Seeking Repairs for My Original GameBoy – Any Suggestions? (lemm.ee)

Hey there,

I recently found my old Original GameBoy, and it's definitely showing its age. I'm in search of a place or person who can help me bring it back to life.

Specifically, I'm looking for recommendations for repairing the classic Original GameBoy. If you know of any trustworthy repair shops or individuals who specialize in these, please share your insights.

If you've had a good experience with a repair service or have some tips to offer, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance, folks!

edit: it has corroded battery terminals, and I live in south-eastern Virginia

I totally agree. I repaired and upgraded my GBA SP and it was such an incredible learning experience. Also confidence boosting.
