The Blackangel Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 All things considered, it’s pretty difficult to repair them. The electrical components, like capacitors and resistors, have changed so much that it’s hard to find parts for a damn near 50 year old system. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, trying to find some parts for an Xbox 360 a few years ago and I struggled to find parts for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 I had a mixed experience with repairing my old console. The joystick replacement was a breeze, but the input issues required some trial-and-error troubleshooting. Tip: always refer to the manual and online resources for troubleshooting guides.
