NOTES:
- We recommend only pairing these shells with RetroSix button sets. Triggers from any other company may have fitment issues with the shell.
- Prestige shells may need some trimming near the start/select area inside shell.
- Shell can still be used for regular GBAs without IPS screens. Just purchase regular sized screen and be aware of having to position/secure the original screen down centered in view due to the opening being larger than normal.
- Not recommended/compatible with Laminated LCD kits.
- The shells feature self-threading screws as the screw posts are not pre-threaded. To avoid damage, do not over-tighten, as this may cause cracks. Refunds are not given in these instances.
- Applicable console text is present on top of shell.
- Clear variants will be more frosted than crystal clear. We have Crystal Clear shells available here.
- Created by RetroSix.
PEARL SHELLS + CLEANING:
- Heavy use on Pearl (Painted) shells may cause discoloration/deterioration over time.
-
To clean the Pearl shells use a clean white microfiber cloth and solvent of your choice. When using a colored microfiber cloth, the solvent can dissolve the dye and stain your shell.
