Nintendo Gaming / GBA SP problems

« on: April 16, 2003, 03:46:07 PM »

When NOA replied to my email after a week and a half, they reffered me to a local repair center.  They do Nintendo warranty fixes and other stuff.  When I called the repair center, they said that they might not have the equipment to fix the SP since it is so new.  I'll take mine in there soon.

The stupid place I bought the SP from wont let me return it.  I would consider this a defect.  The owner begs to differ.

Nintendo Gaming / floppy sp lid?

« on: April 16, 2003, 03:41:32 PM »

I noticed that mine was much looser than my friend's SP.  I have called NOA's tech support.  They want me to take it to a local repair center.  I'll get around to it eventually.
I originally had a battery problem as well, but it seems as the battery's life has improved since my first charge.  Only thing that bothers me is that damn hinge for the lid.

So yeah... you're not the only one.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Can you please show us a picture of the SP with the dust. Thank you.

Like I said, I DON'T have any dust on my screen.  So showing you a picture of my SP with dust doesn't make sense.  If I had a camera, which I don't then I would, if I could.

Update:  i emailed repair@noa.nintendo.com  and so far those lazy bums haven't replied.  Also, I've noticed that the proclaimed battery life of 10 hours with the light on is not happening on my unit.  I get maybe 6 hours max.  I sure picked up the wrong box!
