I've had an absolutely marvelous time using the Anbernic RG35XXSP ever since I received it back in late July, incredible bang for your buck at $60.

After some extensive gaming sessions on the device, I noticed the A button has started to sink down further than the other buttons due to repeated use. Luckily, I have all the tools needed to disassemble this unit on hand. I'm free for the rest of the day, so let's see if we can repair this minor defect.

@[email protected] I tend to mash the A button when playing Pokémon, it seems like that has to be what did it. I have not played very many four button games on this device to begin with, so it must have been the repeated use. The B button also left a mark on the membrane, but not nearly as noticeable.

And yeah I tried to keep the sticky part of the tape rolled inward to not touch any components. If it's an issue later on, not super hard to get back in there
