  • Today I tackle this WonderSwan. It won't power on. Seems to be an issue with the battery connectors.

    Couldn't really tell in the video, but that "resistor" on the battery terminal might be an inductor. They also come in the same packaging type as a resistor, but usually have a green body to them like that does. Inductors also tend to have less bands as well. It being an inductor and not a resistor is my best guess, which is also why the resistance value is very low.

    SwanCrystal was a Wonderswan Color with a far, far, superior LCD that didn't have godawful motion blur and didn't require the light of a thousand suns on it to give a visible display. Basically out of all the Wonderswans, the SwanCrystal is the only one worth having.

    It's great to see you're back! Congrats on fixing the console too. Weird handheld, but I guess that it being obscure might be worth a fair bit in a couple of years.

    Pretty easy repair in the end, well done. From what I've seen the Wonderswan colour is basically the same form factor just with a colour screen, Kelsey Lewin who's often seen on the Metal Jesus Rocks youtube channel (I think she has her own channel now) is a massive fan and importer of all things Wonderswan.

    Love the Wonderswan, such a unique little system. Playing shmups in Tate mode was ahead of its time.

    Glad to see someone else take on the wonderswan! I'll be tackling two more in my next video, because they both have screen burn!

    I love your troubleshooting. Very clear order of operations to find what's wrong. Process of elimination etc. Wish I had more broken stuff to fix now!

    The person icon on the screen indicated which orientation the handheld is to held in. Since some games can be played in portrait mode or landscape. And the left pin like icon is your power indicator like the LED on the game boy.

    Great video as always, brilliant to have you back. Don't know if someone has already mentioned this but I think you may have auto white balance enabled on your camera that keeps changing the colour temperature of your video, keeps going from a nice neutral to over warm when your hands are out of shot, think it's compensating for your blue mat. lol
