    BTW - does anyone have a link showing how to add s-video to a Genesis?

    I wanted to give a shout-out to Luke from Console5.com who has given some very in-depth write-ups on console repairs. His website has a ton of spec sheets and general information if you are troubleshooting something or replacing something.

    heres a page written by myself which will tell you which region snes controllers work on which region consoles, and how to modify a controller to be 'universal' so as to work on any region console.

    Shameless plug, but I do have parts for old non-PC computers (Apple, Atari, TRS-80, TI, Commodore, and more) and older game consoles (Gen 1 Genesis and older)...

    http://www.arcadecomponents.com

    My repair logs are kept here:
    http://newlifegames.net/nlg/index.php?board=19.0

    I hope they help you keep your systems running for years to come!

    If it's not proper to post, feel free to flame me in a PM.

    Included in that treasure trove are a guide to currently available batteries with all their specs, as well as massive cross-reference listings for different manufacturers.

    Tried several of the links in this topic and none worked, the links are too old. A reference section serves no use if the links don't work! lol

    here is a valid list of repair shops if you are looking for someone to help you fix your games, consoles, and controllers.
    Nintendo Sega Etc Repair Shops

    doing it yourself requires some videos or tutorials and this tool kit:
    Gamebit Professional Kit with 3.8mm and 4.5mm game bit and other stuff you'll need

    Default 5200 Joystick Repair Guides

    Here are two guides I wrote sometime back for a nice cheap and fairly easy repair for those pesky 5200 controllers.

    Here is the non-flash/BW step-by-step guide

    http://members.cox.net/crossbow777/g...gd/5200_rep_gd


    And here is a simplied version of that same guide as a Flash presentation...

    Enjoy...

    TurboDuo laser replacement... I just did this repair today, and it worked beautifully! The process is easy, but the guide is useful because it tells you exactly what part you need and where to find it.

    I found this today and thought it would really help, as it did for me.

    If you're having trouble with the shoulder buttons on a DS, before you bring it in for repairs or take it apart, try blowing hardly, or using compressed air, right at the separation between the case and the button. My R button hasn't worked for months, but this fixed it in about 15 seconds.
