Thanks Roli! Means a lot, as I enjoy your videos 🙂
So do you have one of these as well then? Very cool! Yeah I like the ‘clip thing’ a lot. I’ve also seen a card kind of thing that stands up underneath the VB, but I think I prefer this clip design.
I really like the sounds of this =D I think it would be great to celebrate the VB’s big 20 with anything people have listed here.
While I’m not exactly a talented guy, I could do some video reviews/overviews (almost done my Japanese VB Kiosk overview). I could also rip some music from some games from my VB, once I look into which games we need rips from. Heck, I can also try my hand at making a VB music remix using rytmic retrobits on my DS =P
I guess they found a couple more in a corner somewhere =P
I pulled the trigger..$35 shipped for this is too good to pass up. Hope they pull through. If not I’m petty sure it falls under Paypal’s buyer protection thing.
If that looks way over your head, it may be better to pay someone to fix it for you. Unfortunately I don’t know who does this, but I’m sure it can’t be too hard to find someone.
Well at least the console works then. When you turn on the console can you hear a kind of hum sound? You might have to put your ear right up to it, or maybe just keep your hand on the console, as you should also feel a very slight vibration. If it’s doing that, then the displays mechanical bits are functioning. If that’s the case it could possibly be the connection to the actual LED’s got lost entirely. I suppose this would be visually apparent ie. the ribbon cables could have come off entirely. I guess all you can do is take the unit apart and visually inspect it. If nothing looks wrong to you, maybe try taking some pictures of the display parts and post them here.
Is there sound? If you try what bigmak says and it still doesn’t work, try pressing the A button a few times to get the game going, and see if there’s sound. The oven ‘fix’ won’t do squat if the actual console isn’t turning on.
Interesting..both those are from the same seller and use the EXACT same pictures. It also looks like it includes a couple of the pieces for the Japanese Kiosk (the controller stand and the game pack lock). Good price though.
