It was a lot of work, but it honestly was a ton of fun and a cheap way to add games to my collection!

A trick I've used for cleaning the dirty pins is rubbing crumpled aluminum foil against it. Aluminum is softer than copper so it only removes the dirt and not the copper.

The black boxes that replaces the Nintendo logo when the game is loaded is an indication that the cartridge is getting power but not all the pins are connected to the handheld most of the time (based on my experience anyway).

I can not believe you actually put that rust bucket into a working boy. I actually feel bad for it. Is there penicillin for Gameboys? 😢 This was a great video and I would love to see more of a similar style. Top marks 🤘

Very cool as always! Thanks you for showing everything you do. It's because of you that I started modifying, repairing and do stuffs with electronics :D

The super damaged Medabots game is such a cool display piece! It's amazing that the shell is still in such good shape

I actually got a tiny win too today, I got a partially working mario bros deluxe where only the toybox and statistic screen were extremely glitched, reflowing the solder did magic tho😊

Using a fiberglass pen on cartridges that only have minor dirt is a terrible suggestion. Using one when you don't know what you're doing with it can strip the solder mask on the cartridge and even damage the contacts themselves. Using one on extreme cases of rust or corrosion makes sense, but for anything else (99% of cases) you're fine with IPA or metal contact cleaner and/or a pink pencil eraser.

i saw a trick where they pour hot water on battery terminals in cars to remove corrosion, do you think it may work on game boy games or at least see what happens

Where do you find all the broken gameboy games and consoles? I would like to try to get into repairing these myself. Ebay doesnt seem to have a lot of broken stuff. Or maybe im just missing them.

Awesome video! It could possibly be a bit more detailed, but otherwise great! Awesome easter egg in the end.

To be fair, since they are no longer being produced, they all are rare. The real question is which ones are valueable.
