Interesting collection of stuff

Yesterday someone I know brought me a big box of stuff. Most of it are test cartridges for the Game Boy, Game Boy Advance and DS.

The stuff comes from a place that used to repair handhelds for Nintendo. I wonder if there's anything useful we can do with this.

Oh, before I forget, here's some pictures. I love how the black/yellow GBA cartridges look.

Dump them all. I have the means to dump the GBA carts, don't have the means to dump the GB carts though, but I might be able to figure something out.
Also, show some pictures of that Game Boy Micro, I love that color. If it's in good condition (especially the faceplate) it's worth quite a bit.

That's actually a GBA card. It's nothing more than an LCD Test, cycling through a solid black, white, red, green and blue picture. There's a DIP switch on the board just outside the cartridge, unfortunatly the label is ripped so I can not read what these dip switch settings do. It has two 32Mbit flash chips soldered on to the board so I guess these switches should somehow allow switching between 8, 16, 32 and 64mbit mode. But so far I have only been able to set it to 8, 16 and 32Mbit, however, nothing changed. It would still only be the 5 solid backgrounds.

Is any of this stuff for sale, specifically the GBA aging cartridges? Or just any other info on how to obtain one?

Stadlbauer was the general Importeur for Nintendo Devices in Europe in the 80´s until 2014.Also the only offiical Service Partner.All Warranty Repairs had to be done there
And they were in Austria.....

And after they canceled the contract in 2014, things like that should have been "left behind" there.:D
