      I still prefer the 90’s-ness of the SNES, but this was a damn-fine looking machine.

    I still have mine somewhere but I don’t know if it still works. Sold all modules for it too.

    Battery use on these was crazy too.

    If you didn’t know, you can easily fix the blank line on the screen. If you take the cover plate off and remove the piece of foam right below the display, theres a line of solder across all the rows of pins. If you take a soldering iron and just run it along the solder line and melt it it fixes the connection.

        Ahh darn, it may be possible to drop a bit of new flux on the one spot and solve it. Else the pin is fried, in that case RIPski

      Cant see your answer on my instance because I just restored a backup. Dont really want to try doing that flux thing because I dont want to ruin the display
