I bought 4 "refurbished" game consoles from Temu so I can see what the condition is on the outside and then open them up for a thorough inspection of the inside. Hopefully we can see what is so "refurbished" about them. The four consoles are a Switch Lite, a PS5, a Switch OLED, and a Nintendo 64. | TronicsFix

Ever been ripped off buying a “fixable” console? I was thinking back to some of the worst times that’s happened to me and this one from early 2024 really stands out. From the moment I opened the box things were not looking good. The box wasn’t sealed properly, the bag of screws was wide open, and there was zero padding protecting the console. By the time it arrived, quite a few components had also been knocked off the board. It was a mess but I was determined to at least try to get it working ag

This repair sparked a bit of controversy when I first posted it… Did I really fix it - or does it not count? You be the judge. I bought this Special Edition God of War PSP from a seller who claimed he "didn't have time to fix it" after he broke it "replacing the battery." When powered on, the PSP had no display at all. So in this video we dig in, diagnose the issue, and see if this rare handheld can be brought back to life. | TronicsFix

I found this old repair video in my archives. Videos like this always end up being a bit divisive: Did I actually repair it? Or did I just replace stuff? I bought this Taco Bell Limited Edition Xbox One X for $168 (plus shipping) on eBay in 2022. According to the seller, it had a power on/off issue. The Xbox was clearly opened before and seemed like it was having an overheating issue when I tried to start it up. But it needed a lot more work than just the perfect amount of thermal paste! | Troni

I paid $650 for this box of customer returned electronics listed as "salvage." They could all be broken, some might not be what was advertised, hopefully some are pretty easy fixes. It's a fun collection of controllers and game consoles to take apart and see if I can get working.

I paid $350 for this broken Steam Deck. The seller said they dropped it and broke the screen, but then they replaced it and it worked for a while and then stopped working. Hopefully I'll be able to figure out what is wrong and get it working again. | TronicsFix

This video is from the 2nd Steam Deck I tried to fix - when they were still pretty new and finding parts was difficult. Still a fun project though. The seller said he tried to replace the SSD and ended up breaking off the speaker connector. I was hoping to be able to just replace the speaker connector but, like I said above, back in early 2023 those were difficult to buy so I had to get creative with this fix.

This is just my opinion and I don't have a way to positively confirm sales numbers, but the gaming industry appears to be making BILLIONS of dollars selling replacement controllers because they are intentionally using inferior parts that wear out, sometimes in a matter of months.

This video from early 2024 reminds me how much I love working on retro gaming systems. And that I definitely need to do more of them. This Nintendo Donkey Kong Junior tabletop arcade is such a cool piece of gaming history. Repairs like this are so much fun because older systems are so much different than modern consoles and it's so satisfying to get them fully working again. | TronicsFix

I filmed this in early 2023 and guess what!? My NES is still working well almost 3 years later! The original issue was that when I tried to play a game, all I would get is a blinking red light and nothing on the screen. I fixed it by taking the console apart and cleaning the 72-pin connector but, of course, I found other things to work on as well.

So this one didn't go as planned. I was excited to find a "broken" Switch 2 at a second-hand store but it wasn't what I expected. Luckily I had another broken Switch 2 that I bought off eBay that had a bit more wrong with it: a broken thumb stick and a non-functional SD card reader. | TronicsFix

Today I'm walking you through how to safely clean your Nintendo Switch 2 in 3 stages: from a quick surface clean to a full deep clean. (Yes, we’re even replacing the thermal paste.) It's surpising how quickly the dust and gunk builds up. So honestly, how close are you to needing to clean your Switch 2?
