Holy Crap!

Thats awesome. Would you happen to know if there are any replacement/repair to a gameboy dot matrix?

What's wrong with it?
Most likely, it'll just need a new screen. Is it an original Gameboy brick? If so, it would be pretty cool to try and retrofit a GBP screen into it.

So, I bought 3 busted 3DS units on eBay last week knowing good and well that all of them are under warranty since the red version hasn't even been out for 12 months yet. They're all pretty much brand new. Store returns that just sat around I guess. Either way, looked 'em up, they're good to go in for repair! Paid 200 bucks for what will amount to 3 brand new units when all is said and done. I'm pretty amped. I'm taking one, and there's a pair of twins across the street that claimed the other two. About 65 bucks a pop for the each of us. I feel like I got a pretty good deal ;)

What is broken?
Still if you open those up the warranty is gone. IF they are still under warranty i would just send them to Nintendo to get them fixed AND keep my warranty.

That's what I'm saying, all broken, sending in for warranty ;)
They each have a sort of different issue. One won't charge, one won't stay powered up (turns on, then shuts off 2 seconds later), and the 3rd works for about 1-2 minutes before giving me an error message telling me to turn the unit off. All are basically brand new, including the boxes (obviously), all paperwork, chargers, cradles, etc. One was registered when it originally sold, which meant just filling out the online warranty claim info, and the other two weren't registered by the original retailer. A quick phone call and they're on their way as well (ALL red 3DS systems are still under warranty, which is a big part of why I risked buying this auction).
