Hello , what was the green stuff you applied over the broke board after you repaired, also what type of wire did you use on that same board to bypass ?brThanks

I had five gameboy games I got on eBay untested and a couple of them had the same problem with the legs of the chip and It works great I like learning stuff from Steve!! Keep up the great work!!! 👍👍👍

I hope this isn’t Nintendo’s version of planned obsolescence 😢

Just found your channel you did good work on them games you should have way more subs
Comment from : @scorcher617

The price of broken gb gbc and gba games is so high now Like a broken pokemon game will sell for $5 less than a working one These repair videos have made prices go up this past couple years Hard pass for me I repair stuff but not gonna buy a $90 broken game when I can get a working one for $5 more

Do you like to play rough with your cat? 😂 Thats how my hands look aswell 😅
Comment from : @Dsbarrynl

Did your hand get into a fight with a kitten?
Comment from : @Rameus

First time repairing a gameboy game It was a struggle with no prior experience I learned a lot through trial and error However, the feeling of finally getting a game to work is priceless brbrOracle of Ages had b****/b for the game file come to find out 2 pins were completely off one of the chips I had to reconnect a line back to the board and maaaan Took me nearly a day and a half to finally say I fix it
Comment from : @Kyoyokodaichi

God i love this
Comment from : @jackmehoffe9372

Just a semi educated guessbut the age of these games with the dodgy solder legs, all date from around the switch from leaded to unleaded solder Unleaded solder was a pig to work with/ setup ovens for, for a good 10 years or so
Comment from : @Rich77UK

hello, you played with the cat a lot and it scratched your left hand
Comment from : @tudorviorel5438

thats like planned hardware obsolecense
Comment from : @MrF3nox

Would like your help on how to reattach a flat flex cable which has partially detached from a long strip of PCB which connects to the TCON board to the main screen controlling the left side of the screen This was noticed after replacing the backlight strips What equipment do I need, solder and so on?
Comment from : @jean-lucpicard5510

cool!
Comment from : @ff-mu6cc

You are so talented and skilled! I'm so happy you were able to fix these games and save them from being wasted!
Comment from : @lancelyde

You are pretty good but also probably lucky :))
Comment from : @albeanudaniel

11:12brbrThat's a good GBA right there The button and case colors work so nicely together
Comment from : @iHusk

That Gameboy advance you have is so rad !
Comment from : @ecentes107

When you were checking continuity on super Mario land and you couldn’t find the the connection point after the break in the trace, could you not have just checked the trace itself immediately after the break ? Sorry if this is a stupid question, still learning
Comment from : @andrewtaylor9704

what the crayon u used to clean the connexions?
Comment from : @mickhead77

@7:16 why did you tin that bit on the left? From what I can see that isn't a trace? Couldn't it just be covered with solder mask? Sorry for the question just trying to learn myself
Comment from : @ste7523

Could've saved you so much time you didn't blow on the cartridge
Comment from : @michaelbarkham6064

12:25 I see what you did there
Comment from : @WoWdropzone

Nice shirt 😅
Comment from : @ilhamdjs

Comment from : @dino6080

5:21brbrIn my case, I got a cartridge with one of the legs broken and missing Is it possible to fix it?
Comment from : @diogoubermensch9255

Last week I bought 3 gameboy color games and they had the exact same issue! Well, one of them was working but sometimes it didn't, so I reflowed it anyway Because of your video I could spot the problem immediately Thank you!
Comment from : @Ereina

Which fluid/flux do you use?
Comment from : @fernandosoares1833

Wow that’s insane I have a links oracle of seasons I’m gonna go and check right now
Comment from : @x1ic1x

Comment from : @ice2002

Good job man and thanks for the video
Comment from : @harronlor4345

You got some cat chewing up your hand man?
Comment from : @MrAdamnationZ

What happened to your hands, friend? Someone throw you in a briar patch?
Comment from : @batman8589

Seeing this Gameboy stuff reminds me of Solderking here on YouTube If you like Gameboy fixes, you should seriously check his videos out!
Comment from : @repairwins

Can that loose leg be from bending the cart?
Comment from : @john-paulwallcraft9362

Its because they are assembled by the same company So the problem could be more common
Comment from : @86jpw

This was my first video of yours that I watched, and is still one of my favorites Would you sider buying more cartilages like these and fixing more? Maybe different game types? Like NES or SEGA? Just a thought
Comment from : @andrewsmith1520

