I Fixed 100 BROKEN GBA Games!

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

*Please help* I tried to change my battery in ruby but instead the solder stuck to the pins on the bottle, I pulled it up and the pins came with it, is it done or can I fix it ??

Nice new intro, i love the gba startup screen!

You should consider some vinegar baths for rusty stuff. Maybe even a Soniclean machine. Might improve your average. Although you'd be going from an A+ to an A++. May be good enough. Better than most of us anyway. 😊 Great videos as always.

Good stuff. Still haven't solved my Pikachu screen of death, but some games may be fun to try. Almost all 100, i would call that great success and a great video 🤘

[IowaRetroGamerDad]

Damn! Thats alot! Yeah, blobs usally mean fake. I found that out after watching a few random videos! Crazy what games people will fake nowadays haha

[Larv]

You know it’s going to be a great video when “your mom’s toothbrush” makes an appearance! I love mappy too! I would play it all the time on my Nintendo GameCube! It was on the game NAMCO arcade! Great video and fantastic editing as always Jake!

The famicom games they made them red and white couse the famicom had those colors but outside of japan the gba nes games were actually the same grey color the nes was.

[yami]

Would you know why a gba game would fail to save it doesnt have a battery it loads just doesnt save

[kyky]

Now need to do this with 100 gbc games

[jonatanpalma]

Where are the streams for the handhelds available at?

[PaperBanjo]

What happens when the SRAM goes bad? My Mario Kart Super Circuit cannot save. When I booted it up it had the standard daytime startup instead of the sunset screen I had unlocked from beating all the cups. Edit...about an hour later my save somehow restored itself...how was that even possible!? I've had this cartridge since Christmas 2012 I am not the original owner but it is in decent shape.

[Anthestudios]

Were you not concerned with buying 100 fakes? Seems like every GBA cart I look at nowadays is a repro...

[SoundToxin]

I'd like to see this for DS games. What do you do instead of soldering to test pads in GBAs now? I encountered the pinched wire issue once but fixed it and have been okay since. I know for GBC makho has a preferred spot on the top part of the board, can't remember seeing something like that for GBA.

Can you fix My Pokémon fire red? I was by lance the elite 4. I saved before the battle. When i reset the game it saying the save file is deleted. Can you pleace fix My game?

[harlequinhunter]
