- I know it's been a while since I've made the last video, but that just means more mail to open, right? 12 packages picked up this time, some will work, some will not. A sneak peek into some upcoming videos

Thanks for watching - เกม
You're welcome, I'm the one who sent you Pokemon Liquid Crystal. Hope you can get it fixed!
What's his email?
I have a couple n64s I would liked fix.
I'm on a phone.
The email button doesn't show up on the about.
The PayPal thing does but I have to copy and paste.
@@captainbloxtasic133 I have no idea what you're asking for but congrats on finding your old cart!
The housing is repro. The stamped "Game Boy Advance" is quite a bit thinner and more raised. Your Fire Red is genuine, and you'll notice its thicker text and more flush to the cart surface.
yaaaayy a new video!! good to see you back :)
I look forward to the videos. Thanks for making time for this.
You know, last night I was LITERALLY composing a email to send to you asking if you were alright as we hadn't heard from ya in a while. 😁
Great to see you back making videos. Can't wait for you fix up those games!!!
Welcome back! Been missing these videos! I believe the Yoshi's Island might just need a new battery. I had a copy of Kirby Superstar that only went to a black screen. After replacing the battery, it booted right up. Can't wait to watch the repair videos for these items!
Nice look forward to seeing the upcoming projects
wow !! a wild video just appears !
more seriously , I discover this chanel 2 weeks ago when trying to fix my NES ( and I succeeded thanks to you ) , and I've watched every video since then
and after this I checked the date of the last video and realise that the last one was 3 month ago
so I told myself that this channel was dead and I will have no more good reparation video
so it's a good surprise , and I'm waiting to learn more awesome stuff about repairing retro stuff
this channel is maybe not the more professional and I don't learn a lot of complicated electronic stuff , but it's good for a novice like me and you always show perfectly all the operation you made
one day I hope I can even star to buy broken console on brocante ( I don't know the english word for this I'm french , it's a place where people sell their old stuff in the street )
because until now , every retro gaming stuff I buy is in perfect condition and so very expensive , but with all the knowledge I get from your video I can begin to buy broken stuff for a very low price and repair them myself :)
so in the name of my bank account ( gravely damaged by my retro gaming addiction ) , I say Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Glad to see that you are back with us. I was wondering when you are going to upload a new video
Great to see you back Your vids are always very informative
Excited to see these things get repaired!
I really enjoy watching your videos. Its nice to see you posted a new one. Do you fix modern items as well?
Glad to see you back, great vid as always
Great to have you back. Looking forward to more videos from you soon.
Got two done today, so should have the next one up soon
Dude its been forever good to see you back!
He's back! Hope all is well Adam. Long time no vid. ;-)
I knew you were a fellow Canadian from listening to you and now I know I was right haha. Great videos!
Roller Controller works with Slither (Pack in game) Like centipede sort of, and Victory and maybe a few others.
i love your mail day videos because i like to buy stuff from amazon and it's mail for me.
The Firered board is authentic. On the top left of the rear side you can see four gold rectangles, which no fakes replicate, plus the production numbers stamped into the label as you said.
I bought a white gameboy advance that was AS IS/UNTESTED for only $5. It came in and I put batteries in it and it worked! The shell was not in the best of shape and was missing the battery cover so I modded it into a aluminum housing with a rechargeable battery and the AGS-101 mod.
Woohoo, welcome back!
Welcome back! "Neglected to pick up my mail?" how does that work? Do you have a storage unit where Canada Poste delivers it to? ;-)
Nice haul. Glad you're still alive.
Thanks for uploading after 3 months
Looking forward to it!
I love these videos
I wish they would bring back the advantage controller for the Switch.
Excellent work preserving gaming history
Someone's Gotta do it. Keep this stuff out of the dump
I guarantee most GBA don't have their battery covers because we all bought third party rechargable battery packs! I did and was very very lucky to still have it and actually find it...
