About 2 months ago, my son went swimming with his gameboy in his pocket. We let it dry several days and found it to be toast. Now I have considered trying a new battery, but we have already gotten him a replacement DS for his birthday last month.

I tried the gameboy again this past weekend (after reading this post) and it is still toast; but I took the game cartridge and tried it in his DS -- that worked! It is not as good as if I had found that the gameboy worked after all this time, but those games are about $40 and that (gameboy) game was his favorite.

Thanks for bring this back to my todo list!
