Bit for Opening GBA & GBA Carts

Post by SAM »

Guys, Nintendo seems to use some kind of special screw for their GBA system and cart.

I need to open up my GBA (Oldest version without lighting), and might be some of the carts.

Could anyone tell me the number of the screw driver bit for that, so that I could find them easier.

P.S. - Nintendo seems to use different bolts for their system and cart.

I think you should be able to find the tri-wing screwdrivers locally (where you live, at least).

Otherwise, I have been able to open my GBA using a small flathead screwdriver. Be very careful, but firm when doing this, as you could damage both the screw and the driver if you slip.

Found it, thank you. :)
(But I still don't know its number... :oops: )

I could swop the battery within the carts now.
