    Google is a thing you know...

    But yes, there is a front light mod that requires taking a light out of a GBA SP (AGS-001) and soldering it inside the GBC. If you're asking about making the screen brighter without modding it, then no. The GBC screen is not backlit or anything.

    The ags-101 screen is much better for modding a GBC.

    Bad_ad in europe definately from what i've heard.
    sadly never transacted with him due to my teenage petulance at the time, but i assure you he's better than consolepassion...

    I just did a google search and the first thing was using the front light from the ags-001 on the GBC so I didn't know the ags-101 screen worked. Last I heard it didn't, unless that only applies to the original GB.

    Your right MSX,I was thinking of another mod.

    The gbc cannot be back lit,only front lit.
