The PSP modding scene is huge. From aftermarket shells to buttons and memory stick SD adapters, there is virtually nothing you can't replace. Batteries are dime a dozen. Though iirc, official Sony batteries are still superior to the actual aftermarket batteries, so if you can get your hands on one - probably second-hand - you're set.

Same goes for most other handhelds, I imagine. The DS and the 3DS family are hugely popular in the modding scene too, especially given that the 3DS line has seen a resurgence in interest because of the eShop's closure, so replacing their parts is also trivial.

Ebay and AliExpress should have most of what you're looking for
