Hi! Thanks to https://www.pcbway.com for sponsoring this video.

A kind donation brought this Sega Game Gear into the Basement.

Unfortunately it arrived with a few issues. First of all we need to deal with the capacitor problem that plagues all of these old Game Gears. Once that is out of the way we can tackle the next common problem, the screen!

We use a BennVenn IPS LCD screen kit in this build, and it gives much better results over the stock LCD screen.

Please note, this video is for entertainment purposes only. Don't try any of this yourself.

Thanks for watching. If you would like to support this channel please 'like' and leave a comment. If you are feeling especially generous you can also share the video. But you don't have to, I'm not your mum.
