 +Hyena12/07/2003 07:05:04PM | Quoting Janux: The NES has triangle screws, too, I think. That always pissed me off, because my NESes always died(well, not really died; the connectors died) after a few years, and I could never open the damn things. Yeah, I've never seen a triangle screwdriver. -_- I have like all these weird hex bits and stuff, but never found a triangle one. Weird. I opened up my NES and installed a new "improved" connector for cartridges (that supposedly stops the games from blinking. It worked beautifully for about a week). If there was a screw I couldn't get open with normal screwdrivers, I probably would have remembered. |
 @kiwibonga10/31/2003 07:01:16PM | Most online places that sell afterburner kits also sell tri-wing screwdrivers like the one you're looking for...
Also, a very small flathead screwdriver will work, but there are chances you'll break a screw or won't be able to screw them all back in, which is a definite con... |
| Vitriolic 10/31/2003 06:19:16PM | Yeah, you'll need one of those "Y" type screwdrivers. They aren't sold to the public at all to my knowledge, but you could probably score one on E-bay or something. |

 +Chaos10/31/2003 06:34:16AM | They're like these little triangle ones. Its kinda hard to explain. you'd have to see it. But I think the only way to get those screwdrivers is to special order them. |
| Janux 10/31/2003 03:41:20AM | RadioShack might have a screwdriver bit that fits into them. What shape are they? (Haven't gotten a GBA yet) |
| +Chaos 10/31/2003 01:00:12AM | Well, it looks my my GBA is broken (more or less). The R button is unresponsive unless i squeeze is insanely hard. I would try opening the thing up, but damn Nintendo and their oddly shaped screws. |
