Replacement screws for gamboy portables

Post by kuzimoto »

Does anyone know the size and threading of the tri-wing screw that comes on gamboy colors, advance, etc.? I want to replace them with regular philips type screws so that taking it apart again will be a lot easier, because I don't have the correct screwdriver.

Should be cheaper than replacing the screws :)

Just a word of advice, buy two or three. They're cheap enough, and if you ever let people hang around your tools, these are the first things to disappear.
