This one cartridge is my nemesis. The other five I have here are pretty reliable now after contact cleaning, but this one still needs a couple of inserts and removals to get a good load.
I have even gone as far as reflowing it this morning, and it's *better* but still not good enough for me.
I think the issue is that it copped some extreme heat given discolouration on the case that the others don't have and the PCB is very slightly warped now, just enough that combined with the age of the slot on the GB itself that it's always on the edge of failure.
God help me I've done some restoration on a Game Boy for the first time and now I'm looking for more broken ones.
They're pretty pricey though, considering how many must have gone out there into the world.
Looks like the Game Boy Pocket is the most unloved version, so I might get one to play with. 
Oh shit just got a notification from Auspost that my vacuum cleaner is coming today!
Parking this bus at the end of my street is a hate crime.
Have you ever been so taken with a really dumb idea for a joke that you'll spend twenty years on and off putting things together until it finally becomes a real object in your hand?
Yeah ... me neither. Who's got that kind of time?
