Can you please fix some consoles for me? The Power and Option buttons on both my NGPCs have gotten unresponsive, my Game Boy Color has a permanent ringing sound problem, my 5552 model PlayStation doesn’t always detect controllers and I have many other problems with other systems! Can you please work on them?
hello i am trying to fix my old console and i don’t have a soldering gun would i be able to scrape the debree and erosion off without solder and it work
Where are you based? I have a spare 1991 MD with Black Screen that needs looking at. If beyond repair the motherboard is going on the wall framed lollol. But if you wanted to take a look at it first...
Good question actually. I didn't take a note. It's one that needs a triple bypass anyway. I think my old man ears are getting better attuned to the difference in audio thanks to you ;)
@@NewRetroRepair looks and sounds good to me :) a Mk1 with the sound flaw would've been a VA7 and that would've had a QFP 68000 and the discrete YM2612 removed and a YM3438 added to the graphics & PSG ASIC similar to the Mk2 VA1 etc
Y'know, I couldn't remember this video so just saw what I did and you're right lmfao. I'm a lot better at this stuff than I was back when I made this to be fair. I made this back when I was a wee baby repair bloke. Anyway, the wire is just some enamelled copper wire. Be damned if I can remember the gauge of it though because I did this over 3 years ago.
Great job with the trace repair, you really do good with these retro consoles
Thanks Jason. It took me ages to dig out the corroded via on this one 🤣
Nice one dude. I bought two of these off fleabay for 20 quid. One no power the other no display. Will have a look at those pesky traces.
Each problem is unique with these so keep your eyes open for anything that looks dodgy.
background tune sounds like the Scatman song... (from4:46 onwards)
Nice fix man used to own one of these great console.
Yeah they're great machines. Can't beat the Sonic, Golden Axe and Streets of Rage franchises.
@@NewRetroRepair Yeah their awesome and road rash was one of my favs too 😂👍
Super taf top😊
Is it not possible to use micro solder balls in the veir
