When you finish the lot, you should make a video on everything you were able to fix, total cost, and possible profit if someone sold everything. It would be cool to see it all once its done.
Now THAT would be a video!
"Phat" is basically the retro "Thicc", it's not offensive and I'm pretty sure it was cool back in the day for things to be "Phat". I know that the original PS3 was referred to as "Phat".
Nah, we just called it fat.
but it is fat
Phat is cool and fat means go on a diet or the version of a device that is thicker and or larger than the next model to follow it often they would call it a slim.
Phat also means Pretty Hot and Tempting
PSP 1000 was also called the PHAT model back in the day, especially in the modding scene
I never trusted myself enough to disassemble my old Gameboy and put it back together again......
......until I subscribed to RetroFuture
……..and that’s when the gameboy broke
I've done bottom screens/digitizers on the phat DS. Never the top. Wow this is much better than later models where you have to pass the ribbon cable through the bloody hinges. I hate hate HATE doing that and have smashed up a DSi because I lost my temper trying lol
Yep that shit SUUUUCKS
i have original DS, I love this console.
i use an emulator
It's durable, can be played in the sun and has gba support and lasts a good 6 hours. These make it the best DS to get.
@Morgen Ochin thats not very specific. There were 4 models, the phat, the lite, the ds "I" and the ds "I" XL, but they are all comfy to hold
I've been playing on that since I was 5. I'm still playing on it, even 10 year's later!
@Morgen Ochin no, seriously. They had a teal/blue of every model!
It's an inanimate object, I'm pretty sure it doesn't have feelings so call it PHAT because that's what it is
Yup. Plus I'm sorry but using the word fat shouldn't be offensive. 2020 is so backwards on certain things lol.
Technically it's thick not fat. Fat is used for animals and living things. Now regardless of your opinion on wether or not fat is an offensive term... man doesn't want to use the term
So happy that you posted this video. It's what i needed. I got from a thrift store a perfectly working ds fat for 2€. Only issue was the hinge was broken. But after seing in your vid that i could unscrew just the top half of the case. I was able to repair the plastic from the hinge with ease now that i had more space to work with withour the plastic back cover. What i did was to carve a piece of plastic that fits exactly in the place of the old lower hinge, and with a solder iron, i pressed on a small piece of a paper clip, like 0.5 mm, and i binded the two pieces of plastic together. Now i saved around 12€ because i don't need to buy a new case from aliexpress.
"Your nail is the best prytool"
Nope, it isnt. Try saying that when a piece of metal slices the skin underneath the nail.
woosh.
Oh god. The agony. The PAIN
It’s a place to store your snack for later
Why does it feel so bad even if it didn’t happened to me.
the ghost pain of this
I am one of those younger people and I love these videos! Got a PSP that does not do a single thing (Everything is connected inside as well, I don't know where its problem lies) and a Nintendo DS with a broken hinge and very worn shell. I'll have to take a good scroll in your library to fix these things. Thank you for providing this amazing content!
Wait, if there is rust, than there is a possibility, that it has made its way to the DS's motherboard. Maybe there's no rust, but I think you really should check it
Thanks for the awesome video! I feel like everyone has been getting on your back about how you make your videos, but just do what you want to do and people who like you will stick around regardless! Thanks for the great content, maybe I’ll try to repair my own old ds now that I’ve seen how easy it can be 👍🏻
It takes a lot to make me genuinely laugh at a video, but 'Thicc Boy' did tickle me.
Keep up the great videos Elliot!
You already had me really into repairs. I’ve nodded a Gameboy Pocket with a backlight and rechargeable battery and I’m ordered a 2ds xl to repair with a new screen which will come Monday. I broke the first 2ds xl but I’m not gonna let that stop me from trying again. Thanks for the inspiration. This is something that I finally genuinely have a passion for in a way
I was born 5 years after this old bois release and I still adore it 💛💛💛
Hey Elliot, just wanted to let you know that I love your content! I love both the more in-depth tutorial style videos as well as the videos with more editing and music. It is nice to alternate between both styles I think.
