Fixing my Virtual Boy
Fixing my Virtual Boy
I just got my second Virtual Boy for only $5.00 with Mario Clash!! The only problem is the vision in the left lense gets messed up. Shaking the Virtual Boy slightly fixes the problem temporarily but after a while the vision in the left lense gets scribbled again. Sounds like something is loose and maybe easily fixable, but is there a tool that can get those fucking screws off? I've been thinking about dremeling a flat headed screwdriver, but is there tool I can just buy instead of dremeling? Any suggestions on how to fix the problem or open the VB would be much appreciated thanks.

Take a biro
Remove ink cartridge
Heat tip
Place onto screw for a few seconds.
Remove and run under cold tap for a few seconds
You now have a gamebit for next to nothing.
You may have to repeat the above procedure a few times as the plastic will wear out fast but it won't take long.
