a lot of good surprise with the GBA 🙌🙌🙌
I bought the Gameboy classic for my little girl as a present for her swimming diploma and BOYSMODS added some nice little gifts. What a nice service minded journey this has been. The build is top notch. The purchase is super nicely secured packed and delivered within the agreed term. Have patience it’s worth waiting for. At arrival it will definitely put a big smile on your face. The hell with 5 stars I give this company 10 stars. Well done and I definitely will shop again. GreetZ L.
From start to finish, BOYSMODS was there to answer my questions and guide me trough my dream mod…and boy was it worth it!
Amazing old school Game&Watch style GBA mod!
A retro look and feel with modern sounds and sights…thank you BOYSMODS!!
Will definitely come back for more…
THANK YOU!! (and you out there reading this review: stop reading start modding with BOYSMODS!)
I’m very happy about my new GBA, thank you BOYSMODS.
Very good client contact. When my GBA arrived there was a touch-sensor/screen bug and BOYSMODS propose me to fix it myself or to ship it back, so he can fix it himself.
So now i’m thinking about buying a GBC.
Keep up the good work.
I am very satisfied with my 2 Game Boys! They work perfectly and now I can enjoy my favorite games again.
Fantastic service and extremely customer friendly. I had some questions about how to make an order and got an answer almost immediately. I was kept well informed about my order and the fact that BOYSMODS is also hyped about the end-result made me even more excited.
The product is fantastic, exactly what I’ve ordered. Superb quality! The screen is top quality, the shell is beautiful, the buttons are great and all work well; just stiff enough that they click comfortably. Everything is beautifully put together and worth the money.
Friendly, helpful service and excellent workmanship.
He understood exactly the look I was going for and even made suggestions to put it more inline with the look I wanted.
The end result was finished to a high standard and it looks amazing!
Will definitely be using this site in the future for a Game Boy Advance too 🙂
Configured my own GBA. Chose a mostly black design so might be a boring pic for some. Arrived sooner than expected, especially considering the holiday month.
Amazingly sturdy/good build quality. IPS holo screen looks phenomenal.
Definitely worth the price! I might be back soon for another purchase…
Oh yeah and kind customer support as well 🙂
I am very happy with the gamecartridge and the fast shipping. The cartridge was well packaged and I also received some nice Pokémon stickers as an extra, I will definitely order something again from BOYSMODS.
Hi !
Very happy from my order, good communication, good delay.
Thank you Boy !
I had a great experience getting my beloved Game Boy Advance SP modded. BOYSMODS is not only very technically talented, but takes the time to think with you and find the perfect mod solution. Would definitely buy from here again!
Excellent service and sympathetic seller. Game Boy modder with knowledge!
Quality build and delivered on time. GBA Midnight Blue with clicky triggers – just do it! 🙂
I’m not a big retro-game expert, but I think this is really cool! So I ordered a console and I’m not disappointed. Everything is well done; the site, the tracking and of course the console itself. In short, there is no reason to hesitate. You will not regret it. I highly recommend it!
Very happy with my Game Boy Advance. The color scheme is amazing and the build is perfect, the GBA looks factory fresh.
I prefer the GBA form factor over the SP, but the lack of backlight was always a problem. This GBA solves that problem with a crisp, adjustable screen and on top of that it has cleaner audio without the hiss. The buttons, including clicky triggers, feel solid and playing games is a joy.
Customer service is great. My questions were answered promptly and unboxing was a pleasant experience in itself. You really notice the care that goes into a build.
5 stars aren’t enouch to review BOYSMODS. Very friendly service, knows his stuff, likes to think along and does everything is his power to fulfill your wishes.
Specific Game Boy Advance SP housing not available in the shop? No option for TV-output via composite? No problem for BOYSMODS!
Where other shops dropped out BOYSMODS continued, making my dream handheld become reality for a very affordable price.
Thanks alot!
Love it. The console itself looks super clean. The display and the USB-C battery makes it feel like a modern console, especially with the option to adjust the brightness on the fly.
I got clicky triggers which were a bit weird at first but now I would take them again everytime.
I have normal speakers which are imo good enough but I didn’t remember that the OG GBA volume is so low compared to modern phones/handhelds. Would probably choose an upgrade the next time.
Had to slightly correct something on my unit but BOYSMODS responded quickly and told me what to do so it was an easy fix.
Oh and the case is super nice.
Can only recommend, would buy again
The Game Boy Advance is a wonderful console however playing games on it is difficult because of the hard to see screen. Not anymore! With this mod the GBA looks fantastic. Games will have amazing colors en clearity.
The audio boost is a nice touch and in all black the system looks amazing.
Great service from BOYSMODS! Will buy again 🙂
My boyfriend wanted to upgrade his childhood Gameboy Advance. Together with Boy he choose an awesome design. His Game Boy now seems brand new with so many cool extra features like adjustable brightness and an USB-C portal. We are totally in love with it!!! Thanks for your service and talent, Boy!
It’s amazing to me how far modding has brought my childhood’s favorite console. The IPS screen looks sharp and the amp makes the sound better and louder, leading to a superb gameplay experience. All of this paired with someone like B, who was super professional and helpful during the whole process, really makes me wanna come back soon to build myself a Game Boy Color to complete my collection.
First time buyer at BOYSMODS. Boy did a fantastic job with my Game Boy Color. I’m really happy with it, it looks good and works perfectly. I ordered the rechargeable battery pack and Boy called me that the rechargeable batteries these days were better than the battery pack so he suggested to not take the battery pack. To me that shows the love for buildings things like this; don’t go just for the money, but provide the best service possible.
