atkelar | Restoration Project #6 - A Bunch Of Games @atkelar | Uploaded March 2019 | Updated October 2024, 16 hours ago.
Welcome back! It's been a busy month for me with my RL job and a convention to take care of, so here's a bit simpler video, just to keep the rythm of releases up, OK!
I still have quite a backlog of tinkering video material and hopefully a bit more time in the coming weeks, so expect another one soon-ish.
For this installment, I did some repair on older LCD games. Most of you might not even remember those little time killers of the 80s.
A friend asked me to have a look at two of these and a Gameboy Color cartridge. I was unsure about how much I could do for these, as the designs are not really made for servicing, but hey, they were not working now, what could get worse by trying?
I know that the battery replacement would benefit from a battery that includes the contacts, but I couldn't find a reasonable replacement when I needed it, so the next best one that fits and has the right voltage had to make do.
