Out of the 49 (soon to be 50!) systems I offer services for, N64 will always be one of my favorites. Not just because I love the console itself but because these things are like tanks, incredibly reliable and well-built while also being super easy to disassemble and work on.

The GameCube continues to be a very popular console for service here at JRG, and up next is another DOL-001 with an attached GameBoy player for a full refurbishment! Full Service Cleaning was selected so immediately after unboxing all shell and plastic parts were fully taken apart including the 2

Had this customers XBOX planned for quite some time, back when MakeMHZ was taking preorders on the latest batch/revision of the Stellar modchip and HD+ bundle. In this case, the customer asked if I would preorder and have the kits shipped to me and then pay for exact kit cost,

I’ve worked on my fair share of Marty’s at this point and almost all of them have the same issues and failure points. PSU’s always need to be recapped. C22 is always leaking (question is how much damage is done), the CDROM tray switch is always broken, etc. This one

Talk about a console I don’t see very often! Last CDI I worked on was a 220 (which is an absolute behemoth) for similar work, aka a recap, timekeeper and RGB mod. The cool thing about the 450 variants is with the BT encoder you can use a premade RGB

Had a few consoles arrive from Mexico for some much-needed repair, first up (and much easier of the two) was this Virtual Boy! Customer mentioned no image in either eye which is super common problem, though I would find out it couldn’t be fully repaired later on sadly… Job began

A little over a year ago I had a customer bring up the subject of the Casio Loopy and they ended up sending in an even rarer 32X-style attachment called the magical shop for a recap, cleaning and retrobright. Along with it was a spare Loopy I wanted to use

I’ve installed dozens and dozens of NESRGB kits but until now hadn’t seen a V5 kit before, so jumped at the chance to install one and see the updates/changes. TBH, left mostly underwhelmed. The menu is a bit too basic and I’ve heard reports of compatibility issues with some cables

In between a few more extensive service requests came this one to simply refurbish but leave stock a GPM-02 SNES. Customer confirmed the machine was fully operational which I vetted with my SNES burn-in test cart, but its a good thing they sent this in when they did as several

Had a customer reach out wanting a completely decked out GameCube and asked about GCloader and BlueRetro services (which I dont have listed). Since the GameCube was going to be completely apart for all other work, I dont charge for swapping out boards or simple installs like plug and play

Had a customer reach out inquiring if they could have 2 Atari Lynx (both model 1) upgraded with a BennVenn screen and recapped and power circuit refresh done I charge double for Lynx 1 as its not plug and play like the model 2 (which still requires careful assembly and
