After buying the Board, the case, membranes, and buttons, you’re probably looking around $85 for a USB c rechargeable Gameboy with a ips screen. Not a bad value.
Can I flash custom firmware to the fpga to have a little fpga tinkering machine with screen? Is the gameboy fpga core open source?
Unknown, if you want that info you should probably email funny playing directly.
Its kind of incredible how deep funnyplaying is into GB(A) replacement parts that its beginning to actually manufacture its own gameboys outright.

So is this pretty much an Analogue Pocket with a less good screen?

No, the analogue pocket does multiple systems and with shipping is going to cost close to $300. This is basically a Gameboy color with those mods and no electrolytic caps.

Got it, thanks. Still a cool project but I’d love a Pocket

Can it drive higher res screens?
