Great work, especially for a first project! Very clean.

Congrats! Nice and clean build. Look at that battery monitor image! So cool!

Do you have a link to the screen you used for this build?

The screen was included with kite's saio, but I think it's the same as this one -> http://s.aliexpress.com/EfYRfEje

The battery monitor is also a kite script built into his RetroPie image.

Sharp, nice

SQL,

Looks nice! And I really like that smoked out case. It looks like you were going for the all black theme for the GBZ, and I just bought the black replacement silicone buttons from kitsch-bent for my wife's GBZ and they are sweet, and it is a black start/select button. I am at work, don't have a link right now, but I thought I'd mention it if you were interested, it would complete the look.

Hey thanks, I was going for the all black theme. Let me know if you like the feel/action of the all silicone buttons buttons I was hesitant to order those not knowing, I was thinking of ordering the black start/select from https://www.deadpanrobot.co.uk/game-boy ... g-zero-blk and their black screen surround. I ordered the black GBZ screen surround from Kitchbent but I haven't installed it as I find the black border extremely thin. I wish @Dominator was back in the scene. His absence has left a big void. Would have loved to have ordered a black gbz screen when I had the chance. A great advantage of the smoked out case is that the LED's shine through perfectly.

Nice build! Amazing! Thanks for sharing.
~This is the aesthetic I'm going for with my build too! All Black! Where'd you get the blank cartridge from?
I got the black buttons from Deadpan, they're sweet.
