Description
This board allows you to charge the battery via USB-C cable or connect headphones with USB-C or a jack adapter to USB-C in your Game Boy Advance SP (Also compatible with Nintendo DS).
FEATURES
- Plastic cap made by filament 3D printer. It fits well with the original GBA SP case. (1)
- Charge your Game Boy Advance SP via USB-C, compatible with:
-
- USB power banks
- USB-A chargers
- USB-C chargers (2)
- USB-C PD chargers (normal speed, not fast) (2)
- USB-A to USB-C cables
- USB-C to USB-C cables (2)
-
- Play sound using USB-C headphones or a USB-C to 3.5mm Jack adapter.
(1) The plastic cap is made for the original GBA SP shell. It may be compatible with other shells, but it depends on how similar they are to the original.
(2) This feature has been recently added but has a limitation. Previously, USB-C to USB-C cables were not compatible and did not charge the GBA SP. They can now be used, but they work only when connected in one orientation. This means that when you connect the USB-C cable face up, it will charge the battery correctly, and the orange LED will turn on. However, when connected face down, it will not function.
(Supporting double-sided connection disables the speaker audio. So, this is the best option to keep the audio functional while making USB-C to USB-C cables/chargers compatible. You can see a video in the “Additional content (videos)” tab.)

NOTES
Due to differences between monitors, the picture may not accurately reflect the actual color of the plastic cap.
The USB-C earphones or USB-C to 3.5mm Jack adapter must be without any DAC inside, meaning it must be an analog device; otherwise, it won’t work. For example, the following work perfectly:
- OnePlus adapter
- Huawei adapter
- USB-C Splitter: model 1, model 2 (Audio and charging at the same time)
