Thanks. I got the shell from China for $13.20. It came with black buttons, a new screen protector, silicone conductive pads, hinges, and screws. The only downside is that it took 2 weeks to get to the U.S..

Not gonna lie... taking it apart and putting it back together in its new shell was a pain in the @ss. Took me 2.5 hours to do it because I kept opening and closing it every time I realized I forgot to put something back, or when I realized I was missing a screw. And the hinges were the biggest pain.

I bought a 2nd shell set and finally finished that 2nd SP up this morning. I used the green motherboard laying around in my previous pic, along with the LCD laying on top of it (also in the previous pic).

These particular hinges were a pain in the @ss because they were aftermarket and defective. I had to trim them with a box cutter. I ended up cutting myself a billion times because of how small those damned hinges were. But I'm liking the outcome.

Played the Sims tonight. Have a character I made based off of Sabrina from the Chilling Adventures of Sabrina on Netflix

I played some Skyrim this weekend. It was good I'm tightening the lose threads to try and up my persuasion and get kudos with the Jarls (nord kings). I liked the previous game more.

I'm playing Pokemon Gold on my new GB Boy Colour. I had to replace the battery in my Pokemon Gold game because my game wasn't saving. Have to change my other game boy game batteries, too, like Kirby's Dream Land. Bought a bunch of them to solder onto my games.

I like my GB Boy Colour. It's a cool Chinese knockoff of the Game Boy Color that lets you play your cartridges. Its screen is backlit, so it lights up. It's basically like playing on a GBC with a lit up screen and only costs $30.

Anyone have a recommendation for a good quality wireless mouse preferably one that's good with gaming on laptops ?

Get either Razor or Logitech. Those are the only brands, beside MS, I'd get. The extra buttons on my razor mouse actually does stuff like slow the cursor and stuff. Plus the colors are pretty cool. Good luck!

I'm playing Skyrim and I decided to do all the side quests before I do one of the final missions which includes a sit down of all the jarls and whoever else.

Played Hexalogic for a bit, such a great little game, only costs $2.99 and there's over 90 levels. It's basically sudoku but really pretty and relaxing

I love sodoku! I should check out that game.

Looks like it’s only $1.99 on the App Store (on iPhone), so it seems pretty cheap. I wonder why the steam version is $2.99? Can’t play it on my laptop though anyway because it’s not available for Mac and I don’t have bootcamp to dual boot my system. 😥

You should try it on the iPhone, I'm sure it works good for it I got it for my Nintendo Switch

Playing a lot of Stardew Valley lately, it's fall in my game now so I'm growing pumpkins 🎃

Looks like the new Switch has new (different) hardware in it. The battery in the new switch is the same as the battery in the original switch; nothing changed there. It’s been confirmed. So it seems like the hardware was made more secure and more efficient. Not sure how this will affect gameplay, though.

Doesn't the new one have a longer battery life?

It does. The main chip runs more efficiently, so it draws less power from the battery, but the battery is exactly the same.
