Noob question, will this process cause the plastic to become more brittle?
@otherretro Күн бұрын
@@rodrigotavares2884 I honestly don’t think doing this once makes a difference. Doing this many times maybe. The plastic doesn’t feel any different than my other Saturn controllers.

Looks like an absolute nightmare. You might as well have just bought a new one for the amount of things you replaced and the amount you paid for said parts. A good condition new one may generally cost a little more, but you’d have gotten a first party shell which would’ve made it well worth it, given that the third party shell options available are lackluster. You made due with what you had, though. If good condition first party parts were more accessible, this could’ve been a more satisfying restoration , but alas.

@@certifiedfridge luckily the cpu-20 motherboard can be modded to add brightness settings similar to the DS Lite using flash me. I like the phat model because it is more comfortable to hold and the clicky buttons have a better feel than the DS Lite. If the phat had the DSi screens it would be perfect.
