Looking up part numbers right now.
I had a look at the switches, and they're a standard componnent.

Dead or otherwise, a gba will be 50 cents which is also high for two tactile switches.

The point is that we can easily find a drop-in replacement part which will help others in the future.

I also figured if the buttons were found, and they sold for like.. 50 cents each, it would be cheaper to buy bulk (10-20).

I'm talking about the actual switch buttons the L and R pieces touch on the circuit board. I bought what I though was the closes resemblance of them and re-soldered them to the board but the button housing and the button's mechanical trigger switch do not line up. The housing is too big to fit in a case and the switch isn't long enough for the L and R pads to touch it. Here's what i've done so far.

So It's looking the easiest solution to fixing this to find the exact buttons that the AGB-001 used. Does anyone know what that would be?

Cheers.
