GBA SP only playing Game Boy OR GBA games? Here's one fix...

Third video is out - in this episode I will demonstrate a potential issue with the Game Boy Advance SP playing only Game Boy or Gameboy Advance games but not both. The component responsible for this can be found right next to the cartridge slot and depending on the type of cartridge you are using (GB, GBC or GBA) - its tab has a relative position. The position of the tab determines power delivery to the crucial components that allow you to play your games.

The motherboard I will be working on does not have this issue, but we will emulate how it may look like for those who's console suffers from this issue. And I may desolder the component for no good reason.... Watch the video until the end before performing this fix.

This video is part of "Chapter 1" where I will go through my repair, refurbish and have fun journey.

As this is my third time filming myself, I welcome all your feedback! I will try to post as often as possible although I expect that first weeks will have a chaotic schedule!

This video is for entertainment and educational purposes.
