A friend gave me two GameBoys, one of which he wanted back after the repair. The other one was dead and I could keep it. So after a quick testing I determined that only the display board was broken due to quite severe battery damage. While maybe salvageable I decided to use a drop in IPS LCD replacement board, as the original DMG screen is pretty abysmal anyway. This mod is relatively easy to install, and requires no soldering!
