Vtech talking Whiz-Kid power mouse

[omgphil]

After taking a while trying to figure out why this thing wouldn't turn on I realised it had no batteries in it ¬.¬
As if that wasn't embarassing enough I then opened up the bottom to find the brains of the thing aren't even in there,  and all the keys fell out!

But anyway I opened up the screen where the real circuitry lies, and found something that looks potentially seriously bendable.



I've found clean loops, glitchy loops, glitches, and ocassionally it blurts out a sci-fi robot voice, which is always nice (:

Definitely worth it if you are able to get one cheap!

hey phil, hows trix? we've got another inverter in feb if your interested, maybe with some visuals?
i had a talking whiz-kid, bit of a bugger  for crashing tho. looks good as an alternative laptop tho, especially if you stick a slice of apple on the lid.

Hey hey
Of course I'm interested! (:
What sort of thing were you thinking?

Saw your entry for the Getlofi comp, awesome! Hilarious too . Haha.

That looks similar to the circuitry of my "Talking Lesson One Challenger"
Unless it is completely different, you will have lots of fun. On my challenger, the blob chip is raised on a platform..
You can even glitch it just by putting the cartridge in the wrong way round.
