A bit bored this afternoon, so I opened up Photoshop and made some Retro faceplates of the Gameboy Micro!
Please comment, and maybe post your own :)

Whoa!

Can you actually print those and put in your Micro?

Those are really good looking. If you were going for that old school look, then that is what you would want.

I love the first two. I hope real faceplates of them actually get released. Ha!

No dobt Nintendo will release a NES ? Famicom coloured one... I know they have a Famicom GBA Micro in Japan already...
A Game Gear one though! Wow! How ironic! Be nice if it was officially made with permission of Sega though!

Thanks for the comments guys ;)
I hold a special place in my heart for the SNK one, I'd love to paly Metal Slug Advance (or the announced MS 1,2,3 and X) on a GBM with that faceplate!

Fuck Jesus, praise McBacon. :devilish:
Those are sweet. I'd buy 2 micro's just so i could have one with the GB plate and one with the Game Gear Plate.
Sweet.

I guess that would have to be a "virtual" faceplate :D

I'd love to have a real Game Gear faceplate for my Micro! <3 So much money can be made in this for someone who can produce real ones. I'd definitely buy one.

You should seriously see if someplace that does Gameskins would print these for you - I know that there was one place that allowed custom graphics, but I don't think they did GBA Micro skins last time I checked.
But if you ever DO get these three printed, LET US KNOW! I'd buy all three.

If these were any cooler, I'd have to fucking wear goggles to prevent my eyes from exploding due to exposure to too much awesome. Game Gear and Neo Geo Pocket Color FTW.

I'm going to make a new template. One that has the screen at a true 240x160. I need... A Heineken.
EDIT!! The Heinie worked fine. The template can be downloaded here (http://www.dontpressstart.com/upload/micro_template.psd).
EDIT AGAIN!! Ico (http://www.dontpressstart.com/upload/micro_ico.jpg), MGS3 (The Sorrow) (http://www.dontpressstart.com/upload/micro_mgs3.jpg),The Venture Bros. (season two) (http://www.dontpressstart.com/upload/micro_venturebros.jpg)

Oh, man. I want a King of the Cosmos faceplate! Now I am pissed off because this doesn't exist. Damn you, DonMarco!

Sorry for bumping a super old thread, but does anyone know where to find a game boy micro template? Finally got a clear faceplate, but I need a template....

Same here. I've never even noticed this thread before now, but it sounds awesome! Hope someone can dig up the pics!

Where'd you get a clear gbm faceplate? I've wanted one for awhile.

I bought it from a guy on ebay named superspudz2000. He doesn't have any up right now, but did list more after I bought mine....even if he upped the price a little. I even found a template here:

So the plastic plate that you got, is it sturdy feeling?

Feels like a normal gbm faceplate
