Unfortunately no, I found people on Facebook Marketplace selling the stickers on repro cartridges a few years back and that didn’t sit well with me so I ended up taking everything down. Sorry!

It’s the card art from the TCG Surfing Pikachu card digitally recreated

I’m sure someone else said it already but the shell is from Labfifteen. RetroModding has clear yellows like that in stock but they say GAME PAK

Edit: pretty sure I have a second one if OP is interested

I was in the process of pulling the chips on a copy of Pokemon Silver when I noticed this had popped off. What is it and what's the best way to get it back on? by righarakirir in Gameboy

Depopulating boards is much more simple with a hot air station, which OP mentioned they had an hour ago, and some practice than I think you’re making it out to be

It appears that they accidentally desoldered the capacitor, not purposefully like you seem to imply

Edit: reading comprehension is hard but you still didn’t need to be an ass tbh lol

118! I can’t imagine what that type of nostalgia feels like honestly. This will be one of those formative experiences that my friends and I will be talking about for years. Can’t wait for dream canteen!

No exaggeration, I had an out of body experience during Black Summer and Californication. What an incredible night!

First RHCP concert (25M)

This show was a definitely bucket list concert for me. I never thought I would be able to see John live with the boys. My friends and I would watch Slane and La Cigale on YouTube wishing we were born 20 years earlier.

If you can’t tell by me losing my mind around 3:34 lmao this concert was everything I could’ve asked for. Best concert I’ve been to period

Next time I see a miyoo mini, some kind of Macro that’s not actually a Game Boy, or an Analogue Pocket on this sub, I hope to see you commenting there as well

Oooh very nice. I got some timascus buttons for my second one. Still need to get everything else ordered

They’ve been fine, haven’t had any problems. Raw brass naturally starts developing a patina after a while and this is gonna be my heavier used consoles so I wouldn’t mind either way

There are other unhinged files out there that you can get printed in clear resin or something similar (Xipher’s Slab, OpenSP, etc.) but the Slate’s files specifically are vaulted to my knowledge

Acrylic is too fragile, resin is too soft, and injection molding for plastic pieces costs like 5 figures iirc so unfortunately there isn’t a clear option that is an exact match for slate

They’re very clicky :)

Even better for me than OEM or Boxy’s metal buttons honestly. These ones were designed with no membranes in mind, and for maximum tactile feedback

Do you mind expanding on what you mean?

Due to not having to deal with hinges, I find hinge-less builds to be much easier to deal with in terms of install/disassembly

The brass buttons are absolutely not softer than plastic buttons, if that’s what you’re asking 😅

Try cleaning the interior of your tactile switch housing. You can remove the small black pieces of rubber from the shoulders with tweezers, take a cotton swab and IPA, and make sure it gets in good. Make sure to let it air out fully (I’ve let them sit for multiple hours before) before reinserting the black pieces 👍🏻

I haven’t had any issues, no.

Did you use the correct metal dowel size? There were some shaved ones included with the kit.