Very nice 👍
Comment from : @udaaz

Middle aged man playing kid's games?
Comment from : @aalexjohna

You're fixing these cartridges, meanwhile the Gameboy CEO is thinking this man has ruined our sales strategy Lol :)
Comment from : @nbaua3454

Ive always "assumed" that when a game cartridge didnt work something "zapped" one of the chips inside! Now I know!!!!
Comment from : @kingforaday8725

Dang that's a easy fix Might look at getting some faulty games myself haha
Comment from : @welshtony1

8:55 holy crap those sounds My dad bought a original gameboy back in 1991 to keep all of us 6 kids and step kids entertained on the flight from Oregon USA to London I was the only one who cared so I played that game for like 10 hours Such memories flooding back in
Comment from : @elburro

I can't get enough of your videos - After watching maybe 50 of your videos and having zero knowledge in electronics I feel like I'm learning a new skill haha having never worked on a circuit board in my life! Ah the joys of the internet
Comment from : @markrung8051

Looks like nintendo had some crappy factory soldering going on
Comment from : @joshkelly4682

I have a broken gameboy cart, whats the bet, that when I look at it, thats NOT the problem?
Comment from : @mikester1290

Pretty interesting!
Comment from : @gabrielv4358

Cats or gardening? 😆
Comment from : @fergman3690

Makes me think it’s just the way the board flexes when swapping games All those components must move a tiny bit no matter what and that spot is just the worst place
Comment from : @timehunter9467

I like your Gameboy Advance The multi color buttons are reminiscent of the Super Famicom!!
Comment from : @mikesanchez7358

Great strike rate Steve! Makes me want to jump on Amazon and grab the setup you have and start repairing stuff too! 👍👍
Comment from : @samwilliamson4715

The link above for “your thermal cam” leads to a wood moisture meter, not a thermal cam
Comment from : @BlackSoap361

What solder mask do you use for your repairs?
Comment from : @BlackSoap361

what size needle nose pliers do you use mate , great videos btw
Comment from : @drunkensamurai3172

Maybe this pin issue was not caused by factory maybe rather by desparate mum's 😂
Comment from : @etzbert

Love this channel, thanks for all the effort in making these videos!
Comment from : @tuffteddy1446

Can I send you my game to be restored ?
Comment from : @Canarygoblin

Whut the hell went wrong with translation there🤣 tootuff🤣🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ its literally titeuf a french cartoon Meaning small egg 🤣 how did they manage to make tootuff from it🤣
Comment from : @kevincorroyer101

Any advice for removing that chip entirely and redoing all of the solder? I have an old Pokémon Sapphire that looks really bad, I think somebody tried to change a battery and knocked the chip and tried to undo their mistake
Comment from : @iamjonbeamer9632

It's called planned obsolescence:)
Comment from : @KaraJohnnyAris

You're a legend

Very satisfying to watch!

"One man - no talent" I wish I could do the same man Enjoyed your video!
Comment from : @weigthcut

Do you have a cat?
Comment from : @sarahdriedger4386

Just curious How much plastic do you think you've kept out of landfills by fixing this stuff?
Comment from : @AngelusNielson

What is that green ink you are putting over the fixed jumper cables?
Comment from : @irgendwer3610

Taping that cracked PCB together is the most "I don't know what I'm doing" thing I've ever seenbrbrBut also, how in the heck does a PCB get cracked with no damage to the exterior case?!
Comment from : @Sundablakr

Great video - love this topic about fixing stuff What did you use to protect your wires on the cracked cartridge? Some kind of UV light hardening plastic?
Comment from : @firewulfi

:)
Comment from : @_Rite

Were GBAs really that small? Holy shit
Comment from : @CrowYaeger

Idiotic question mate: what's the green glue you applied to the pcb?
Comment from : @BenRush

Than wonder how it is broken in the first place
Comment from : @TalaIsDarker

i would love to see you try and fix some guitar pedals that would be awesome!
Comment from : @XxdartvaderxX

Seems like an intentional defect if anything 🤔
Comment from : @TankManHeavy

Is your cat feral? Them scratches seem like they hurt
Comment from : @robm1374

In Germany we call it "Sollbruchstelle"
Comment from : @utalimba1502

Awesome repair! A newbie question from me: What's that liquid you were pouring over the contacts prior to solder them fixed?
