I recently posted a patina Zelda Game Boy Micro restoration, and I wanted to show off another Zelda-inspired design I’ve been working on. This faceplate takes inspiration from the new Zelda-themed Switch 2 edition. I think it looks pretty good on the Micro, especially paired with the right shell and LEDs.
Always cool seeing how much you can do with such a tiny console.

Huge shoutout to retrogameEVO on Etsy for working with me on this design. I can’t thank them enough for helping bring this idea to life. They were great to work with, and I’m really happy with how the faceplate turned out!

New to the Micro this year! Never owned one growing up as I was already a couple years out of school when it released. Not only that but I was more a Playstation guy, so I was carrying a psp already.

I do own a couple original advance and SPs, but like others have said this is one of the most portable handhelds and holds up very well for its age. Mine stays in the lunch bag, it comes in clutch during the slow work days!

I was always impressed by how native the advances felt when playing some of the games ported from NES. The screen on these are impressive albeit the size, but you almost forget about it once the game loads up. Lol

So, which advance games do you all feel play the best on the Micro, or are just your favorites in general?

Thanks for having me.
