Holy cow, that brings back memories..
I worked on the Crawfish incarnation of that game until they went under and Digital Eclipse took over development.

Nice looking GBA! I always had a soft spot for those machines.
Remember really wanting an Afterburner kit for mine back in the days but was too afraid of installing one :)

It is very nice with the new display, I have to say the whole kit was a pleasure to install.
