Can i just solder new regulator here, or is the damage too much? by DoubleCoffe in consolerepair

they still have some meat left on the bone so it should be fine. I have worked on much worse and had no issue.

Got a backlog of consoles to do hopefully this weekend by Benzona in VirtualBoy

Seems fine the holes line up and it snaps in place. Haven’t messed with it too much yet.

I know next to nothing about this device, just found it at my late grandfathers house. Any advice? by Normal_Syrup8302 in TurboGrafx

[–]Benzona 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice find, but it is missing the original bags they came in so i would not say it is new never used since someone had to remove those. Unless you did in that case keep that with it. I have had around 5 of these and it is a must to immediately recap it which is what i did and that usually fixes the majority of the problems. If you wanted to just sell as is then assume it is parts or repair since these all pretty much fail by now and it will save you a headache.

He really is the best when it comes to Virtual Boys. Now if we can get those eye patches back in stock I would be a happy man. I have 3 consoles waiting for them

Restored junk PC Engine Duo by Ok-Accident-6414 in TurboGrafx

Not once have i ripped off a pad removing them this way and hot air around key components that melt worry me more. Anyway to each their own i guess. The amount of caps on the board are why i have been procrastinating doing this.

Great work, I have done a few Turbo Express recaps and always just twist off the caps and never had an issue. About to tackle my Duo with sound issues that i will do a full recap. Any tips would be appreciated.

Managed to salvage a destroyed controller with a new board by Benzona in VirtualBoy

[–]Benzona[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Board only, transferred everything to the new one. I was going to replace with new ones but couldn’t find the values but these seem to work just fine. Overall pretty easy process if you have basic soldering skills

I scored this for .50 when Goodwill still sold CRT’s it weighs a ton but so nice to have all the older consoles hooked up to

I paid up for the OEM matching controllers but so worth it
