I did love my GBA but the OG version with no backlight was AWFUL. I modded mine to add one.
You can't appreciate how good the games are with the crappy OG dark screen.
Yep, I put an Afterburner mod in mine back in the day and got the best of both worlds: a screen you can see without standing outside at midday, and a comfortable, wide layout that doesn't make your hands cramp up.
