Even way back when I knew the lack of backlight was awful.

Well see I had had a GameGear.

It's true that the thing would run for like ten minutes on six AAs but it did have a backlight.

BTW I'm convinced they just made enough game to last until the batteries ran out and then just stopped. No ending, no level 6, they just stopped. It's probably also why they never bothered to make the hang glider work. They figured nobody would get there anyway.

No I agree.

I loved my GBA even in spite of the lack of backlight.

The gameboy player for the GC, that's how. I never even owned a GBA but have lots of the games for it.

There's a while bunch of mods for the original GBA. You can put a GBA SP screen or a Chinese alternative screen in it if you trim the shell a bit. There's also new IPS screens out there people use now. It's not a hard mod, but if you don't want to do it you can buy one.

Buy an SP. Playing without a backlight is downright barbaric in the year 2019 of our Lord.

I use to always look for the right lighting outside. Or play in a vehicle that was parked in the driveway

I own a SP. It has a backlight. It's also the most awful device to hold for more than 10 minutes.
