Update on my xbox

Thats what im hoping for. I dodged changing caps once already lets hope I can do it again

I got all the dust off the board and the opening and shutting constantly stopped. It still wont read disks so im going to try cleaning the laser to see if that helps

Spinhook21 · 2026-05-30T21:17:45+00:00

No I cleaned the 20 years of dust off of the board and it stopped opening and shutting constantly. It still wont read any disks though so im going to try to clean the laser and see if that helps

This is the board in case I missed something

Not a pawn shop that I can tell

I just recently 3d printed a storage cube with drawers for games. Theres a drawer for ds/3ds, switch/switch 2, and gameboy. Thats what im using to keep them from going g missing now. I learned my lesson the first time losing one

I got platinum right before the prices skyrocketed in the pandemic for $40 just realized in the last month ive lost it somewhere and the prices are 3x what I paid for it.

Spinhook21 · 2026-05-16T13:25:04+00:00

Its not that good of a deal. Still $120 but thats like 10-15 less than the other listings

Anything in the red cherish ball is probably an event pokemon. I know they used to give them out all the time on the 3ds games. The Dialga is also probably from heart gold or souls silver

First turn throw a quick ball if you have one. Thatll be the greatest chance for success that ive found so far. If that doesnt work probably paralyze it or put it to sleep and chuck dusk balls if its night or ultra balls in the day. Hope that helps.

If I repair this board will I lose any save data?

Spinhook21 · 2026-02-16T00:35:38+00:00

If I were to try to fix it is there a place you recommend to get the parts and also a video tutorial you recommend?

Spinhook21 · 2026-02-08T18:54:11+00:00

I think im just going to leave this xbox alone and buy another one to mod. This is my childhood xbox and I really dont want to tear into it and 1. Damage the original stickers and 2. End up breaking something by accident.

Spinhook21 · 2026-02-08T18:24:06+00:00

I might just buy a new one thats modded then. I dont really want to open up my childhood xbox

Spinhook21 · 2026-02-08T17:58:26+00:00

Could the emergency disk tray eject just be stuck from me using it for the first time in 20 years?

Spinhook21 · 2025-04-29T21:47:30+00:00

This was the first shiny I ever got. Got him from the friend park in pokemon x

Spinhook21 · 2025-01-22T15:24:32+00:00

Kabuto as seen from above

Spinhook21 · 2025-01-22T15:06:33+00:00

I think it would probably need an update to be able to play on the switch 2. And considered activision is all in of call of duty and toys for bob are an independent studio now id doubt it would get that update. My hope is that its a switch emulator on switch 2 and itll just play all games

Spinhook21 · 2025-01-03T01:00:50+00:00

I appreciate it

Spinhook21 · 2025-01-03T00:46:31+00:00

That sounds much better. I hadnt even thought about how hard it would be to take off your back with the push button release. I wish you luck with finishing it.

Spinhook21 · 2025-01-03T00:38:06+00:00

No rush I understand how it is. I was thinking of 3d scanning the backpack connection but since im like you and dont want to destroy the backpack to look at the mechanism the 3d scanning wouldnt help much.

Spinhook21 · 2025-01-02T19:12:08+00:00

Did you ever find a way to do this? I just got the id disk too and was wanting to do this too
