    can you imagine how great it would be if every board had to have vital info printed onto it

    I used to have a friend who used a laptop with the polarizer peeled off and she had polarizer glasses so she could use it in coffee houses without anyone seeing what she was working on.

    I like that you're doing more retro repairs.  You've become well rounded in your reportoire!

    I grew up with the Advance so it just dawned on me, but it surprises me how they managed to make a much more powerful console run in half the battery power.

    If you want to get a bit more contrast on OG Game Boy screens, change the polarizer direction, and install a bivert chip.  It'll end up with the image being correct, but with better contrast.

    As everyone saw, the first Gameboy already had its own video. 😁 Just sit back and enjoy the rest of this video. 😊

    The white stuff that you crunched of the black game boys battery connectors is most likely battery acid. To clean that off there is a very simple trick: Use some vinegar and the acid starts bubbling and dissolves immediately. I usually clean the stuff afterwards with some IPA to prevent rusting due to the vinegar, but I am not sure if you would actually need to.<br><br>By the way, I really like your retro console repair videos! Keep it up!

    The Game boys are the absolute tanks of game consoles. Built to easily replace parts. I also saw someone solder push connectors for ribbon cables for easy screen replacement

    I don&apos;t know why, but your game console repair videos feel like they are repairing my childhood. You are our hero!!

    Great video as always. One suggestion for production value when showing retro handhelds, have a dedicated variable speed camera to match the lower refresh rates of the screen in use. It would show a much better representation of what you&apos;re actually seeing.

    Every month I find a GameBoy to fix. Its fun and such a low cost of entry. The best part is that most are fixable with very little effort.
