Vetro Gaming has a motto: Modernizing the Game Boy, Enhancing Your Nostalgia. A bold claim for a small company, but not out of the realm of possibility. Today I’m going to be diving into what that means by dissecting the drop-in LCD backlight kit that they sell for the Game …

Today’s review is the EZ Flash Omega Definitive Edition. The GBA is a very personal handheld for me. I had a GBA that I shared with my foster mom when I was 16 or so. She would make me and my foster brother get up Saturday mornings with her and …

We’ve all seen cool DIY projects on social media or somewhere on the internet: someone takes a Sega Dreamcast memory card, guts it and turns it into a mini-game boy. A lot of us would love to make something like that but just don’t have the time or skills to …

Today’s review is an interesting one. As of the time of writing this, there aren’t loads of people covering this product. The product in question is the GB Operator from Epilogue. I know, Epilogue sounds an awful like Analogue, but they’re not exactly in the same wheelhouse. So, instead of …

If you’re not following @QuestArrest and @theretroroomroo on Twitter, you probably should be. You’ll see why as this article progresses. You get a video of me unboxing his first physical game, an interview, and how you can play the game right now if you don’t need to own something physically …

Today we’ve got some instructions on how to assemble a Game Boy Macro. Recently we reviewed some 3D printed faceplates for DS Lites that help convert them into a Macro with ease. If you want to read about it, click here. If you already have one or maybe have one …

We love to feature products from everywhere that we can get our hands on. This doesn’t only mean big companies sending us “expensive” items to review. This also means small companies with inexpensive items to check out. And sometimes, it even means getting to sink our teeth into products from …

If you have recently read our review covering RetroSix’s CleanPower Regulator Board and bought it, you may have some questions. This guide will walk you through how simple it really is to install one of these regulator boards. And if you don’t have one yet, you’ll see it’s simple and …

We talk a lot about handhelds here on Hackinformer. Recently I’ve personally been reviewing products for different Game Boy models. Today we’re covering the CleanPower Regulator Board from retrosix! This $10 add on is designed for the DMG Game Boy. What does it do? What is it for? How easy …
