    Default Gameboy SP Replacement Case Generic vs OEM

    I just purchased a used Gameboy SP. It's a little scratched up (case not screen), therefore a case replacement. So how are those generic cases compared to the OEM Nintendo one's? Thanks.

    they are pretty close to the OEM cases. the only thing I dont like is the screws, if you keep your original it will look complete also transfer your Original sticker.

    They are very close. The molds are exactly the same. Main difference is the color is never right, it's close, but not right. The buttons are not quite the same color either. Also, the little stick ons that cover the screws are not the same, look cheesier. The system sticker that goes on the bottom is really one for China, not USA. Transferring from old to new might be difficult though, without destroying the original.
