I just unpacked @[email protected]’s GameGear. It is dead, and most probably suffers from crappy capacitors. I already have a full replacement set here, so I will post some updates in the next days to weeks. Let’s see if the LCD screen is still viable, or a TFT mod is also required.

@[email protected] it is the same as SMS cartridges? what was it, security screws or something like that?
@[email protected] yes, might be the same screws. Definitely a kind of security bit. The smaller 3.8mm variant is I think also used on GameBoy cartridges.
I just want you to know that while the information you’re posting will never have a practical use to me, I greatly appreciate you posting it. The world needs more people like you.
