Bringing back the games and consoles you loved as a kid, into the 21st Century
The Game Boy Pocket brings all the power and fun of the original brick GameBoy, but in a much smaller size. Taking 2 AAA batteries, having a higher contrast and faster response screen than the original, this is the perfect console for those who loved the original.
Hand-restored to it's original condition, with a new shell, buttons, screen, boxed making the perfect gift for a die-hard gamer.
We take an original Game Boy Pocket and start by taking it apart fully. We clean the PCB, replace any broken or worn components such as the Link connection, volume wheel, contrast wheel and power switch, and do a full hardware test to confirm good working order is restored.
Next, we replace the old, used and worn shell with a brand new one, along with the rubber contacts and buttons to restore that brand new button press feel.
We upgrade the quiet audio with our CleanAmp system that boosts the sound level and replaces the old speaker with a hyper-loud 1W speaker, pushing the sound to the limit.
Then comes the major upgrade. We install our brand new backlit LCD that brings the GameBoy Pocket into the modern age (the LCD is smaller than the original screen). This will leave you in GameBoy heaven.
No more AA batteries, all Prestige Pocket consoles now come with a CleanJuiceAIr battery pack including native low battery indicator dimming the GBP red light when batteries are low. The console is powered by a CleanJuiceAir 2.2Wh lipo battery and will require a wireless charger to charge.
Finally, we replace the plastic screen protector with a modern tougher glass screen protector so your old new console stays newer for longer.
The finishing touch is a boxed and sealed product perfect as a gift for any retro gamer... or maybe even treat yourself?

Retro Enthusiast
RetroSix is a small team of people who have been in the gaming industry and retail business since 2013, and sold consoles, controllers and even designed our own controllers and consoles.
Putting that expertise to good use, we decided to start RetroSix; a small team of people passionate about retro gaming, and restoring original consoles to like-new, adding our own twist and style to them and in general bringing a modern twist to retro.
Experience the nostalgia without the limitations of old and outdated hardware.
So many things these days are mass produced, not designed to last, and make as cheap as possible for as much money as possible. We started RetroSix not as a mass market business, instead with the aim of perfection. Recreating moulds of original shells, casting them from quality ABS, redesigning hardware such as power supplies, USB-C, audio and more, to upgrade your consoles to the highest quality available. No cheap junk sold for profit.
All restoration work, modifications, improvements and so on are done in the UK, in-house by hand and all attention to detail and care is taken for every order. You can be assured that your order has been inspected not only by a real person but someone who knows about and is excited by gaming and retro, and no sub-par product leaves our doors.
