Watching this I assumed based on production value alone the view count was 370K not 370. You're putting out quality content that rivals the big guys!

[@_2ndliferetro]

Mate that’s so nice of you to say! We’ll get there some day! Thank you 🙏🏼

[@yusunai]

what the hecc, the production quality of the video is great as is the content. Subbed

[@_2ndliferetro]

Absolute legend! Thank you!! Welcome to the club!

The red/white combo looked good.

[@ElevatorLasagna]

I love the color combo! It’s too bad the red isn’t also matte but I think the sort of pokeball look is worth keeping it personally. Lots of character on something you worked hard on

[@_2ndliferetro]

Couldn’t agree more! I thought that too about the matte/shinny look but I think I’m growing used to it now! 😅

[@matthewwhite8388]

you have so little subscribers! you deserve more, i had a DSi growing up and was super good

[@_2ndliferetro]

Thank you so much mate! Appreciate the support! I was very jealous of the people with DSi’s growing up! You were very lucky!

[@___aZa___]

yeah dude. you're gonna have the 2k subs at the end of the year. Such a great video! I'm excited for more :)

[@___aZa___]

and these DS display-cables are HORRIBLE to work with! i feel your pain!

[@_2ndliferetro]

Mate, huge compliment! Thank you so much! We wanna just keep growing and putting out more! Thank you for the support 🙏🏼 And you’re not wrong! This was a very fiddly repair to do!

[@herodoesstuff]

def agree with everyone else that the quality and production value of this video is surprisingly good!! def will stick around to see more of ur stuff 👀

[@_2ndliferetro]

You’re a legend mate! Thank you for the kind words! Definitely tons of great content to come!

[@csgoofball]

i though the cologne bit was going to be a scentbird segment 😭

[@_2ndliferetro]

The fact you thought we had a sponsor is massive 😂🙌🏼

[@SomeAngryGuy1997]

I thought it was the whole farting and saying "Do you smell popcorn?" schtick 😂

[@perkulant4629]

Toothbrush is the key, with plenty of iso. I like to put a dry wet wipe(unscented) over the board saturate with iso then toothbrush scrub.

[@_2ndliferetro]

This is a great shout! I’ll give it a try if I come across a board like this again, thank you!

[@thegooddoctor7898]

I love the Red and White DSi!!

[@_2ndliferetro]

[@emstixx]

[@_2ndliferetro]

U r amazing! Thank you 🤩

Bought a broken dsi last week. All it needed was some IPA in the cartridge slot. Besides an L-button that doesn’t work when you press it too fast it works

[@leecollins5479]

i have 2 dsi xl's and love the screens on them and there are so easy to mod to add the gba function back in

[@TousiffTH]

Good stuff man, subbed.

[@_2ndliferetro]

Yes mate! Appreciate it

[@Kay-ty2bp]

You could just make stuff like that so merchandise that could be a good idea I'm not sure

[@_2ndliferetro]

Solid idea, we’ve been thinking of selling some of the stuff we mod or maybe giving it away, I’m keeping this DSi tho 😅

[@almeidachannel7121]
