How To: Install Magic Screen kit into Game Gear

Recently, we had reviewed the Magic Screen kit from retroKAIstore, click here if you want to read it. The model we had was a model 1 board and they no longer sell it. The review remains valid still because their model 1.2 fixes every issue I had complaints on and way more. So I thought it was a good idea to give anyone who just ordered a 1.2 Magic Screen kit to have instructions on the ready. This is us just collecting the best set of instructions and putting them straight in your veins. SO LISTEN UP!

First Thing’s First. Your Game Gear Must Be A Compatible Model.

You need either a VA0 or VA1.

For VA1, you can tell from the outside. Look at the sticker on the back. If it says Game Gear Model 2110, you have a VA1

VA0 is a European model. You will have to open it and check what you have inside. Click this to find out: Game Gear Schematics = VA0

You Have A Compatible Model, Now Order Your Kit.

Click here to order from the retroKAIstore. They are based in France, but they ship fast and affordably worldwide. They package stuff very well too, so no worries of the screen cracking.

The Order Has Arrived, Time to Install It!
