you always need to desolder and clean the power switch when modding a gba because any dirt in there will cause issues with turning off even with full batteries, and the usb c battery doesn’t last long compared to rechargeable AAs

My Xbox one wouldn't turn on either. Turns out I just needed a new power supply. I bought a 3rd party one from GameStop for ~$30 and it works great although the internal fan is a bit noisy.
why are people freaking out about the new shell?? they needed to do that, they trimmed the shell for the gba sp screen to fit on the normal gba, thus damaging *that* shell beyond repair.
Wish I saw your content a couple years ago since I broke my 3ds my stepping on the screen, man I miss playing this thing. Think my mom threw it away but if I find it, it’s definitely coming your way.
Can you fix DS Lites? I have a 15 year old one that was gifted to me by my brother who was deployed in the Navy. He now lives in Thailand so I like having a bit of him near.

Awesome!! 👏🏼 And brother I have a Nintendo SP which is a childhood memory and everything is working fine just that the screen cracked. Can you please please help me fix this & what would you need or how much do you charge for screen & save my childhood memory🙏🏼😭
@@JoshWright10 shame :/ yeah here i believe the only way we could get it at least for awhile was it was a Walmart thing? Maybe not still i was always a fan of this shell or any transparent shell 😂
That's an Nintendo DSi screen, It gives a more authentic look to the original. Clearly, they didn't look at the guide. Because with original cases, there's a lot of plastic you need to trim.
I actually solder them to the start button anyway because I like to play Donkey Kong Land and you have to hold down the select button to use the animal's special abilities
Did you not notice how the dude who sent it in had completely mangled the screen cutout? He cut the fuck out of it trying to get a sp screen to fit in a regular advance, it was in no way usable anymore dingus
I have like 2 gameboy sps 1 gameboy color and 1 gameboy advanced motherboard that I can’t get to work completely. How much do you charge to repair or just check if a motherboard can be repaired ?
How come you don’t put the copper part on the batteries when you do them? Just curious. I’ve done these before myself I’m no expert I’m just curious if there’s a reason why
Ive modded a few GBA and its a waste of time really to try and trim an original shell to fit an lcd even if you do a good job the trimmed edge still never looks as good as the molded edge
Can you do Nintendo DS light repairs? It needs a new top screen and the hinge is broken. I don’t care about cosmetics, but I would just like to know if you could fix it if not, thank you. And where would I have to send it?
How much would it cost to send in an old Game Boy Advanced SP that possiblg has water damage? At the time it got wet from the rain or something i canf remember and we tried drying it out but it never feally worked after tham, it xould just be the battery was completely dead idk, but yea probably needs all new parts, i proba lg wouldnt use it but id like to vet it working again to go with my original Gameboy Colour fhat does still work and my many DS's.
@JayBoyModz that’s amazing! Can you tell me how you got started into fixing electronics and how one would start?I don’t really have any old electronics that need fixing
I’m not JayBoy but I do this sorta thing myself, I expect you mean doing the screen replacements and whatnot, you can get the parts for it through websites like ZedLabz, Handheld legend, retro modding and various others, you can get the system from online marketplaces such as eBay, facebook marketplace etc, I also heard you can get them for cheap from Japan.

Did you not see the original? Her husband practically fucked it up lmao.
@@myers6044 true
Actually, task succeeded. Fixing that old thing, only with those broken pieces, would be way more inefficient and less cool to the video
it’s the same gba, just a different shell
And then he keeps all the spare parts from the original Gameboy. It's annoying asf

Hurt my soul seeing a broken original gba shell like that (the blue one)

Looks like they had a GBA SP screen and tried to fit it to a regular GBA

How does one go about sending you an item for repair? This is amazing
I am also curious about this!
I’m guessing they email him and ask to repair it then if he says yes they send it in he repairs it and sends it back to the customer
I also have a Gameboy I need repaired!
I have a Gameboy that I'd love to get an ips screen put into, mine works just fine but I can't see the games well enough to play them
Imagine she’s like WTF that shell was sentimental value! 😂
why are people freaking out about the new shell?? they needed to do that, they trimmed the shell for the gba sp screen to fit on the normal gba, thus damaging *that* shell beyond repair.
Ya super easy if you know how to not mess up well you solder 😂 great job man sure the customer will be happy
Since TP2 solder point is missing the select button isnt going to work. Hope you fixed it
he did not fix it he used the start button so imo the start button wont work as the start button anymore

Dude went above and beyond on the the gameboy. Maybe i should send in my sp with broken l and r buttons
First, try disassembling it and just cleaning it out. The shoulder buttons can get dust or lint in them, preventing the contact from being made.