Super Nintendo carts have a DRM chip on them and when it fails (and that one had a tendency to be the first one to go on a SNES cart) the game enters some sort of "pirated" lockdown status which is characterized as the "locked screen" effect. Many "broken" SNES carts are actually working, the actual essential parts that is.
i love this channel
How did I miss this video?
You'll want to consult Best Electronics in California as they should have the Atari parts you might need to fix those 5200 controllers.
Colecovision units are true Z80 based computers. I've seen people use them with the ADAM computer add on and attach hard drives and run CP/M.
Can't wait for the new vids ;)
27:27 Oh my god we had that game. My mother bought it but couldn't figure it out and stopped playing. I tried to play it and it was...confusing to say the least. Would actually love to see a vid on that one.
SNES one of my all-time favorite game system. Few years ago I found a SNES again after my mom got rid of my old one but it didn't have the video cable so I can't use it 😢 is there any way to play it with a modern TV .I haven't found a adapter for the SNES that is reliable enough
The n64 eon adaptor works with the snes. Only issue is you have to cut some plastic off the snes to get it to fit lol.
If you dont have a composite (red white and yellow) hook up you're probably out of luck. They do make adapter boxes which upscales the signal to hdmi. Quality varies considerably and can introduce lag
Yoshi's Island used the SuperFX chip I believe
The COLECO roller controller came with a game called SLITHER... a centipede clone, of course.
Hell yeah
Welcome back man
welcome back!
20 dollars for a non-working GBA
Men the youtube vids about the GBA have really brought their price up haven't they
And since the GBA consolizer came out, broken GBAs have risen in demand.
@@UkraineJames2000 I don't think there's that much demand for a 140 device + installing it + providiing your own game boy. I would just get a nice gamecube and a gameboy player for that
@@MrSsbruto even Gamecube gba players run for a high price as well though
Gba players are cheap, it's the disc that costs $90+
Nice, a new video!
22:25 what is that little grey thing under the nes that comes out? I've always wondered it's purpose when I was a kid
Expansion port. The idea was they would have a disk add on system. To my knowledge, it was never used
@@RetroRepairs Ah thank you! Very neat, a mystery that's I forgot about that's bothered me since a kid has been solved! Love the channel dude
HE'S BACK
I believe that is a real fire red
$90 for a 32x they go for near $250 where I am located.
I dont know if its the right way to ask. But am just curious. How do u get this eBay junk? Is there a way to get them?
Just thought I'd mention you can find back covers for Game Boy Advances on eBay.
Yeah i know, but still just another part I'd need to get. Rather find a listing that had it already unless it's super cheap
@@RetroRepairs Ah that makes sense. I bought a GBA at a goodwill for $10 so it made sense to order the $0.99 back cover. Thanks for clarifying!
You don't have a 3D printer to fabricate a back cover? Look into the Creality Ender 3. It's a pretty good starter.
He's back!
Your Eject button is entirely for show at this point on your Snes.
What's the secret to getting all that juicy broken stuff from Ebay a decent prices? Most I come across are nearly full price.
Nice vid hope it won’t take long for the next one 😅
Just uploaded
I notice a lot of USPS labels. Do you have like a PO Box in the US and you just drive across the border periodically?
Yeah, i just go and pick up periodically
i am going to let you know that, its yours and a few other youtubers fault that i have bought some broken consoles, fixed them and sold them :P keep up the awesome videos!
Haha, I'm so sorry to hear of your successful repairs. Keep it up!
Can you please show us a repair on one of those Yoshis Islands? Those were super rough!
Am i the only one noticing his hand s shaking a lot
Suicide no me too really hope he’s okay❤️
Could be nerves or because the cam is so zoomed in you don't notice how steady his hand actually is he seems to be managing it so it doesn't seam involuntary at least but yeah kinda seems like it
@retrorepairs. Why dont you get a 3d printer and print those covers? Its cheap and very easy to do these days
I'd far rather use oem parts. I could order cheap parts from China too, but that's not the point
Lol didnt think of that myself 😅 good to see you back again. Love your vids
Never leave us for months like that again. I 👏 need 👏 my 👏 flux 👏 fix👏👏👏👏👏.
