Hello how are you I am fine thank youHow often should routine maintenance be done on console and handheldsIs there a resource database that tells you all of this for every console? Like when do I maintain my Vectrex and what do I do, but also I need to know about Virtual Boy and Master System and NES and PS1 ectThanks
If your system has never been touched internally then it would be good (if you know how) to replace every capacitor in the system.Then it will last another 20+ years without needing maintenance more than likely.Capacitors are the #1 problem in electronics not working.
>>11107783Ok thank you. How to I find out which capacitors I need and should buy? I never did replaced capacitors before
>>11107803You google that shit NIGGAAlso watch youtube videos.You can also usually find full capacitor kits needed for your system to buy at once like on ebay and stuff
>>11107821Thank you friendo. I didn't find anything for Vectrex but I did found for thing like NES toploader and Game Gear which are good
>>11107851I literally googled "vectrex capacitor kit" and this came up*smacks you*https://console5.com/store/vectrex-cap-kit.html
>>11107856Actually I wouldnt buy these my bad, 20 dollars for a few capacitors is a scamIts better to find out which ones you need and get them for a few dollars instead
>>11107858>Actually I wouldnt buy these my bad, 20 dollars for a few capacitors is a scamyes but I am retarded so maybe the convenient price is goodI didn't see Vectrex capacitors on eBay, I should googled lol
>>11107858it's not really a scam. its just priced higher since they are adding another middle man selling the service of prepackaging them. Restaurants charge more for food but they aren't scams.
>>11107783>every capacitoronly the electrolytics and even then it's not really necessaryfor veccy there's alignment you can do, i've seen it online before