That thumbnail DS is straight out of silent hill
Thanks for making these simpler repair videos. I know nothing about repairing consoles so it was really helpful

Fan of the series "repairing my best lot of consoles" haha. Greetings from Argentina
Your ad for Skill Share was HILARIOUS! Kudos to you and Emily
I never repair consoles but i love this channel and tronicsfix. Watching them repair stuf is really cool.
The aesthetic of your background and the wall decoration is SICK
I've bought 6 gameboy pockets since watching your channel.
Pink, yellow, black, green, atomic purple, and clear.
just bought one of these thicc boys as I never had one as a kid, and it has the exact same pixel damage and I am so excited to crack it open. This vid was very informative and keep up the amazing work :)
That shirt is sick. Another kickass job. Thanks Elliot.
Hi Elliot, I’ve been watching your videos for about a year now. All thanks to your help I have just fixed a Nintendo 2ds And a 3ds Xl. Hope you read this message. Have a good day!
Just wanted to say, that pink DS is so pretty. I always wanted a pink one. I only got a baby blue one as a kid (which is also pretty but my reckless self broke it).
Was thinking of ordering one from Aliexpress but it says iQueDS or something like that whrn you turn it on. 🥺 Its hard to find for me.
The iQue ds was a console released only in China to work around the video game console ban it came with games pre-installed
theres quite a few of them for sale on ebay that might be more legit
If it helps, I got one on eBay recently very inexpensively from a seller in Japan. The shipping wasn't bad at all.
@@francescamackay1724 oh okay. i thought they had a r4 in it, guess not. that's too bad, if it was just a regular ds i would have been interested in it. thank you for the info.
@@deo6212 really? I'm having a hard time finding a pink one. When I search for it, the only search results are pink DS lites.
I just got a phat pink ds last year in Japan and it was in really good condition, it's nice to see that people still care about this device
Just a great video! Cant wait to see the next one! Keep it up man!
Yey, another great video!! I'm addicted :) love that DS!
I feel like the old intro had way more character and was a bit better😂
hahhahahahahahahaha saying phat is perfectly fine...... 😂😂😂
I like how the picture has be changed to make it look dirtier than it was, nice and honest.
My phat DS has some dead backlight pixels on the top screen, might get a replacement in the future, along with a much less beat up housing
0:00 I kept playing it for some reason and it hypnotizing if you do it over and over again.
lately i've been translating the japanese that pops up in these videos, so...
his sleeves say "mega console"
Its ultra ;) not mega
@@DoubbleDdragon it says mega though メガ
I am entretained by this kind of videos, and i'm subscribing
Your acting with the guitar was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Whats with the clickbait thumbnail? Theres no rust on the screen :(
I absolutely like when he says “happy days”
Perfect job. Nothing too hard and a great result.
Nintendo needs to hire this guy, he did so good!
My original ds just had its top screen break. This helped me know a replacement screen will work. Nice to know I don’t need to do a ribbon cable through the hinge
Great video elliot!!
I thought he said “P H 80” and I was thoroughly confused until I checked the comments
It’s so beautiful 💖 thank you for posting
Well recently i found out about your channel and I'm watching every new and old video and it got me really interested in repairing things again and i will be soon buying a 2ds or ds with a dead screen and the screwdriver in the description and trying fixing it myself thanks for the inspiration
Best of luck! Join the Facebook community group if you have any issues!
Awesome stuff as always!
That is a fantastic telecaster Eliot!
Please do more Videos Like this where you Show very slowly and accurat how to repair
Wow would love to have that in my collection...only have a broken DS lite
I migt not be commenting on all ur videos but i always watch and like them cuz there intrestingggg
"'The Retro Future' is brought to you by Mr. Sheen: want it clean? Try Mr. Sheen!"
I had that same color on my DS but it was a DS Lite. I didn't know about the original DS until I got Super Marip 64 DS and saw the thumb thingy in the manual
I used to have one of these bad boys in the same color, I miss it, but now I have a switch lite as it's replacement
I had a pink original DS when I was little. It broke a long time ago, and I actually have no idea of where it is... This made me come back to my childhood 😢
What if this is that ds? Low chance with at least MILLIONS of these out there but still there
Did you check the other half for rust and water damage
Looks great bro
He was so excited for the speakers XD
This is what I love to see. Repairs I can never do. Haha.
