How do I Color a Gameboy?

Gameboys are a part of video gaming's past. They give many gamers a sense of nostalgia as they remember what got them so hooked on the medium in the first place. Designing and customizing the Gameboy cases has become a bit of a trend. This turns a rather dull, old, gray device into a vibrant-looking machine. It makes for an excellent gift as well.

Things You'll Need

Small flathead screwdriver sized for eyeglasses
Philips-head screwdriver
Spray paint
Paint
Tape

Instructions

- 1
  Remove the Gameboy's outer case. If your Gameboy has three-headed screws, use the flathead screwdriver sized for eyeglasses. Bending the screwdriver will make this easier.
- 2
  Loosen the screws that hold the electronic components to the outer case. There will also be a connector that goes from the motherboard to the LCD screen. This can be detached by removing a few pins.
- 3
  Tape up the entire LCD screen so you won't spill paint on it, which could render the Gameboy useless.
- 4
  Paint the case to your heart's content.
