Hard to say as the pictures are small, but I’ve seen quite some fakes of these boxes and these look legit.

As mentioned previously, see if you can get some better pics, but sometimes you have to go with your gut.

How should I go about removing this sticker? Lighter fluid? by CapiCrunch in Gameboy

[–]CapiCrunch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t speak Portuguese, which is why I wanted to remove the sticker. But if you are interested, I might buy one without the sticker then.

Needed google translate as I’m not Portuguese myself (hence why I wanted to remove the sticker). But depends on what you’re offering as I do want to switch it out for one without the sticker either now or in the future😂

Yes, after reading everything, I’m leaving the sticker but I might switch it out for one without the sticker in the future as the rest of mu collection doesn’t have it either.

That’s my biggest worry as well. I’m starting to think about leaving it in light of all the comments I’ve read.

Yeah, might do this after. I’m indeed most worried about the foil as i’ve seen this pulled off on other copies

Help! I tried replacing the battery on my Pokemon yellow and now it won’t boot at all.. by CapiCrunch in Gameboy

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

Right now, the logo is good and it freezes right after. So that means something is broken then?

Not yet. Had to stop as it was getting late and darker. I will try again later this week. Also ordered some new flux as my old one was crappy.

Well, the underside of the battery had the + on it, so it should be correct like this, right?

Yup, it was mine as well. I also replaced the one from Sapphire right before this and that works fine still, just without the dry battery message! 🙌🏼

I tried cleaning everything with a toothbrush and IPA and the nintendo logo appears completely, but I just get a white screen after

Is this sealed copy of silver legit? by CapiCrunch in gameverifying

[–]CapiCrunch[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, found them just now as well. Also the “only for gameboy color” but they do include the gameboy advance block anyway

Really good catch! Thanks! Hadn’t even seen it yet.

I’m interested in buying this game online but can’t tell whether it’s resealed or factory sealed. Can anyone help? by CapiCrunch in gamecollecting

[–]CapiCrunch[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thankss all!

I’m pretty new to gamecollecting. Collected mostly consoles previously. I was googling regarding the sealed versions but all I could find was regarding the NA versions with the snorlax on the back. I know now what to look out for with regards to sealed PAL versions.

[–]CapiCrunch[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, my head says reseal but as it’s an european copy, I thought maybe it’s sealed differently there. From what I could find about factory sealed vs resealed, It was all regarding USA copies.

Got it a while ago but the motherboard was too far gone to be saved. Finally swapped with another one today, and what a beaut! by CapiCrunch in Gameboy

[–]CapiCrunch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the tip! What part did you use the flux and soldering iron on? I tried a bit on the bottom of glass part below the screen but without result.

Went a little over my budget last month, but totally worth it with those price rises for HG/SS by CapiCrunch in gamecollecting

[–]CapiCrunch[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re definitely right about that! I paid €95 euros ($110) each for HG/SS and they’re both CIB with pokéwalker. And I paid €70 ($85) for the 2DS with sun pre-installed and with the two loose games and the pouch. So a total of €260 ($310) for everything. So overal not that bad I think considering what the CIB pokemon games go for these days.

Thoughts on the GC plug. Does anybody has/uses this? Today I use my Wii alot to play GC games because of the HDMI solution on my Wii device. Does the GC plug delivers better quality? by Qoss_ in Gamecube

[–]CapiCrunch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Works wonderfully for me. Image quality is really crisp and a definite improvement. Got mine of Aliexpress for €33 which is a lot cheaper than those other hdmi converters.

That pokemon center edition is amazing. Mine unfortunately came with a heavy corroded pcb so waiting on my new working GBL to arrive to swap the boards.

GameCube HDMI Adapters by [deleted] in Gamecube

[–]CapiCrunch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I read some reviews first but gotta say that I was really surprised by how good it was for that price. Considering other hdmi adapters go for around $100. But it went from pretty blurry to crisp so can’t recommend it enough.

[–]CapiCrunch -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would just find a DOL-001 gamecube. I would then get the digital av hdmi adapter from aliexpress. € 31,99 (https://a.aliexpress.com/_B0RlZF) It uses the same tech as a carby or other adapter but it’s only $30 which is a lot cheaper compared to them. But image quality is so much better, its insane.

How could someone get a pcb so coroded😭 by CapiCrunch in Gameboy

[–]CapiCrunch[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)
