This is a customizable order form for the WonderSwan models and the various services offered. Please note that all costs listed are for service only, requiring you to ship not only the console but the mod/upgrade parts you have purchased yourself (with exception to the Full Recap Service as I will provide new capacitors from Console5)
HiSpeedIDO Backlit IPS LCD Install
Give your wonderswan a serious visual upgrade with these IPS screens made by HiSpeedIDO. These are properly integer scaled modern LCD screens that are backlit and provide a much more pleasant viewing experience. No shell cuts or modifications are necessary which is great for those that dont like permanently altering hardware, these are completely reversible. Only downside is a much shorter battery life so please do you research before committing and be sure you are ok with that. My experiences is only a few hours on the single AA battery compared to the very long life of the OEM screens. If you are going to be doing the IPS upgrade, its also a good time to put on a new clean cleans, which can be found at the same sites. Not required obviously but will help really show off that fancy new screen! Below are the links to buy the kits for the 3 different models:

Full Recap Service
Electrolytic Capacitors have an estimated shelf life of about 15 years and many of these old retro gaming systems are long past that time. Prevent unwanted power, video or audio issues by proactively replacing these in your WonderSwan system. If your WonderSwan is already exhibiting issues a failed capacitor could be the culprit and is usually a good first step in the diagnosis and repair. All capacitors will be replaced on the system motherboard with a cap kit from Console5 which I will provide for this service, included in the cost
Full Service Cleaning
After years of heavy use many handhelds will exhibit accumulation of dirt, dust and debris and this can not only impact the aesthetic appearance of the system but dirty system components can impact component life and performance. Your console will be completely disassembled and cleaned from the inside out. All PCB and internal electrical components will have dust and debris removed via an electronic air compressor and then be cleaned with 99% isopropyl alcohol and brushed clean. Outer shell and other non-electronic components will be taken apart and soaked in a soap/water mixture and carefully scrubbed to remove stains and debris buildup. Any light markings, scuffs or other blemishes will be safely removed to the best of my ability. Once the console is re-assembled the outer shell will be given a coat of plastic UV protectant to restore shine and prevent UV damage. Depending on the handheld system I will do my best to buff out light scratches on the screen/panel as well
