If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
AI-generated comics aren't allowed.

Oh man, my original Game Boy Color was "Atomic Purple", the clear purple shell. Somewhere over the years I lost or sold it. I got another GBC later just plain yellow.

Last weekend I reshelled it in a third party atomic purple shell. My nostalgia is happy :) I see it and go "that's my gameboy!"

Now to save up for an Everdrive and toss my old games on it. Eventually I want to do the works, LCD screen with frame blending and "pixel grid" so it looks legit (or maybe just a front or backlight on the OG screen, as the screen's look is a big part of the nostalgia for me), improved sound out, and usb-c charging. But for now, a basic shell swap is good enough for me.

I've also got clear blue shells for my joycons when I replace the joysticks with hall effect ones. Have all the parts, just need to find the time. Joycon work looks like a pain in the ass from the guides and videos I've checked.

I did the USB c mod on my wiiu game pad. The convenience is exceptional

Check out the half reflective, half transmissive screen from CGS if you want a backlit screen that looks close to the original.
