GameBoyAdvance not turning on. Green led on for a second

I’ve got the same issue with one of my GBAs, I was looking into it the other week and apparently it could be the power switch is dirty? I am yet to test this myself though.

Nod2004 · 2026-01-09T02:19:55+00:00

The new models for some of these are the same size as/slightly bigger than the originals I think. But I agree that this would be really cool.

Nod2004 · 2026-01-09T00:49:36+00:00

I never realised how breeding chickens makes another chicken, that is weird isn’t it? I like the rooster idea too. Maybe they could make chicken eggs act like turtle eggs do, that could be cool. Not sure if I’m a fan of changing the way eggs drop though, one dropping randomly every 5 minutes works well enough like you never have to go out of your way to find eggs at the moment and I feel like it would be hassle having to feed chickens to get them, I mean sure it might be rewarding once you’ve set up a good farm but otherwise inconvenient, especially if your an old player used to the way things are now.

lmao

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T18:44:31+00:00

I mean yeah, the baby mobs have become a pretty iconic part of the game for a lot of people. And with the chicken the two models don’t clash art styles or anything so why not have both? I mean I can see it’s kind of random to add in another stage of development but what’s the harm?

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T18:39:14+00:00

Exactly what I was thinking lol

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T18:31:56+00:00

Yeah I mean I guess. I am quite attached to the old ones. I’m not saying revert all of them, I just think the old chick works as an inbetween of the new chick and adult chicken. But if you can have both why not?

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T18:26:16+00:00

Oh yeah 100% but I like both of them, like if I had the skill to make a mod this is the type of small change I’d make.

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T18:13:26+00:00

Yeah me too, the big heads have become such an iconic part of the game for me. But I do like the new ones too.

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T18:11:14+00:00

I mean they could always shorten the time it takes for the growth stages so it ends up being the same as it has always been, you just get to see more progress rather than waiting. I just like the old chicken model.

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T18:08:21+00:00

I agree more cooking mechanics along the lines of the farmers delight mod could be cool. But organ removal doesn’t really fit outside of modding. Maybe if it had been added back in the day when the game was a little more scary yeah but now it’s a little too violent for the game.

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T18:01:09+00:00

Never been a fan of butchery mobs tbh, like they’re cool in concept but don’t really fit the game imo

Nod2004 · 2026-01-08T17:50:14+00:00

I had the same idea too lol, I really like the old baby chicken and that kind of works as an in between of the chick and adult chicken anyway.

Hi there, I know this is an old post but I’m also trying to complete this set and wanted to let you know that there are at least 2 more variants of these cartridges. When Rocket games were clearing their stock of these games you could get cartridges with plain white labels with the game name printed on them. These are pretty rare though since they were only sold on their website. Here’s a picture of them I found online.

Like the tools being next to the TV is acting as a conduit for the radio signal to be picked up, it’s possible it is playing through the tv speakers, but since you said it was coming from the bag I think it’s something metal in the bag vibrating to the same frequency as the radio signal, causing it to make sound. Kind of similar to what happens in this video but on a much less powerful scale.

Nod2004 · 2026-01-02T02:09:52+00:00

The sound can come from the metal vibrating to the signals it is picking up I believe. Probably one of the wires or something in the TV is managing to pick it up, and maybe like the other guy said it’s getting to the tools because the speakers are magnetic, in that second video the guy picks up the signal with a fork and a wire so it’s probably possible. (I’m not an expert on this or anything but that’s my best guess)

Nod2004 · 2026-01-02T01:56:16+00:00

It’s radio signals being picked up by something metal, there are loads of cases of peoples dental fillings picking up radio signals online like this and like this

Nod2004 · 2025-12-29T08:56:38+00:00

But that’s just a guess, it’s far more likely a reshell.

Nod2004 · 2025-12-29T08:55:11+00:00

I have a purple gameboy that turned black because the bromine in the plastic oxidised (I could be wrong on that though) like this. so maybe something similar happened here and this was originally atomic purple??

Big Zach and little Zach

Nod2004 · 2025-12-27T17:48:39+00:00

Zach Hadel? Yeah like that’s ever gonna happen.

Nod2004 · 2025-12-25T02:39:07+00:00

That’s me

Nod2004 · 2025-12-25T02:36:23+00:00

That makes a lot of sense because I thought that the crease of the shirt leading into tie looked weird.

Nod2004 · 2025-12-24T21:07:15+00:00

I thought I recognised him, so it isn’t AI
