This ColecoVision cartridge was in my house fire… 🔥

The case melted into a plastic blob… but the board inside survived.

So what was it?

Full teardown:

A friend's N64 wouldn't power on reliably. Full service: board + PSU recap, fault traced to tired joints at the PSU power connector. Controller overhaul, fresh joystick lube. Tested with Mario 64.

Welp, the new power board is in, & the old girl is reassembled.

I had to improvise a bit with the cable from the Power button, but I think it's all good. 😅😅😅

Now, we see...

I like posts on r/consolerepair that are like "I accidentally knocked this component off the board, is it important?" no bro, most of the things on a pcb are just stuck on there for fun and don't do anything

Gray screen, no game booted. The culprit on this AV Famicom? A badly oxidised cartridge slot. A slot clean got it booting games again; the recap, new 7805 and deep clean were all preventative.

A friend's Xbox 360 wouldn't read discs (~99% fail). Boiled the warped belt (unrelated to failure), cleaned the lens, but only Crysis 3 loaded, so the laser was dying. New pickup and fresh paste, now it reads anything. hitmanmcc.com/entry/a-frie... #Xbox360 #ConsoleRepair #RetroGaming

The laser on a friend's Microsoft Xbox 360 needed replacing; without a new one it would refuse to read games 99% of the time.

N64 Rumble Pak, dead from leaking AAA batteries that ate the traces. Bridged the breaks with blue Kynar jumpers, then did the iFixit power mod so it runs off the controller, no batteries left to leak. hitmanmcc.com/entry/n64-ru...

To whomever is wondering what happens if you put your gaming laptop in a bag, in a hot car, in the sun and forget to turn it off...... this should be the expected results.

This black PAL GameCube's disc read error wasn't the laser, it was the optical-drive caps. Recapped the drive, bridged a snapped lid switch, fitted a PicoBoot chip, and it reads discs again.
