Ok so it's actually 30 consoles 😂 I didn't realize there was a white DS lite until part way through the video. 29 sounds more interesting... anyways, I bought 29/30 "broken" Nintendo consoles from Goodwill. And I actually got a pretty solid deal. It was a bit less than $300 for the whole lot, which comes out to ~$10 per console. I can easily make my money back if I get some of these consoles working. We've got a little bit of everything here... 5 Wiis, 6 GBA SPs, 6 DS Lites, 1 DSi, 1 GBC, 1 GBA, 1 2DS XL, 4 DMG Gameboys, 2 Super Nintendos, and 3 GameCubes. Check out the video to see exactly what I got!
Any consoles here that I get cleaned up and working will be for sale on my website: www.jrobgaming.com

If I had to take a guess on the blue SP and why it was so sticky, it looks like it had one of those overlay stickers on it. You've probably seen them before, cheap stickers people use to wrap consoles with so they look "cool" like I know a friend that has a Wii but he bought some like Bakugon sticker set for it that fits the top and sides of the console. I'm guessing it had that and someone took it off, you can kinda tell by the way there's a perfect square where there's no residue around the speaker.

I recently bought a new Nintendo 3ds xL and it’s pre owned but I plan to keep it in shiny condition by cleaning it every other day of the week.

Could explain why it’s grimy either that or being stored away for so long and dirt/dust got gathered on them? 😅

@rachelcookie321 Год назад

I assume they were likely used by young kids. Nintendo consoles are aimed at families so there are often lots of very young kids using them. I had a DS when I was like 5 years old and I was the type of kid who was very careful so mine was well taken care of but most little kids don’t really understand being careful with that sort of thing. I really want to go find my old DS now. I don’t know where it is but it’s probably somewhere in the attic. I would be surprised if there was any scratches or anything on it, I kept that thing in a case 24/7.

I'm sure you're aware, or others have commented, but you can easily adjust/turn up the laser power on the Gamecubes slightly using a screw on the inside of the console, and that usually solves the disc reading issue!

@FreightmareFTW Год назад

Pick up your cross and follow Jesus! The world is quickly headed for destruction, and sooner or later you will have to sit at the judgement seat and give an account for your actions. Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life! - Revelation 3:20. Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God tho. Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc and you should get a response. Have a blessed day!

for the disc read errors you can try to adjust the resistance being sent to the Lazer. there is a small screw on the disc board that can be adjusted very minimally. using an Ohm meter. the result should be around 200to230 ohms I believe. check RU-vid for others that have fixed this issue.

@Ski-DooSafari 2 года назад

Some tips for the GameBoys (Might help, might not) For any if the GB, GBC or GBAs that won't turn on, cleaning the power switch is really all it takes. I reccomend replacing the volume and contrast wheels in the GBs as in my DMG the contrast wheel tends to flicker the contrast depending on where it is. Not a huge problem if you don't but it can help sometimes. If you buy a shell repacement for the GBC you're gonna' want to make sure you can get a D-Pad riser, as most aftermarket D-Pads are typically the wrong height (I learned that the hard way lol). I believe RetroModding has good replacement parts.

@jrob0021 2 года назад

Agreed, the difference is stark when you see them side by side

@joemck85 2 года назад

Your 001 does have a couple advantages though: Pixel response time is much better than on a 101, so games can get faster before you get lost in the motion blur. And, it's more of a question of preference, but the 001 has the same somewhat washed out colors of the original GBA, and that's what the games' colors were designed to be shown on, so some games look oversaturated on a 101 -- but of course that might be a plus depending what you like.

