Play It Loud Game Boy Repair: Fixing a Broken Trace

Join me in this candid Game Boy restoration journey as we tackle a broken trace on a Green Play It Loud edition. Apologies in advance for the slightly sloppy filming, the filming was sorta an afterthought after I had already started working on this. I was really tired... and its pretty obvious... hope its still entertaining.
