Where are the buttons!

Post by Darkplume84 » Thu Nov 17, 2016 6:05 pm

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know where I cant get maroon buttons like the original gameboy? Also a grey power switch button. I cant seem to find them anywhere :(. Any tips on where to look? Id really appreciate it.

Check out sudomod market or kitsch-bent. ;)
Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to inform you that I am currently moving very far away, and therefore I am very busy.

UPDATE: I am still alive! My ISP is setting up my internet on the 19th of January at my new place, explaining my offline-ness.

If you write me a PM, I will very likely take some time to respond.

Also, my 2nd build will soon go on, so if you've been following it, please stay tuned! :)

Many thanks for your understanding!

I had trouble as well. It seems to have gotten worse over the past 2 months. Ebay seems to be the only market at the moment. Search for DMG buttons.

I've had good luck buying from AliExpress. I was able to get an aftermarket DMG01 case, extra buttons, the silicone rubber pads you want to back the buttons, as well as replacement speakers, all from one retailer for really good prices. The shipping takes a while because it ships ePacket from China.

Edit to add the link to the AliExpress retailer: https://www.aliexpress.com/store/group/ ... 0.0.ewO5vL
