I stupidly bought a gen mobile and within the hour that I opened the package I broke it. :eek 2: One of my games was incompatible and I thought maybe it wasn't secure enough so I pushed it in there with some force and it no longer turns on. When I plug the battery pack in it still lights and charges but the led does not turn on when I flip the power switch. I opened it up to see if there was any obvious thing wrong with it but I don't see anything and don't know anything in the technical department. Do you guys have any ideas or maybe what I could possibly salvage some of the parts for? :? Hopefully my retron3 doesn't take a shit in an hour.

Take it back, say it broke.

Other than that, nothing works? It doesn't even load the pre-loaded games?

I had a Genmobile and it never gave me any grief.

Not even the preloaded games come on as the screen doesn't turn on. I remember reading somewhere that someone had the same problem. I noticed some discoloration on the circuit board but it's not even worth me messing with it. At least I got a super cool magnetic box with it.ROFL

Damn man, I would be pissed - I wouldn't be laughing about it, unless you got it dirt cheap or something.
