🎉 Alicia Part 2 — It’s Alive, Running, and Finally in a Case! Let’s Complete the Build!
In today’s episode we carry on with the Alicia project — the Mini-ITX Amiga 1200-inspired build. This time the board is up and running, fully assembled, and mounted in its new case.
We’ll walk through the final stages of the build, check everything over, fire it up, and see how this Mini-ITX Alicia system behaves now that it’s properly enclosed. But inside, who knows what it's like?
Join me as we wrap up the Alicia journey, test the system, and talk about what’s next for this compact Amiga 1200-style machine.

![Can This Dead Game Boy Pocket Be Saved?

Today we’re taking a look at a boxed red Nintendo Game Boy Pocket that apparently has absolutely no signs of life…
No power.
No LED.
Nothing.
But with old handhelds like this, sometimes the issue is simple…
…and other times you open them up and discover complete chaos inside.
In this video we tear down, inspect and attempt to revive this classic Nintendo handheld to see whether it can be brought back from the dead.

Repair attempts
The Game Boy Pocket released back in 1996 as Nintendo’s slimmer redesign of the original Game Boy, and nearly 30 years later these handhelds are becoming harder to find in good condition — especially coloured variants like this one.
Hopefully this one can be saved.