BOYSMODS allowed me to go wild on the design of my custom Game Boy Advance. Upon receiving this beauty I fell in love. For my first time seeing the screen was an eye opener, now I can not play my games without such crisp colours. The audio quality is superb as well as the TV-out option! Great communication and swift delivery. Next time I might try a different configuration, it’s addicting!
This is the 3rd Game Boy I bought from BOYSMODS and I couldn’t be happier. Quality is amazingly good, the attention to detail is extreme and the delivery is always super fast 🧡
The build was flawless, pricing was fair and the communication was good.
I ordered the XL Game Boy game twice, my two favorite games from childhood. “Probotector 2” and “Kirby’s Dreamland 2”. The order was processed immediately and it didn’t take long for the cartridges to reach me. The quality is very good, the 3D printing of the sleeves is superb and the high-gloss labels too, I can only recommend it to anyone who loves the hobby and collecting passion for “Game Boy” like I do. This upgrades my collection immensely and is a really unusual decoration ❤️
I’ve been looking for quite some time to actually find a way to properly experience GBA games on a next level, and thus I found BOYSMODS. I ordered my GBA on the 29th of January and received it today which is the 19th of February. The wait is definitely worth it! The mods are professionally placed, BOYSMODS is very careful with the delicate GBA parts and look completely mint. The shell looks amazing, the buttons work as they should and so does the brightness select that comes with the IPS v2 screen.
I’ve been having an absolute blast playing GBA games and being absolutely astounded by the amazing IPS screen quality. The colors pop out, there are no pixels. It’s very high res and high quality. The CleanJuice mod works properly as well. BOYSMODS is very social and will always reply to your messages when he’s able to, he helps and he doesn’t leave you in the dark about things. He is very helpful and polite. Amazing purchase, couldn’t want it any other way. Definitely recommended if you’re looking for quality. – Stijn
Very good product! I’m happy to play this Advance with matt black shell and be able to control the brightness of the screen. I can finally play now in dark places.
The colours compared to the standard Game boy Advance without the IPS screen are way better and more enjoyable to my eyes.
I am very happy with the service and delivery. My questions were answered very kindly and the product was shipped very carefully. I definitely recommend making a purchase on this site!
Very nice quality and great service.
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. BOYSMODS gave me a really great experience all along the way of building my ultimate Gameboy Advance. Everything is built to perfection: LCD placement, button feel and overall construction is really top notch. Clean soldering and NOTHING IS LOOSE INSIDE. Great quality screws that do not take damage easily.
Zero dust, zero scratches, zero damage in shipping, and even received some awesome Pokemon stickers to put on my shockproof case.
I am really satisfied. I have tried many builders in Europe, but I always ended up being disappointed. Trust me when I say this guy DOES NOT DISAPPOINT.
Shipping was fast and secure packaged. Only a small delay due to the pandemic, which is no fault of the seller.
Overall I am super satisfied and this is the greatest Christmas present I ever gifted myself.
Will be coming back for sure, again and again.
If you’re hesitating, just go for it.
You will not be disappointed.
Greatest EU builder
When I finally found a modding company based in the Netherlands I instantly contacted BOYSMODS with a lot of questions about modding my GBA SP.
BOYSMODS answered all of my questions and told me there was a fully modded GBA available! This handheld was already fully cleaned and checked for original Nintendo hardware. And even better.. this one had the epic shell colour Purple! My decision was quickly made and with no regret. What a awesome build! It has a IPS v2 display, a screen lens in white, mixed button colours and a great 900 mAh battery!
What can a gamer ask for more?! The customer service was great, the price-quality was great. Actually there was nothing that wasn’t positive.
I received the track and trace and got my order the day in a well packaged box as registered mail.
I can really recommend BOYSMODS to everyone who is thinking about buying a modded handheld or letting BOYSMODS build you a custom Game Boy! I definitely will be shopping here again in the future. And people…worldwide shipping!
This custom piece has been the only item I’ve ordered from him but the experience was pleasant and he worked far quicker than I had imagined to get it put together and ship out! He was very kind and personable during our exchange and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a custom Game Boy of their own! Thanks again, man 👍
Nicely build Game Boy Pocket + IPS display. Safely packed and fast delivery. All works well and the rechargeable battery with USB-C is also a big plus. Happy customer!
My order came in today and I’m really happy with it. I own multiple pre-modded handhelds, and the quality on boysmods’ GBA is most excellent. Moreover, the communication is really good. Replies on every message, is very patient and polite. This is how you do business!
I’m very happy with the Game Boy Advance! The backlit screen, the sound with the CleanAmp Pro, USB-C connection and the clicky triggers are great! I’m also a big fan of the color. Good service, friendly, easily accessible and a lot of choice in the shop. Recommended!
I was looking for an Game Boy Advance and I’m glad I ended up at BOYSMODS. All my questions about different models and options have been answered very clearly. The visual configurators in the shop is a great feature for trying out different color combinations and seeing the final product before placing an order. I am super happy with the product. It is well assembled and neatly delivered. I’ll definitely be back for a second ultimate Game Boy.
Fantastic quality and service!
I’m obsessed with my new GBA and the build quality is amazing. This was shipped across countries in a quick and timely manner and was packaged with so much care. I highly recommend BOYSMODS if you’re looking for a perfect mod build. Will definitely order again!
Best purchase ever!
At first I didn’t know what quality to expect but this was much better than expected! Beautiful shell, everything works perfectly and excellent service. Keep you informed while waiting and give you (when necessary) advice on what else could be done.
A must for any gameboy fan!
