If your Game Boy Pocket does not turn on, you may need to replace the motherboard. The motherboard, the main printed circuit board (PCB), is the central hub where all the parts that make a Game Boy Pocket function meet—such as the sound, power, and visual component. A faulty motherboard can result in a loss of power and functionality in your Game Boy Pocket.

Before using this guide, make sure to test your Game Boy Pocket with fresh batteries. Doing so confirms that the motherboard is the faulty part.

Before beginning, power down your device and remove all batteries.
