I need some advice/opinions
I just dug up my brand new PSP Go, with the intention to pop it open and remove the battery. To my dismay, a brand new system is sealed, I didn't remember that...
So, do I unseal the system to remove the battery, or do I simply leave the system sealed.
If I unseal it, I may save the system from damage. Though that damage may have already occurred. The system is worth a fortune in its sealed state, even if the system is actually already bricked...

>The PSP Go is worth a bajillion on ebay as a useless brick
Just open the thing and lie about the condition later when you sell it

Hmm, didn't really think of that. Can you peel seal stickers with Goo Gone? It's one of those big round clear ones

Not sure, maybe you could use a razor blade tip to get a pull on it

If that thing is factory sealed in the box, find some autistic retard to give you $10k or whatever to have it graded and sell it and go buy another GO

Complete ones are worth bout $200

Sealed ones are worth at least $300 (a beat to fuck one got that), very few are in the sales data, but one sold for $900+ in 2024. Pricecharting has no data on graded ones, their price is literally madeup there

Sell it sealed, then buy another one.

Your conclusion is useless because your premise is wrong. They're not worth a fortune sealed. If you're going by what people on eBay are offering sealed ones for, that's just grifters trying to make a quick buck. They're not valued higher because they're sealed or something. The PSP go is actually notoriously less popular than the original PSP.

Sell it and use PPSSPP on a Steam Deck like a normal human being

That's silly, you'd need to sell it on eBay, and the fees and shipping will eat up most of the extra $100 it's worth, and then op is buying a used one

Why do you think that you should remove the battery at this point?. It’s Schrödinger’s cat.

That makes zero sense

What? Batteries are a coin toss. You’d be surprised how many oldies are goodies.

Well I meant to do it 5 years ago, but it was lost in storage when people started mentioning the exploding batteries

What do you think the Schrodinger's cat experiment is meant to represent

>>33266488
A joke on the Big Bang Theory?

The coin toss.
