Restoring A Junk Nintendo Game Boy Pocket
Restoring A Junk Nintendo Game Boy Pocket
I bought this Game Boy from Japan. It was quite dirty and slightly yellowed. The seller said that the screen does not work so he was selling the Game Boy "for parts". To my surprise the screen did work but it turned out that the screen burn was also on the back polarizing film. I disassembled the Game Boy and cleaned every part, the case was retro-lighted using Hydrogen Peroxide 12% and UV-light, which worked like a charm. Since the back polarizing filter was also burnt, I decided to replace the entire screen. I also changed the screen lens to a glass lens which is more scratch-resistant.
I hope that you enjoy the video.
