I found my old gameboy color, and I started playing Pokémon gold on it.

The thing is, the screen sucks. I see there are backlight mods and wanted to know if anyone has experience with this.

I’m not sure if all the displays made for the gameboy color have the same resolution.

I can only buy kits directly from China where I live, but the resolutions are not listed. I’m worried it’s going to distort the original image.

Most kits ship with screens that are a multiple of the original Game Boy resolution. So the displays aren't distorted.

Look up Funnyplaying. They make some of the best kits on the market, I've used several of them myself.

+1 for FP - fantastic hardware and if you order direct from them it meets the requirement of ordering & shipping from China.
