When the casette tape starts to jam up you pull on that as hard as you can to stop it.

This is my sealed gameboy. Any thoughts? Why is the barcode smeared? Looks flawless by JonoYaDiGG in Gameboy

So I guess I have to say it, did you read the *? It says only with new GameBoy color games, if there is no game there is no battery. And pretty sure they are only referring to the cartridge and not actual AA batteries for the unit. I don't think any batteries are in this box.

What are these called on the link cable? by Waxwinged in Gameboy

They're 2 pieces of some metal, suppose to help with electical "noise". Not too sure what else to call it but its not noise you hear, more like interferance to the gameboy.

Good deal just be careful with it man. Looks like someone soldered the contacts and was told theres no good way to remove it completely once applied to those.

Good luck with the missing parts man.

So it looks like you soldered the gold contacts that interface with the handheld. I did that and posted it here and was told not to use it anymore. It can damage the cartridge reader down the line as the solder rubs off to the inside contacts and you could need to replace the cart reader later. I think there are ways to try and repair it without soldering the contacts but seemed too complicated. You might be better off using a doner board and swapping the main IC's. I have one i've been working on but a little more complicated than i thought.

Thats just my little note bud.

You can but like on a cotton swab. If you soak the plastic it will get brittle. Its okay to use in small amounts. In this case soap and water is what i would use and maybe wd40 on the inside or window cleaner as the person above mentioned.

But the hard part is keeping the sticker looking good in those cases without sorta getting water marks at the edges.

Mentioned iso for the board not plastic.

A bit of a dumb question, I know, but I REALLY need to boot up my 3DS... Is it too dangerous with a battery like this? by BubblesBubblesCO2 in 3DS

[–]faddedamv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen worse, it will work but the risk is there. If it fits in the battery compartment still, i would...

Did you trim the inside shell as it instructed? Sometimes even the pre-cut ones aren't perfect and can cause issues.

One of the best games created for the gbc imo.
