IPS screen kit for Neo Geo Pocket: finally readable without a bedside lamp
The 1998 black and white Neo Geo Pocket has a screen with no backlight: you need strong light to make anything out. This kit replaces that panel with a backlit IPS screen with an OSD menu and a retro pixel effect, so you can play in any lighting conditions.
What it does
- IPS backlight: the picture stays readable in dim light and from wide viewing angles.
- OSD menu: brightness, colour palettes and display are adjusted on screen.
- Retro pixel effect: an optional grid recalls the look of the original screen.
What it doesn't do
- It does not turn the console into a Neo Geo Pocket Color. Games are still displayed in greyscale; the menu palettes tint the picture, they do not recreate the colour of Color games.
- It is not suitable for the Neo Geo Pocket Color or the Color Slim: they require different kits.
- It replaces neither the shell, nor the screen lens, nor the batteries: only the screen changes.
Compatibility
Black and white Neo Geo Pocket (original model, 1998). Not compatible with the Neo Geo Pocket Color and the Neo Geo Pocket Color Slim, whose screen and motherboard differ.
Skill level required
Intermediate level. You need to open the console, disconnect and remove the original screen, then install the new screen and its electronics. On this type of kit, a few thin wires need to be soldered for power or access to the OSD menu: have a fine-tip soldering iron, thin wire and a screwdriver suited to the console's screws ready.

The job: lighting up a Neo Geo Pocket again
On an original Neo Geo Pocket, you tilt the console towards the window to guess at the picture. Once this kit is installed, the screen lights up on its own: you can play in the evening, on the train, under the covers. The work is done with the console open, removing the old panel and connecting the new screen.
The part: an IPS screen adjustable on screen
The IPS panel keeps its contrast when tilted, where the original screen fades. The OSD menu adjusts brightness and tints the picture with several palettes, and an optional pixel effect recalls the grid of the original screen. The console remains a black and white Neo Geo Pocket: games do not switch to colour.
Before ordering: check the model
Turn your console over: this kit is designed for the black and white Neo Geo Pocket, not the Color or the Color Slim. Have a fine-tip soldering iron ready for the few wires to connect and a plastic spudger for the old screen. Unsure about your model? Our customer service replies within 1 business day.

Frequently Asked Questions
🔧 Do I need to solder to install this screen?
Plan for it: on this type of kit, a few thin wires need to be soldered for power or access to the OSD menu. A fine-tip soldering iron is enough.
🎮 Is it compatible with the Neo Geo Pocket Color?
No. This kit is designed for the original black and white Neo Geo Pocket. The Color and the Color Slim have a different screen and motherboard and require their own kit.
🌈 Are games displayed in colour?
No. The console remains a black and white Neo Geo Pocket: the OSD menu palettes tint the picture, they do not render the colour of Color games.
📦 What is in the box?
The IPS screen kit: the backlit screen and its driver electronics. No console, no tools.
🧰 What tools do I need?
A screwdriver suited to the console's screws, a fine-tip soldering iron, thin wire and a plastic spudger to lift the old screen without scratching the shell.
🎛️ How is the picture adjusted?
Through the screen's OSD menu: brightness, colour palettes and retro pixel effect are selected directly from the console once the kit is installed.
🚚 What are the delivery times?
Delivery in 10 to 18 days, dispatched within 3 to 5 days.
🛡️ What guarantee applies?
2-year legal guarantee of conformity. 14-day returns. Our customer service replies within 1 business day.
Why buy here rather than on a marketplace
It is a fair question. Here is the answer, straight.
Every listing is checked before publication: real compatibility, material, dimensions, box contents. Many models never make it into the catalogue.
A question about compatibility, a fit problem, a return: you write, a human replies within 1 business day. In French.
The 2-year legal warranty of conformity is handled by us — not by a form on the other side of the world. And 14 days to change your mind, with no need to justify yourself.
We do not claim to be the cheapest. We claim that you will know exactly what you are buying before you pay.
