Looks like you blew all the gold off the contacts with the brasso. Might be a quick fix now but it will corrode fairly quickly. You should really q-tip with IPA before you start removing material.
I always prefer to use a pink pencil eraser to chemical for cleaning the pins
I could be wrong but those "resistors" appear to actually be capacitors. As others have mentioned try another case because the SP is weird although I suspect its a bad rom chip.
Did you happen to check if there was a short between power and ground?
One of the IPS screen making company should sponsor you. Either that. Take a sponsor from like timu or eBay and just buy one off of there
I think the broken shell may have been causing the problem with Side Pocket. Gameboy and GBA games require different voltages and there's a little switch inside the GBA cartridge slot that toggles between GBC and GBA modes depending on what type of cartridge is inserted. The missing bottom corner of the rear shell is the part that is needed to engage that switch.
Such a fool i am i should have been buying as many nes carts as i could in 2010 instead of being in school. You could get them 5$ a peice from GameStop and it was 7-10$ for the actually good ones
If only they were all as easy as Ant Bully.
