I recently got a hold of a game.com. Physically it appears to be in solid shape but I can't get any power to it. I've tried both fresh batteries and an AC adapter with precise voltage (3V 200Ma) but no dice either way.

The only surface thing I haven't done yet is replace the backup battery, a standard CR2032, but I fail to see how this could make a difference.

So does anyone have some insights on how one might get this system humming again? Thanks.

Replaced the backup battery, put in fresh AA's and held down the reset switch for two seconds. Voila*! And there was life.

Honestly I'm not sure if I did anything here, but it's a place to strart if anyone else runs into a similar issue.

"Voila!" - French for "Ta-da!"
