DETAILS OF PROBLEM:


-The upperscreen will ONLY work if I push the upperscreen as far the DS can handle with the L-button pushed hard in. IF i let go of the screen and/or let go of the L-button the problem returns.(as shown in the vid)

-The upperscreen is'nt functioning good anymore, you'll see just a blank screen but you can see the animations on it so you can see things on it.

-You can still see the vid/animation on the upperscreen.

Please help me my fellow GBA-temp mates!

fixing the top screen can be a bit hard because it involves desoldering the speakers and then soldering them back onto the new screen.

If you have experience in that field it will make it a lot easier, i however did not have any experiece what so ever in soldering things and i was able to fix several top screens without drama.

I do have little experience in soldering since I have to do a project on that in college. First make sure when de-soldering that you let the heat do its thing, wiggle the speakers out of place little by little so it can become more loose. Just make sure you don't 'PULL' on the speakers because its attach to a wire and pulling on it can cause one of them not to work at all. When soldering back you want to be as careful as possible since the lead can quickly solidified when unheated for a short period of time. Also get your dad or neighbor with tools to help you out, they should know what they are doing. Last option, send it back to Nintendo.

    @K3Nv2 Snow Day is pretty fun. My only bitch would be the camera controls, when you move around, say down, you have to move the right stick left or right to get camera to turn and get your view, other than that I like it so far.

    From what people say pvp isn't even worth it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

    I bet most people at the time still watched it in black and white
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Many of them did before colour television was common.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, take into consideration how economy was back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why they listed inflation rates
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Sorry didnt read that part
