![]() For this project I installed a 3.5mm socket for a sound signal that can be controlled via the volume dial and a pair of RCA sockets for a direct line-out. This kind of mod is one of the most popular for the Game Boy and provides additional audio connections giving a cleaner, louder line-out compared to the standard headphone socket. This is the best stage for drilling any holes for switches or Prosound mods. ![]() What follows is how I go about a typical project but it is not intended to be a definitive guide. I am no expert and am still learning as I go with the help of the online community. ![]() I took photos throughout the process and have done my best to put into words how I went about reviving a tired old handheld into something unique. So I figured it's high time I talked through one of my projects, in this case the Baby Boy Blue created recently for Nintendo Life. ![]() They may want to know how I fitted something, what parts I used, where I got them from and how difficult it was. People might want to know what it is I have done to the Game Boy, how it differs from the original, what that switch does or what that socket's for. Over the last couple of years, since getting hooked on the Game Boy modification scene and sharing my creations on Instagram, I have been asked a lot of questions. In this unique one-off feature, esteemed Game Boy modder Joe Heaton - also known as Joeteach - takes us through an entire Game Boy custom job.
