The 2.8 inch display is software-fitted to perfectly fill the window of the LEGO® Game Boy™ set, providing a full and crisp image. Volume and brightness are both managed via custom buttons at the original wheel positions, and the original LEGO power switch turns the BlockBoy on and off. To ensure an authentic feel, the D-pad and A\/B buttons use membrane switches, just like the original Game Boy. On top of that, the V2 features a Showcase Mode. Once enabled, the software automatically cycles through your Game Boy and Game Boy Color games, booting a new title every minute to showcase the classic intro demos in a seamless, continuous loop. Powered via a rear USB port to keep the sides cable-free, it is the perfect solution for a clean and active display.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"section-title\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul style=\"list-style: none; padding-left: 0;\" class=\"spec-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 10px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcessor:\u003c\/strong\u003e ESP32-S3 N16R8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 10px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDisplay:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.8 inch TFT LCD, fitted to fill the full 2.5 inch window of the LEGO Game Boy set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 10px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattery:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1000mAh rechargeable in custom cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 10px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mono 20x30mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 10px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShowcase mode:\u003c\/strong\u003e Via rear USB port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"padding: 10px 0; border-bottom: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharging:\u003c\/strong\u003e USB-A to USB-C cable.
