Retro Stash Repairs

Retro Stash Repairs

My name is Miguel and welcome to my channel retro stash repairs. Recently I developed a passion for repairing and fixing retro consoles and electronics. So I decided to share my learning experience and hobby with everyone or anyone who finds similar interest. My content will mostly consist of gameboy related repairs and mods.

    I have a GBA SP that works fine except for the fact that once turned on it has a light red background all over the screen. Can it be repaired this way or do you have any other advice?

    The AGS-101 GBA SP (Backlit model) is the better GBA SP model. Nintendo should have sold the AGS-101 GBA SP as a launch model instead of selling the AGS-001 GBA SP (Original frontlit model) as a launch model in the first place. And by the way, the AGS-101 GBA SP model's colors and editions are graphite, pearl blue, peal pink, SpongeBob, Pikachu, surf blue and platinum silver with tribal tattoos.

    Yeah that would of been nice. And Ive never seen a tribal edition in ags 101. And your right, the colors for ags 101 models came in graphite black, pearl pink, and pearl blue.The surf blue, Yellow Pikachu edition and a spongebob one. plus also all the IQue ones which come in almost all the original colors.

    I hope you still respond to comments. Because I have a question. I have 2 GBA SP ags - 101's that I need to replace the shells for because of the dry rot on the hinges. I am worried about buying new shells tho. The reason is simple. I am no sure if there are any important differences in the shells of the AGS 101 and the AGS 001. If there isn't, i'll just buy two shells and replace them. if there is, then i'll need to be cautious when ordering shells.

    I found this game boy pocket that has a couple of non-working buttons - left direction and A button. Do you know if this can be fixed? Because...I know that for DMG's non-functional left direction and B buttons is a symptom of a shorted IC - and that is beyond repair. Wondering if that's the same case? Thanks!

  • @retrostashrepairs
    @retrostashrepairsАй бұрын

    I mean if you replace the IC with one from a donor board it can be replaced and not beyond repair. And yeah im sure it can. It can also just be dirty pads or broken traces from water damage etc. It can be a certain amount of reasons for them not working.

    That sucks. Amazon said that you just need a screwdriver to replace the cartridge reader. Looks like soldering is indeed involved. Or maybe it's true that GBA doesn't need soldering. But I can't seem to find any videos about how to install that.
