Hello again! I was wondering if anyone had any experience taking apart the battery compartment for a wonderswan color. I recently got one that had corrosion and I would like to clean the contacts. I could probably get it working without a deep cleaning but it'll look trashy :^/

So just in case anyone is wondering about this, you're actually able to just pull the plastic tabs up. It's tight, but just alternating sides will work. There aren't any actually clips on it. Here's a picture.

I own myself three Wonderswan :) The best way to clean any rust on metal parts is to let them sink in vinegar, and then scrub them with a toothbrush. As for any plastic parts, I simply use water and soap. You might have found an answer by yourself by the time I'm writing this ^_^
