- 🐸🎮 Embark on a retro gaming rescue mission with Battletoads for the SEGA Genesis in this thrilling repair tale! Join me as I confront the challenges of a non-functioning cartridge, diving deep into the inner workings to uncover the source of its ailment. Despite an initial setback with cleaning the pins, perseverance prevails as I methodically test continuity and diagnose a faulty diode within the chip. With ingenuity and precision, I implement a 1000 OHM resistor workaround, bridging the gap between defeat and victory. Witness the triumphant revival of Battletoads as it springs back to life, ready to unleash its pixelated power once more! 🕹️🔧✨

Wooooooo!!! Thank you for your support!!! 🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺😁😁😁
Thanks for another awesome video dude! 👍
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed it!! 🐺🐺😁🐺
Another fantastic video.
Thanks !
Glad you enjoyed it!! 🐺🐺😁😁
Awesome save! Going to have to see if we have any candidates for this one! Nice work!
Thank you!! Awesome!! It’s a real satisfying and easy repair!! The more people know about this repair the less these cartridges end up in the garbage!! 🐺🐺😁😁
"Anti-croak mode activate!"👍
🤣🤣🤣 that’s awesome!!! 🤣🤣🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺🐺
Great video. (So many stickers)
Thanks!! Yes an excessive amount!! Guess blockbuster wanted to make sure no one took it🐺🐺🤣🤣
another great fix of a classic awesome job Nick
Thank you so much!! 🐺🐺😁😁
Man, this seems like such a common issue. Some great QA, Sega.
Yeah it’s really common and it’s always the same pin as well. I’m not sure if SEGA is to blame or it’s from misuse. SEGA did have some parts issues back then. 🐺🐺😁😁
Thanks for the in depth explanation of how the diodes and the chips work I was kinda wondering. What all that did when it was OL
Your welcome!! It’s really interesting that these ROM chips have diodes in them. I did not know that when I started repairing these cartridges. What’s even more interesting is that most of the time the pin that is OL is usually the same one that was in this video!! So that diode on that particular pin is a common failure on these Genesis cartridges!!🐺🐺😁😁
Learned something new today, cool.
Additionally shows the importance to opening a cart before buying it (even if it works). I would rather choose a cart free of manual fixes if given the chance.
Awesome!! Glad to hear that!!! Yes bring a game bit screwdriver with you!! If the seller won’t let you open the games then you probably don’t want to buy from them!! Also I’ve seen games that work and they still have a ton of gross stuff / water damage on the inside!! 🐺🐺😁😁
Bro, I get so hyped when you fix a game, especially with the resistors. Makes me want to go grab a stock pile of games to fix. So far, I only had 1 it was a starfox for snes with 5 broken traces.
That’s awesome!! Thank you!! I gota warn ya it becomes addictive!! I have a huge pile of broken stuff just waiting for me to fix!! 🐺🐺😁😁
I'm all for it!
Ha ha!!! Awesome!! 🐺🐺😁😁
That sega console need a good cleaning
Yeah it does!! I probably should re paint it and change the capacitors too. Sometimes it makes a humming noise that’s really loud and annoying… 🐺🐺😁😁
nice, agora e so reparar o controle
Thank you!! Yeah that controller was acting a bit funny. I’m going to have to take it apart and give it a clean!! 🐺🐺😁😁
@@wolfmanrepairs LOL
What was that oil you used on the cart contacts again?
I cleaned the edge connector contact pins with Brasso. Here’s a link to it on amazon:

Hope that helps 🐺🐺😁😁
@@wolfmanrepairs sweet thanks 👍🏾
Anytime!! 🐺🐺😁😁
I have a minty CIB copy of Battletoads for Sega that stopped working sometime ago. Wondering if mine’s got the same issue as seen in this video. Otherwise, it’s a shame it’s currently just a great looking paperweight.
Hopefully you are able to fix your copy of Battletoads!! Let me know if yours had the same issue 🐺🐺😁😁
@@wolfmanrepairs Well, what do ya know? Looks like my copy has the same issue as the one in your video here. Took me a bit longer to diagnose thanks to a faulty multimeter. It was a cheap one, so I wound up ordering a Fluke 115 to replace it with. Wasn’t cheap, but it should last a very long time. Anyway, I was also able to test it against a known working copy of this game, in which everything on the board worked and provided a point of reference. And now that I know my copy exhibits the same fault yours did, I ordered some of the resistors you linked. Hopefully all it takes is one of those to bring this gem back to life.
I’m glad you were able to find the issue!! That stinks about your multimeter though. The fluke meter that I have is over 20 years old!! I hope your new meter serves you well!! And that you’re able to get your copy of Battletoads back up and running after the 1k ohm resistor install!! 🐺🐺😁😁
Geez, remove all those Blockbuster Video stickies. Curate the games.
Yeah this one had a bunch of stickers on it. But it’s also part of this cartridges history. In this case if I remove them this cartridge will still look terrible. Unless I put a new label on it 🐺😁
