Very useful for Nintendo fans!

I used one of the tools to open my Pickachu Nintendo 64 the first day I received it. There were no problems removing the locking screws. This set is of very good quality and costs $10. Wii will use Triple Wing to open my Wii soon. The last tri-vane I received from another company was of very poor quality, with a bent shaft.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Useless Features

Cheap, decent and just what I wanted.

Cheap, decent and just what I wanted. I bought it to clean cartridges for resale. I don't need high quality snap-on tools, I just want a tool that barely works. I'm sure you've all seen the "melt pen tip" trick, which is junk. I got a cheap tool that came with a carrying case so I didn't mix it with all my other tools. I can confirm this will fit screws on NES cartridges as I've taken apart hundreds.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • old

Great product that meets my gaming needs!

I have used this on my Super Nintendo, N64 and Game Cube and controllers, worked great opening them up so I could service them. I say this: be careful when opening your old consoles, plastic becomes brittle over time. When I opened my SNES & N64, one of the holes on the inside of the console where the security screws are located broke. So note that if your console/controller breaks where the security screws are, it's not necessarily a security bit error.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • The list goes on.

Great kit! fits screwdriver

This is an amazing product for working on old but useful Nintendo games! I've used the kit a few times to open and clean old games. No ordinary tool fits these old games and we have many tools! They work great and do their job. Love the small case and the extra screws! I watched a few YouTube videos about cleaning up old games and without these tools I could never have opened games without damage! For me they are worth their price. I've never played video games before, but I love seeing kidsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Available in white only

bad experience, much trouble. Buy official Nintendo tools instead.

Everything as described. Delivered on time but the drivers are not very good. There are 2 Y drivers of different sizes. The one for the smaller heads worked pretty well, but the larger one sucked. It didn't grab the screws properly and stripped some of them to the point where I had to drill out the heads and remove the post. They have a lot of good reviews, maybe I was wrong or something. Where I could, I replaced the Y-head screws with Phillips head screws. So if I ever need to fix the Wiiโ€ฆ

  • Easy to read control panel

Decent tool set.

I took apart my old Gameboy Pocket and some game cartridges to restore it. I also opened up some NES cartridges to clean the pins. I haven't actually tested these tools, but they fit fairly well with very little clearance on fasteners, so you really don't risk removing the tool or the fastener if you don't fully tighten the tool. One thing that made me choose this over a set of security bits for about the same price was that they are specialty screwdrivers so you can be more maneuverable andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Not bad

Good but not great: hand tool

It's good for the price. It will work just fine, but you'll have to work a little harder than usual to get those Nintendo screws out. I had no trouble with triangular screwdrivers, but the Phillips screwdriver was a bit small but still did the job. I haven't had a chance to use the 3.8mm, but the 4.5mm is a bit too big and the recess isn't deep enough to properly tighten the screws. This is where the tricky part starts as I had to push hard and slowly unscrew the screws. It didn't strip any ofโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • So far so good

Don't waste your time with homemade tools, do it right and buy this set!

AWESOME toolbox! Opened n64 with it for cleaning/restoring/painting. It is really necessary to open these plastic dinosaurs, thorough cleaning of the connectors will make the connection much better! and get rid of the headache. To be honest I used both methods to open my case because I was impatient, I wasted 3 screwdrivers to grind them but the bik handle method worked a bit but remember, that they only work to loosen screws, they do NOT re-tighten them. .These drivers arrived on time and doโ€ฆ

Pros
  • 1 year trial
Cons
  • Reliability

Great toolbox for accessing consoles and games

So I pulled out my original NES which I've had since 1986, I wanted to play old school games. The only problem was that I had a flashing RED light or green screen in some games. I checked YouTube and there are tons of videos on how to clean up your games and console. Only you need special tools to get into game cartridges. I was looking for and found this neat little bundle as I also have all the Nintendo consoles except the GameCube so this might come in handy. First of all, screwdrivers forโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Handy thing
Cons
  • Functionality
