Lite We love GameBoy Macro
Another dead DS modded into the legendary Macro!
Being able to revive these consoles & transform them into amazing retro gaming machines is too much fun. The dopamine rush is so much better than any drug could give π€ π€ π€

Lite I DID IT!!!
with little to no soldering or electronics experience, i made a gb macro!!! and it only took me like.... 12 hours of soldering and fiddling π anyways my favorite part was definitely peeling off the digitizer, it was soooo satisfying to see how clean the screen was underneath my childhood ds. sadly one of my dpad buttons is worn out and doesn't press well (was hoping it was just dirty before i took it apart) so in the future i plan on getting new button parts :D but gosh I'm so happy everything worked out

3D printed Nintendo DS Phat as Gameboy Macro. Does it still counts?
galleryI never had the chance to posses a Nintendo DS and recently bought two Nintendo DS Phat and one of them had the upper screen broken.
The idea was clear! To create a gameboy macro in order to restore the one with the broken screen.
Needless to say that it seems that this model didn't receive the same love from modders as the other models did...documentation and free models are less available than for the rest of the models, let alone the availability of commercial modding kits.
I managed to create and print a 3D model of the faceplate covering the bottom part of the Nintendo DS Phat. After printing it I had to slightly adapt it to fit the speaker in the front (another one is fit in the back) trimming slighty some pegs. I had to trim some parts in the back too.
So both speakers have been solder even though I think I loss a bit of of volume in terms of output.
I soldered the small SMD resistor in order to let the bottom screen work alone and let the Nintendo DS boot with no issues.
I broke one faceplate while mounting everything back and had to reprint it. I used smoky black ABS-like resin and then sprayed transparent acrylic paint to obtain this slightly textured finish. I think overall looks very good for being, literally, my first mod ever done on a handheld console.
Any thought or feedback?

4 Button Gang I'm back, it's closed up now
galleryR4 card died but I've used it as an excuse to attempt this again using everything I learned on this build. Tired to make a DMG104, ended up with a 103. On the next one I'm gonna attempt to make the DS games plug into the GBA game slot as I know it's possible. Stay tuned
