The replaced motherboard does not affect the value, if the original motherboard is kept, and is sold along with the repaired unit.

Is that the same as Washington axe? Incase you you never heard the question if you had washingtons axe and replaced the handle or top is it still Washington axe?

@Michael_800 3 года назад

The allure of these gameboys for me is, that they are a product of their time. When swapping the internals, it isn't the one from back then anymore. Obviously there are levels to how authentic it needs to be. Changing the polarizing foil is fine, swapping the motherboard with one from another ANA would probably also be ok. Sure, the only thing custom is the front plate, but we don't collect front plates, but game boys, so the rest must have some significance as well, right?

@Michael_800 3 года назад

@James Schappert What if all the ANA boards have a specific serial number on it? Like an A at the front or whatever. Would that change things for you?

@@ionstorm66 the way it was explained to me was that the NES and the Game Boy were so ubiquitous in Japanese society that they were basically seen as "default" devices everyone had (like how today we assume everyone has a phone, laptop/computer, microwave, etc). So it was seen as something everyone would use and it was more fun than doing their own version of a camera or something.

What I do, which seems to work very well, is I will use a q-tip soaked with IPA and rub it onto the contacts of a random gameboy game (nothing super important) and will repeatedly insert it into the slot. It tends to clean up both the slot and the cartridge itself pretty well. Makes games that won’t read work just fine. This also works with Nintendo DS games

Personally the only time I'd have an issue with replacing original parts in a rare Gameboy, is if you were intending to flip it and were dishonest during sale, eg. "Perfect, all original parts" etc. But when it's for your own collection, its nice to have it working rather than in poor condition or dead MB, screen and so on.
