Game Gear replacement mainboard 315-5335 v1.2
This is a brand-new manufactured replacement mainboard for your Sega Game Gear, using all new components. This board makes it possible to repair your VA0 model Game Gear which suffers from PCB damage caused by leaking capacitors or batteries.
The board has been reverse engineered from a Sega Game Gear VA0 model, better known as the DUAL-ASIC variant. Since I am not able to source new ASIC chips, cartridge connectors and expansion port connections, you need to supply these parts from one of your broken boards. TV-tuner is not supported - this is limited due to the current available LCD kits.
The board has not been fully tested with all LCD kits, the following combination is tested:
Installation is done at your own risk. I do not take responsibility for damage resulting from installation. Experienced soldering skill is needed – do no buy this kit if you do not know how to solder fine pitch SMD chips.
Before installation, please join the BennVenn discord via https://discord.gg/f8AbftjEMs and look for the #game-gear-mainboard-kit channel!

Assembled kit includes:
Blank board is just the PCB - NO parts included!
