This guy is like the Bob Ross of gameboy
Alcohol removes hot glue like nobodys business
I can imagine that they just use broken game boys and put them in nice display cases just to earn some money back on the ones that were broken and got returned
I would have rather kept it in the shadow box lol
A way to get a new/used Game boy, in today's age.
This was definitely worth every second of watching 👍💯 and I have now subscribed.
You definitely voided the warranty on that shadow box
Next time you have to remove hot glue just use IPA.
watching this gives me anxiety
it's so bizarre yet cool that these little shadowboxes meant for showcasing the components are actually functional! I really didn't expect the Gameboy to have it's software on it, but it does which is super cool!
well, you destroyed it by removing it from the frame, fair to say it's not a working gameboy lol.
whoever built that frame is a moron.
"To clean the power switch, um, I like to do is MEOW get a scalpel…"
LOL I LOVE CATS
You’re a Man
That thumbnail scared the hell out of me…. I was like "It opens from the back" 🙀
Am I the only 1 still curious what was going on with the speaker.
what a waste of a system… I hope this isn’t a popular trend to take apart thing that are no longer produced and glue the parts to boards 🤦♂️
That cat in the background made me laugh
the fuck is the point of this
23:12 Can you still make a game that asks that question these days without triggering somebody?
This video should be titled "the most expensive way to buy a gameboy"
I actually want to make one of these shadow boxes with a switch in it but need to buy a few damaged switches first
The system that was never intended to be played was made with defective parts. Makes sense.
I can't believe the speaker started working after u put it together that was crazy
Dude seriously don’t have anything better than a round screwdriver to pry. This is so cringe use a spatula or even a flathead.
It mean to be on wall… They use glue because it is easier and stronger prevent parts Fallin apart while shipping.
As someone who has no idea what they're talking about – couldn't you just wick the solder on the caps?
Way to destroy it
Dude spent like $400 on a fucking heavily used gameboy color lmao
So you can, but it's alot of work
Really gotta upgrade that soldering iron bro.
Couldn’t get past the first 30 seconds. Was like eating cardboard while watching paint dry
this was such a good video. thanks bud
I don't think they do. since a working good condition one would prob be worth more sold as is.
here's a crazy idea. why not wire the Gameboy up so it can work when in the frame? have a small daughter board outside the frame you can use as a controller. so you can play games on your art!
good video, but you're far too quiet.
Gameboy color, building kit, lmao
This is why YouTube exists
Yes let's just open up history.
Dudes just stabbing away at the battery
That is louder than my DS.
Please show the cat. I feel like after hearing him/her meow for 30 mins it's only fair – lol.
This was a painful video to watch.
I wanted a game boy brick again being I am the first generation who had one when you all were just a sparkle in your daddies eye. Then I came to my senses. 👀 It sucked !!!! SEGA NOMAD and Turbo grafx 16 portable and Atari Lynx we're the best.
In the thumb nail you smashed the frame. I hate clickbait 😡
I got jelly when my brother got this as a birthday gift. I didn’t even get one but for Christmas I got the game boy color and bought the game off my brother with some allowance money
clickbait
wow, i never knew lego would release a gameboy set that works! Its awesome
acetone would have made taking it out of the box a lot easier without damaging the parts
I'm a Boy!!!