Next video i recorded is up your ally. Lots of flux
Louis Rossmann level flux?
MODE 7!!! IT'S TOO EXTREEEEEMMMM!!!!!
Is that a montreal Expo cap I spot?
Sure is
Let's fire this up!
*Burns the fucking game boy*
I love the hat! Go Expos!
Thanks. The rec ball team i run is the expos. We wear the powder blue jerseys, it's pretty awesome
@@RetroRepairs Went to see a few games when I was young. Wish I could take my kids now!
anther good video adam after watching your videos iam very tempted to purchse anther a retro console used to have a nintendo
Do it! Nes is pretty reliable with the exception of the pin connector. I wouldnt recommend an untested SNES. Notoriously unreliable hardware. I probably have about a 30% save rate on those.
@@RetroRepairs I was going to reply that I have only been able to save exactly two out of six until I thought about it for a minute haha...yeah, 30% is about spot on in my experience (I did buy a decent hot air rework station so I can swap chips and hopefully raise that percentage a tad) . And on the other hand out of twenty-ish NES consoles I have had only one that the solution wasn't to polish and rebend the pins. The one bad one had a bad ppu. Love the videos btw, I really like fixing this old gaming stuff and when I'm not it is nice to watch other people's process.
Please i need your help. Can you fix my sony psp go. It shuts off seconds i tturned on. I've taken it to a couple of places to have it fix and they have change the battery twice and still shuts down. I know you can fix it gor me.
cesar lopez tried reflashing your firmware?? Had same isseu when first jailbreaking it
Whoa dude it's been 84 years
I believe the 32X from bizznes17 also has a nice TH-cam Channel.
the 32X you purchased from bizznes17 is a youtuber as well, collab?!
You should take screenshots of the listing when you buy them.
Or just not take 4 month breaks
RetroRepairs breaks are a necessity. ;)
Man, I missed that theme song.
❤️👍
Could you please fix my sony psp go.
It’s been 84 years...
super Mario kart star fox and teenage mutant ninja turtles turtles in time 4 used the mode 7 chip
im pretty sure that is a real fire red
That much bubble wrap for some plastic game gear covers? Dude you got trolled.
Please... show us how you fix every single item!
Their name was GamerWorld2000, I'm betting they had another SNES.
Thats funny. Bizz_nes117 is the one that sold you the 32X back in March. He actually has a YT channel and is pretty popular
Hey, Yeah i never put that together. I've seen a few of his videos with all the games he buys at yard sales. All I can find at yard sales is a copy of mario/duck hunt they think is worth $20
Your snes pcb model rgb man , button eject name is printed white
Yeah, it's a later one, but i put the locking mechanism into it from the early models
I was just thinking, where is he
is that donation from mymatevince ?
I don't think so? Probably an unrelated vince
@@RetroRepairs should check his channel out... great entertainment and addictive... similar...
Can't you 3D-print new back covers?
Yes
😃
Uuuuuhhh.. new videos incoming :)
It’s really sad how of little it takes for people to just give up and give away stuff. People today are so lazy.
Hello RetroRepairs
KONA!!!!!!!!!!!
Can I send you a Genesis Model 1 to fix for me? :-D
You would have to email him
Go to the about section
I can't even get people to ship the fucking games i buy on eBay...
broken super mario cards, 20$ expensive, only idiot pay, 2$ parts have only.
i never seen you fix nothing ??
F̶i̶x̶i̶n̶g̶ Opening eBay Junk
Maybe its a very late nes
Very possible. I've never seen one, but I'll be able to tell by the board revision
1kg of plastic for a few battery covers? seriously?
My mom won’t let me get a Gameboy advanced ™ I’m sad
What's your email?
Buy 100 xbox one s and try to repair them and try to become big like tronicfix
I've seen tons of pokemon advance games on wish for 10 bucks. Bootleg from china
