      Still seems like a great deal imo for $50 you get used ones with flaws and markings. This one looks at least refurbished with a free shell included and installed. I wouldn’t care if it’s a fake shell when everyone uses 3rd party cases for electronics anyways. I’m actually impressed and might buy one for the nostalgia lol

    I work as a hardware and software developer in some noname company, and the thing about wireless controllers is that it might sounds counterintuitive but in nowdays they are cheaper to produce than wired controllers.
    When you want wired connection, you need to put in your board some kind of uart485 like max422 chip and add there come of other components to that like reisistors and condensators and it adds up in price.
    While wireless you have lot of times for free in microcontroller those days, and even if you don't you just put some traces on pcb which serves and antenna, some cheap PWM demod (like single resistor and condensator) and you're good to go.
    And now durring semiconductor crisis it's even more pronounce as stm32 microcontrollers prices skyroketed and esp32 stayed cheep, and with esp32 you always have bluetoorh/wifi, you don't have to do anything to have a wireless connection.

    Like 12 years ago I found a naruto DS game that was made in Japan at best buy. It was a few games ahead of the US & they didn’t mean to even receive it nor could they sell it, one of the employees told me to just put it in my jacket pocket and leave with it. I already knew Nintendo wii was regional locked so I didn’t know if it would work but it turns out it did and so I was able to play a naruto game with a bunch of characters I didn’t even know yet in full Japanese. I was so happy then.

    The speakers and sound on most of those consoles could be adjusted with time and patiences with resistors. Usually it's not the speaker itself. It's Usually the low income sounds (Bass) are coming in too high. Sometimes adjusting the highs sounds (treble) a little bit lower and completely lowering down the lows. Could most likely adjust and fix the sound. Companies don't do that because it cost a little more money. So they go the cheap way just to cut the cost.

    The chicken one, the text is not caused by dead pixels in the LCD but missing data in the actual text, as the game mario has no dead pixels.
    The bottom left corner the flickering floor is actually part of the ROM from the original and also occurs there :)

    7:38 I have bought consoles like this in the past myself. Sometimes they put the screen in wrong. That is they cut the sheet for the material and put it in the wrong way at 90 degrees. You can tell because the image appears as if there are 2-overlaying.
    Rotate the device 90 degrees and you will see the screen is a whole lot better. And no there is no way to ensure you don't get this except by ordering from a site that guarantees returns on faulty products.

      "it's chinese so it must be bad!" is quite literally the mindset for it. Also aliexpress is the site dropshippers often use like wish and such. All market sites like that have scams, there's millions on amazon for example. And just like amazon on the flip side, aliexpress has millions of legit sellers and products.
