Well you could buy a new one OR buy a rechargeable battery pack which goes where the batteries normally go.

Maybe look for a second hand gameboy (original) for a cheap price (you should be able to get opne for £10 i guess). If the cover is the same for both, then buy the original GB and use its battery cover.

Yer best bets gonna be sticking a piece of card board where the cover was, and sellotape it on!

That's gonna be the best you can do I guess!

I don't think i've ever seen anywhere that sells extra battery covers.

What you could do was buy your son, one of those chargable battery things. That way, he'd have a rechargeable battery, and the cover would be taken care of!
