Hello.
I recently acquired a used Light Boy for the original Gameboy.
It looked fine on the outside, but would not turn on.
Now, this is the first Light Boy I have seen IRL, but I noticed a loud and clear springy noise while flipping the power switch. It sounds either really cheap, or faulty.
Are there any weak spots one might want to start to check in hopes of blowing new life into it? Also think I read somewhere it could be tricky to open the Light Boy.
I remember reading some other hardware thread where the user was pointed in the direction of a more hardware/modification oriented forum. But I can't remember what thread it was.
