There's Something FISHY About This GAME GEAR

I bought this faulty Game Gear on eBay and in this video I'm trying to fix it. It doesn't stay powered on and it doesn't have any sound. It also smells.

In anticipation, I got myself an SMD replacement capacitor repair kit from the guys over at RetroSix. Check that out here: https://retrosix.co.uk/Game-Gear-Capa...

Hope you enjoy!
