Game Gear CleanScreen Kit V4

RetroSix Game Gear CleanScreen Kit V4 – The Definitive Display Upgrade

The original Game Gear screen is dim, outdated, and notorious for dying. The CleanScreen V4 by RetroSix changes all of that: a razor-sharp 640×480 HD IPS panel, wire-free installation, and more features than ever before – all at a lower price than its predecessor. Whether you have an early VA0 unit or a late VA5 revision, you no longer need to guess which kit to order.

Why V4 is the New Gold Standard

• Universal compatibility: The world's only screen that fully supports all Game Gear revisions – VA0, VA1, VA2, VA4, and VA5. No more guessing.
• Wire-Free Revolution: Pre-made ribbon cables replace the old wiring mess. Ribbons for VA0/1/2 are included.
• 640×480 HD IPS Display: Brilliant colours and high contrast – your Game Gear will look better than ever.
• Infinity Scaling & Pixel Perfection: Integer scaling for crisp pixels, or Infinity Scaling to go anywhere from under 1 inch up to 400% image size.
• Triple Frame Buffer: Full triple-buffering with frame locking eliminates all tearing and stuttering – even at NTSC and Japanese frequencies.
• Retro Authenticity: Scanline emulation and pixel grid effects for that nostalgic CRT glow, or pure modern IPS for vibrant clarity.
• OSD Menu: Access with Start + 2 + Left. Adjust brightness via the original contrast wheel.
• Native VGA/RGB Output: Connect your Game Gear directly to an external monitor. A dedicated HDMI add-on is also coming soon.
• Extra Button: Wire up the TEST button however you like – touch button, physical rear button, or even a magnetic reed switch. Use it to trigger screenshots or custom actions.
• Region Support: Combined with the RetroSix RePCB region switch, run your Game Gear at 50 or 60 Hz effortlessly.
• Firmware Updates: Keep the board up to date anytime via ggcs.retrosix.co.uk – new features are added as the community grows.
• NeoPixel LED Output: Built-in output for LED lighting effects.

Installation Note

Thanks to the ribbon cables, installation is manageable even for beginners. Always do a dry run before final assembly, as the IPS panel is sensitive to pressure and drops. If you encounter noise or glitching, update the firmware at ggcs.retrosix.co.uk.
