From the project

A replacement circuit board for improving the Super Game Boy, or for creating a standalone Game Boy game for the SNES.

Use this board to center the link port properly in SNES shells that aren't the SGB2.

NOTE: This only works on the North American Super Game Boy shell. It will not fit in a Super Famicom or PAL region SGB.

The zipped folder contains all the gerber files for this board. The board characteristics don't really matter a whole lot, but I would err on the thicker side for support purposes.
