Restoring the Original Nintendo Game Boy Color - Retro Console Restoration & Repair - ASMR

[@luisreyes1963]

A shame so many vintage game consoles & handhelds are lost to neglect & damage. Good to know there are people who care enough to take the time & effort in restoration of said systems. 😁

[@taw386]

It's...more absorbing than I would have imagined. Restoration of something complex, made to seem so simple. Inspiring, really.

[@SirCraigius]

Incredible job. It looks like that gameboy spent the last decade or two in a puddle of radioactive waste. Was fascinating watching you restore it :)

[@resEG]

Thanks for the comment! 👍😊

[@stevewilks8141]

....you do realize this is staged, right? That he himself did this to an old gameboy, anyone selling a product like this online would at least wipe it off before officially selling it

This video brought on all the nostalgia. I recently found my old Game Boy Color. I was so happy to find it; it's the first I've bought with my first ever paycheck. I was so happy because my father never allowed us to play videogames and that was the first foray I've had with videogames. It required some repairs for it to work and the repairs are a bit steep for me since I'm currently unemployed, but one day I'll get it fixed.

My boy ain’t test the speaker, Battery contacts or any of the circuits. Just tried to turn on twice and knew a spit job would restore it 100% lol

[@stevewilks8141]

...you do realize it's staged right? He got/bought an old gameboy, but it isn't "fun" restoring it if it's just old and with a little dust, so it has to be sprayed down etc with all this filth to make the "restoration" more satisfying

[@مامتىمهندسة-م7ن]

I had a cool idea for a much better, more “permanent” UV tank! Start with a fish tank of the appropriate, useable size. Clean the glass on the outside of the tank thoroughly, removing any and all residue (fingerprint grease, soup, label adhesive, or whatever is present, it’s very important to clean the surface of the glass first). Then, apply a silver mirroring paint (which available in many places that sell spray paint, as well as online) or, if you want to be fancy, a 2-part mirroring kit. You can cut the lid of the tank to accommodate the lights, of make your own from another sheet of glass of clear plastic, with the same mirroring technique used on the rest of the tank. It would be 100% reflective, and so more uniform and effective, and safer to use, as all IV light would be contained.

Nintendo is notorious for trying to prevent people from fixing their devices, hence the special screws. They just want you to buy a new one when the old is broken. I doubt they’ll be lending a hand…
