Anything and everything about retro and modern console repair.
If you've got a broken gaming console you are trying to fix, come here to talk about it. If you want to flex about a repair, post here. If you or your console's last lover did a non-destructive electronic mod to their console, or have a question about the options available or how to do it, you are welcome to post here.
If you suck at soldering, we still love you, but we might roast you.
If you did an extreme modification such as turning one of the few Nintendo Playstations into a Rubik's Cube, flex elsewhere. If you're trying to FIX a Nintendo Playstation that someone turned into a Rubik's Cube, post away!

Thanks, I didn't because it was in good condition and then it just working after a few seconds and I didn't think there was any sort of detection for that sort of thing on Nintendos side of things, but ig there was since it worked lol thanks!
You're welcome! I'm glad that helped.
It's a pretty common issue, micro corrosion or dirt underneath the domes. But not everyone knows you can peel them up to clean underneath!
I've fixed a few systems like that.
Turns out it wasn't the Dpad. It was the replacement circle pad joystick being dead on the y axis lol that's what I get for going for the cheapest possible lmao
Another replacement joystick later and it works perfect now
Oh wow. Isn't technology amazing!
I'm glad you eventually figured it out.