@joemck85 2 года назад

GBC & GBA often have that problem with their power switches. It either doesn't work at all, only when in the right position, or makes the power light go red or cut out randomly. The problem is corrosion in the power switch, probably from being carried in a pocket and getting sweat in there over time. The fix is to take it apart, put a couple drops of isopropyl rubbing alcohol inside the metal-and-plastic slide switch mechanism for the power switch, and then push the slider part back and forth a zillion times. The same applies to crackly / cranky volume dials and sliders. The same MAY apply to the DMGs, but in my experience those don't get cranky nearly as often as the newer models that used smaller switches. AGS-001 vs 101 is very easy to tell without turning them on or looking at the sticker: 001 screen looks light like a GBC or GBA screen when off. 101 screen looks black like a modern LCD when off. Also the screens from some of the poor-condition DS Lites could probably go into the better condition ones with bad screens. The "lots of gunk" SP may prove to be in the best condition -- SP shells ALWAYS get TONS of scratches on the lid. The gunk means there was probably a skinb covering it for years. At least if someone put it there to decorate and not to cover scrapes, that skin will have protected it! I'd take it all the way apart and use a gentle gunk remover like Goo-Gone on the shell. DMG situation seems simple enough: Assuming the 2 that don't worn aren't fixed with a little cleaning, pull the screen lenses off them and stick them on the 2 that work but don't have a screen lens.

On the Gamecubes if the cd drives are bad, mod them with the GC Loader SD replacement.

SPs can get you a huge turnaround if you can get them for the rite prices mostly if you put different cases also gameboy colors giving them a back screen and a rechargeable battery people look for those

@anthonyradmer9676 9 месяцев назад

i swear that blue one has to be my old one. when i was a kid i dropped it open and that exact part of the hinge popped off and the screen was loose like that.

@Hammerjockeyrepair Год назад

that blue sp had a decal covering the whole thing and thats the leftover glue

@salgonzalez908 Год назад

There is mods where people actually remove” the top portion of the ds, and you are left with a GBA player, I think they even sell shell” that delete the whole top portion

The sp you said was sticky looked like it had like a sticker decal on it cause if you notice the black adhesve was like like squared up and not like spilled or splashed

Those GameCube are a come up super easy to fix. Just have to adjust the laser on the board.

@tylertibbs158 2 года назад

what you gotta do is mix and match parts, so you have working stuff and you just have one or 2 beat up ones and you fix those lol

@robert1975031 2 года назад

good score man, though it does sound like you are going to have fun with shell replacements. you probably will have better luck than I did with the ds lites, I tried replacing the shell on one I had and basically destroyed the thing as murphy's law took effect. luckily I was given another eventually that was in better shape. but yeah I am just going to stick to the older gameboys for now when it comes to redoing cases.

Try to swap a "Wii" shell... Good luck with that 😂 first time it took me like 5 hours... So many different and hidden screws.. Now I can do it in 30minutes

You can always mod these consoles and sell. I do not know how much they would sell but it would be a nice project!

@chloebaloneyxx Год назад

one of the gameboys had vertical lines missing on the screen to the left and right, you can fix that by using a soldering iron on a black piece under the screen, just look it up its not a very hard fix

@stonesword1844 2 года назад

whenever I see videos like these it makes me want to get into the hobby but then I remember I wrecked my joy con trying to change the shell and probably shouldn't be trying it on multiple hundred dollar consoles

@jrob0021 2 года назад

You could practice on cheaper stuff. But yeah, it definitely takes some guts to open these things up and risk it all when trying to fix stuff (some stuff is pretty easy, but it can definitely get pretty difficult)

My first Nintendo game was the original GameBoy. I owned all of the GameBoys (including the Pocket, Color, Advance, Advance SP, and Micro). I also owned every DS model. I’m actually looking for a DS or Micro that plays GBA games. I still own 2 3DSXLs and a 2DSXL. I also had a Wii and GameCube which I miss both.

i remember back in 2009 or so around that time, i was so desperate for any entertainment, i only played Nintendo Gameboy for a long time. i was always bored in my room and had nothing to do and my parents were pretty poor and it was the only entertainment i had and one of the best. couple of years later i remember that i was able to afford my own consoles and a powerful PC. i look back at it fondly now

@SoCalCoasters Год назад

next time can you show testing the home consoles I would love to see that.

@mrsnayarlhats4242 Год назад

Well the one with the scratches and cracks I would replace apart of the shell and the wiis with the missing Gameboy cargrage doors I would get some with different color doors like the red one with a black door it would look so cool with that

It is hard now to get good computer/video game hardware in Goodwill now...I was lucky last year to get an indigo GameCube with the digital port and with an orange spice controller in store for $20....I already have a Wii and gamecube..but a GameCube in great shape with the digital port is pretty sweet.
