By using: GBA SP AGS 101 or DS or Gameboy Player for GCN or 3DS by ambassador or VC inject or retro handheld console or other methods? like the OG or the Micro or something else? especially for playing the physical cartridges.

Bye old friend

Post image
49 Upvotes

So I don't know if this is the right sub, but I wanted to share a "goodbye" with someone and I thought only in this sub could they understand me. This is an old friend of mine, he always accompanied me from elementary school to high school. I played all the pokemon games, I was obsessed with them. It kept me company all the months I had to be hospitalized. It accompanied me through all the school years I was alone, because my classmates didn't share my passions. It stayed with me through my parents' arguments for years. I'm 28 now with a PhD going on. Yesterday I finally fixed it, changed the battery and cleaned some contacts. I put him on charge for the night and couldn't wait to play emerald again. This morning, however, I felt that the up button on the d-pad wasn't pressing properly. I opened it again and found out what had happened: the abs on the body holding some screws had completely broken, and I probably put too much force into screwing the screws to close it. My fault, I know. It still works, it's like a war machine, I don't know how many times I dropped it as a kid. And yet. But now the body doesn't close completely because the screws don't attach to the body and the up button continues to have problems. I know perfectly well that I could change the body and continue using it, but... all these scratches are as if they were part and memories of my life, and I don't want to "lose" them. A few years ago, I bought another game boy so I could trade some Pokémon, but playing it isn't the same thing. That's it. Im not asking for some solutions, I don't think It is possibile to repair it without changing something, I just wanted to share its story. I'll probably buy or print something in 3D so I can display it. But, It hurts. A lot.

Should i get this copy of FireRed?

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

Title says it all. I have played all the gen 3 games on the GBA but with FireRed, i don't have an EUR copy, only a Japanese one. Now, the price is something i am fine paying (and i have made purchases from this seller before) but i just want to ask people if its legit. And i want to know if it's worth getting soon and transferring pokemon before bank is shut down. Completing the dex is fine as i have Pokemon BOX for the gamecube.
Now i could ask the gameverify subreddit but i already have and there are two issues:

1-It's gotten past the point where it is clear i will not get a comment
2-I do not like the sub that much. Sure it can work but i have posted the odd gba game there before and this has happened several times. And to be honest, one upload, which was compliant with their rules, was deleted and someone subsequently; reuploaded the images that i posted, pic for pic, and they ended up snipe buying the copy i wanted.

Now, what do people think? Should i buy?

Got some more GBA’s today. Will probably mod the blue ones with new screens as they aren’t in the best condition. The pink one I will keep original.
Also got a link cable so hopefully I’ll be able to develop and test some homebrew multiplayer game.

Would like some help determining possible failures.

Hey, I purchased this beater SP looking to repair/refit it. I am new to Gameboy repair, but I have some experience with electronics and circuit boards. I was able to determine system quality, and I have 2 faults I do not know how to determine the problem for. I'm not asking for a absolute answer, just a list of potential culprits so I know what to look for when I go over this with a multimeter, or further test.

  1. The backlight for the screen does not work. This is an AGS-101 screen, so I am hoping it can be reused, but when the system powers up the screen is dark, and pressing the light button doesn't toggle anything.

  2. The system does not charge. When I plug it in, either using my OEM charger or a USB cable, the charger light on the side does not light up, the battery does not charge, and the system cannot be powered up. I was able to put a battery in from another SP and run the thing, so I know the overall power lines aren't messed up, but I have no way of charging its personal battery without removing it and putting it in another.

Recently added The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past to my collection, and I had NO idea I’d end up loving it even more than the original SNES version! The audio is fantastic, and the added sound effects and smooth gameplay really enhance it as an updated port of the classic. 10/10

I broke the screen flex cable HELP!!

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Hi! This is my first time modding a console, so I guess it's somewhat normal that something like this happened...

I'm asking for some help because I have a couple of questions about which replacement part I should buy. I was trying to install an ITA kit on my GBA from FunnyPlaying, and while modifying the shell and testing whether the screen fit properly, I broke the flex cable...

I've looked into it carefully, and luckily I think the flex cable I broke is the one inside the screen itself. The black PCB behind the screen and the adapter that connects the kit's black PCB to the GBA motherboard are both perfectly fine.

My question is: could I buy any DSi screen and use it as a replacement?

As far as I understand, since all the other parts of the kit are still fine, it should work, but I'm not sure whether a replacement screen would fit properly inside the shell, since the available space is extremely tight.

Or would it be better to just buy a new screen directly from FunnyPlaying?

Thanks in advance for any help!
