If a GameBoy Advance module goes thru the wash......

[Claudia1]

..... will it wash away the memory?!?!? the game itself?!?!?

DS will find out tomorrow. He is blissfully asleep, unaware that he left one in his pants pocket and it has been washed, rinsed, and spun.

Do you mean one of the games? If so, the game can withstand the washer, we've had more than one go through it.

If your talking about games, they might be OK. I've had a couple that were OK, and a couple that got fried.

 

[Claudia1]

Yes, it was a game. Didn't go thru the dryer, just the washer.

I wil admit that a very tiny part of my brain wants it to malfunction to teach a long-unheeded lesson.........

EMPTY YOUR OWN POCKETS!!!!

Yes, I know that I am yelling. I'm not yelling at my DIS family, just my real one.......

 

[aahmom1]

I totally understand.

What a coincidence, we had a PS2 Memory card get washed and dried this week as well. That is the problem with 12 year old boys, testosterone poisoning setting in.

A few years ago my daughters GameBoy was stolen out of our car and dumped by the road, it rained all weekend and some neighbors found it in a storm drain. My dh took it apart, let it dry out, took the little worm out of it that had somehow found his way in there- and the thing is still working!! I think your son's game will be okay, but I too am an "empty your own pockets" kinda Mom.... I've got enough to do without emptying pockets and turning pants right side out!!
