good lordddd please deliver meeee 😩😩😩

they could never make me hate pokémon heartgold

bought some nes consoles that purportedly didn't power on at all thinking i'd get to have some fun with the power module on them. they all just needed their cartridge readers bent back in to place? not even cleaned (but i did do that anyway). my collection grows

another nds lite reshelled. this one didn't have either screen working, so both of these screens are chinese replacements.

the touch digitizer connector clamp on the mother board was snapped off, so i had to use a tactical hot glue glob to hold it in place (it is pushed on by the other side)

Oh Yeah Baby

finally went directly to china to get screens and suddenly it works fine! and it was cheaper! and it's a bottom screen with an adapter but it works! i will be learning mandarin

slight yellowing but we ball

bought 4 nds lites listed as for parts/repair and they all just work? hinges aren't even broken or anything. one even has the gba slot cover and a stylus. how pleasant.

ah yes--buy a nds lite screen! surely all of the pixels will work perfectly because these terrible replacements cost like half a console anyway. i booted chrono trigger w the magenta pixel, and it actually just pops out at you. maybe third time is the charm.

total mainline dragon quest collection... most still have price tags on them. i am disc traders' greatest supporter

will complete them all soon. vii is taking its sweet time

got my childhood ds systems. both succumbed to water damage back in the day--literally 2012 and earlier. bottom screen from the older one and top screen from the later one makes for a functional ds lite! really happy to make something out of these and to use the ds again

said gameboy color playing dragon warrior iii! might start buying more and selling them as a sort of hobby. would love to keep these in circulation

bought a nds lite in 2 pieces from a local shop, still boots! will probably nab a new top screen and shell for it

bought a gameboy color that had its batteries leak over the board and break the traces for the A and B buttons because these early revisions of the board have the metal go through the test point which allowed this to happen. fixed her up with my terrible soldering iron that balls the metal terribly

the feds almost got me today

see like my feed is just chock full of this. "millennial slop" or something

i am still on iOS 14.7.1 because of TrollStore. if apple ever decides to allow sideloading, i may consider upgrading lol
