I Bought 44 Broken Handheld Game Consoles from eBay - Can I Fix Them? I paid a total of $560 for these 44 handhelds which works out to about $12 each. I'm hoping to be able to repair most of them and make a good profit overall.

In this video, I replace the speaker in a Game Boy Color, remove some serious corrosion from a Game Boy Advance, and fix some battery problems in a few Game Boy Advance SP's. I also find that one of the Game Boy Advance SP's was infested with little cockroaches! Gross! But with this many handhelds we're going to have to do a Part 2 next week so stay tuned for that when I work on repairing some 2DS, 2DS XL, 3DS, 3DS XL, DS Lite, DSi, DSi XL, and PSP handhelds.

For the 2DS that won't recognize cartridges, check the region. The 3DS family is region locked, so if the cartridge is for a different region than the console it will appear to not read it. It could be a PAL or Japanese console, and you have a US cartridge. I'm glad Nintendo didn't go that route with the Switch.

12:18 - I think you are confusing the PSP with the PS Vita. The PSP actually had great sales, and it was indeed ahead of its time, you're right. But the sales for the PSP being so good is what prompted the PS Vita's appearance. Also, the PSP competed with the DS/DS Lite/DSi, while the PS Vita was the one that competed with the 3DS. Unfortunately, the sales for software were nowhere near as high as the ones for hardware. The PSP, while very high selling, was easily "hacked" and ran on homebrew a lot of the time. Which involved people downloading games illegally, which led to people not buying the actual games. So, with the Vita, Sony did a lot of things, like making the memory proprietary, amongst other things, which ultimately led to it not selling anywhere near as well as it should. Also came with way too high of a price tag for a handheld. Even the 3DS, when it first launched, sold poorly because it had a price tag higher than what people were willing to pay. But after they sliced the price on it, it sold like hot cakes. The PS Vita, unfortunately, never got enough of a treatment like that, and it never really sold like that. Quite unfortunate, because it was amazing for its time, with games like Killzone, Gravity Rush, and even an Uncharted for it, leading the forefront of its amazing lineup of games. People were also afraid to make games for the PS Vita, because of how easily they were pirated on the PSP. No one wants to put money, time, effort, and sweat into a game that is just going to be pirated.

A lot this large would definitely be s fun project and could even make some money off of it. If nothing else you can learn a lot just from seeing how all of this stuff works. I stayed learning how to repair stuff by taking apart the broken things around the house and getting to figure out why they broke. Then moved on to taking apart things that worked, but not quite right and seeing if I could improve it. I'm no where near as good as him, but I can do a lot of basic repairs and even by some "new" things broken and fix them myself just because it's a hell of a lot cheaper.

I will admit, that *was* surprisingly well packed. You'd be surprised (well, maybe *you* wouldn't) at how many people do not adequately pack for shipping, and then act surprised when the merchandise doesn't make it to its destination undamaged.

My predictions for the potential problems for each device based on my experience with them. Game boy colour : Batteries not being held in. That's the only issue mine has had since my dad bought it when it came out. Game boy advance : Never own one but a friend did. Delay from pressing buttons to the action appearing on the screen. Game boy advance SP : Never had any problems. DS Lite : Top screen falling off. Yes. Falling off. The hinges broke very often. DS i : Bad top screen. Or damaged components leading to nothing appearing on the top screen. PSP : Never had one. 2DS : Never wanted to even touch em. DS i XL : Nothing. I upgraded & sold it. New style 2 DS : Never had one. 3DS : Charge port!!! 3 different ones in 2 weeks... 3DS XL : Absolutely nothing. My first & current one is still going. And frankly, it shouldn't be. Being at the bottom of a lake for 20 minutes(I was lucky for it to be found so soon), flying out my hands on the highway, being run over and being knocked out of my hands into cake batter. It realy should not be in perfect condition. But that's why I can't foresee any problems for this one.

My first handheld was the Nintendo DSi XL Mario 25th Anniversary Edition. It had Super Mario symbols and everything on it and it was the coolest thing I had. Sadly it no longer works because one of the power wires disconnected from the connector for some unknown reason. I still have it though. Maybe I'll fix it one day.

I need your help figuring out something about my old ps3 console. Your videos have inspire me to work on my old ps3 fat 180 gig. I thought the problem was just old heat sink paste, I cleaned it and added new paste. but unfortunately it wasn't it. My ps3 turns off a second right after the light turns green, and then flashes 2 times in red. I thought I could restored it back to life after watching your videos. They're great inspiration. Idk what else to do, please help me if possible. Just what could be wrong with it.
