Game Gear Problem

		Hi everyone! I have a Game Gear (doh). I almost never play it, but today when I tried I noticied one strange problem: I almost can´t hear the sound! I only can hear it if I put my ear in the speaker. Even using a headphone the sound still really "low". The last time I played it (a year or more ago) it was on perfect shape. Someone ever had this problem? I´m thinking about opening the GG, but before I want to know if someone ever had this problem... It´s really strange. My GG is in perfect shape. Akuma Matata!

		I'm no expert, but it sounds like the amp may have died...

		Yeah, I recall it being something really simple.

		If I'm not mistaken, all you have to do is replace a certain capacitor.

		No wonder theres like a million GGs going cheap on eBay. Most coming with MINT boxes, manuals and boxed games.... ...Worth buying it and repairing it? Is it easy?

		If you need a GG, yeah. If its just replacing a little part like that, it'd be pretty easy.