Your shirt is so rad, where did you get it from?
You should make a playlist specifically of the more unedited repairs as a sort of “How to” for people wanting to dissect their consoles. DS is pretty tough to do compared to Game Boys
Great Video! Could you change a Nintendo DS-Lite Touchscreen and make a Video of it?
wow it came out so good
Where did you buy your N64 shirt? Looks amazing!
Original DS is surprisingly easy to repair. I love the top screen design, much easier to work on than DS Lite top screen repair.
I remember having a DS Lite it was a major part of my childhood but sadly i dropped it outside on the cement and it broke it was still working but it got floppy
Unfortunately my DS has a small spot of rust in the charging port. It still works, but it is kinda annoying that I didn’t take very good care of my DS when I was younger. I occasionally play my DS for the nostalgia and whatnot, but I can’t help but notice that dang rust in the port.
Is there any way i can get foam replacements for the two pads on the top screen? They became degraded and sticky after so many years but i dont want to buy a whole case just to replace that 2 bits
Can you do a video on how to repair a DS Lite D-pad? I have an old pink DS Lite with a broken D-pad and I would love to finally be able to play on it properly.
Wow pink is my favorite color
Ketchup works on rust really well. Not sure how it work on plastic, but would be interesting to see.
Your sweatshirt is so A E S T H E T I C, I love it
Where did you buy it?
I sent one of these to you ages ago did you get it. It was in a right ruff state.
Yayyy new video finally a refurb
Do you ever sell the refurbished consoles that you fix? If so, where can I purchase?
hello hopefully someday you can put subtitles in Spanish since I like your videos a lot and I would like to learn more and carry out any of your mod or repair tutorials saludos desde Veracruz, México.
What is the screwdriver brand that you are using?
I know this is rather late but I have a question. I have a first gen 3ds xl that I own and I fell down the stairs with it and it broke in half. I want to get my pokemon and game data off of it but everytime I plug in the new screen I got, it refuses to turn on and without it, it shuts off in 5 minutes by itself. Is there any way to fix it or is everything on it a lost cause? IT's got like 5 years of game data and stuff on it and I just want to transfer it all to my new 3ds XL.
When the project about the macintosh came ?
Hey bro. I recently got a usb cable to charge my Gameboy advance sp. I wanted to know if it's safe to charge with this like I don't want it to ruin my GBA sp battery. If i put the usb into my laptop and charged my gbasp with it would there be any problems
I have a DS lite with a broken hinge. I hope you make a video on it
I had the original silver DS, I let my brother borrow it for one night and when he gave it back there was a chunk out of the casing 🙃
I have one of these but there is a sticker on it. Is there a good way to remove it without scratching it to bits?
The DS Lite speaker also works for a Wiimote
You have a Baja telecaster
Dude I want that
Just a thought. Shouldn’t you have checked the inside of the main body as well to make sure that the rust was only isolated to the top screen shell? I’m just wondering if it got wet enough to rust out in one half that it might have in the other as well.
Where did you buy that dope n64 shirt?
Good looking ds
I have rust on the top display on the inside of the screen with my 3ds XL I don’t know how to clean that. It makes my corner of the right side and top orange.
Whats a good replace battery?
good work
If the top part was so rusty im worried about the bottom part
I had the Cobalt Blue version but it didn't have a Stylist
I love the og DS 😍
Hey I wanna get into Nintendo repair what gear do I need to start?
This is a bit of a unrelated question but is there a way I can buy a pre assembled custom gba or ds cause I wasted like 250 on the gba or ds cause I think I ruined the screen along with the gba that I had and don't really feel like I want to risk wasting my money again, I'd rather let a professional or someone at least more skilled than me do it
can you play Wonderwall or Freebird solo on the Guitar?
When is the Mr. Sheen sponsorship coming?
What's the liquid you're using to clean out the rust?
