My hand slipped while disassembling the system (original goal was to replace shoulder buttons and plastic housing). I had to scrape away points on the board and use some 32 awg enameled wire to recreate the connections. Good news is every fits and is back in working order.

Wow. I wouldn’t even consider modifying a Gameboy Micro. Too expensive
That reminds me, I have one of those hanging on a peg over my desk still that needs a battery replacement. One of these days I’ll get around to it. These days aside from the novelty factor it’s so much easier to just throw a pair of AA’s into one of the Batarang OG GBA’s or bung a game into the Gameboy Player.
Don’t get me started on the damn shoulder buttons. The DS Lites were also notorious for breaking those via cracking the switches clean off the board just with normal use. I forget how many of those I had to painstakingly resolder. Which, in retrospect, I did with sub-optimal tools back when I was broke.
