Editorial interest 84/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Montréal blog documenting the repair, cleaning, and resale of broken retro game consoles.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-21 issue.
For
Retro console owners, repair hobbyists, and Montréal game collectors
Worth noticing
Stories pair console models with concrete faults, repairs, and before-and-after images.

Field notes

The homepage treats each console as a documented case rather than a generic repair listing, naming models such as the SCPH-9001 and showing before-and-after material. Visible entries include a lens-cleaning fix, a console misdiagnosed because of one bad test disc, and a PSone whose modchip was attached with hot glue. Future posts are listed for another PlayStation and a yellow NES, while contact links invite inquiries.
