I also looked at this yesterday. Physically, I think it wouldn't fit. I did some measurements, and I doubt that it will work in the GBA-Style shell. It may be possible that someone could make a similar board that would fit better, but I doubt it. I think it would stick out. If you got lucky, it might just stick out the cartridge opening and you could 3D print some cover for it. I'm not hopeful, though.
So, I think it would be too thick AND I think it would stick up toward the cartridge opening too much, if that makes sense.
Otherwise, if you just wanted to know if it would work (maybe without a shell), I don't know. I would bet that it would require some changes to the LCD and button drivers, but maybe it would just work.

Excellent news - can’t wait to hear more. I went ahead and subscribed.
And thanks for the soldering tip!

We've had to pivot on this a bit for multiple reasons. Too much going on and we probably had a bit too lofty goals. I think we may be taking a bit more of an incremental (smaller stepped) approach.
