Customers can purchase screens, joysticks, batteries, motherboards and buttons. Orders ship directly from Anbernic’s factory in China. The parts are sold individually and are marketed as genuine replacements.\n\nThis move gives owners a way to extend the life of inexpensive retro consoles instead of tossing them. It also signals that Anbernic expects its devices to stay in use for longer than the typical few‑year cycle. For a market that often trades in used hardware, having official spares could keep resale values steadier.\n\nWhether the parts are affordable enough to matter remains to be seen, but the option is now officially on the table.","[\"gaming\",\"hardware\",\"repair\"]","2026-06-15T14:38:26.000Z","2026-06-15T15:39:06.240Z","2026-06-15T15:39:11.971Z","published",null,[],"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.xyz.onl\u002Farticle-images\u002Fanbernic-adds-official-spare-parts-for-its-handhelds.webp",[26,27,28],"gaming","hardware","repair",[30],{"name":31,"url":32},"PCMag","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.pcmag.com\u002Fnews\u002Fanbernic-now-offers-replacement-parts-for-its-handheld-gaming-systems",0]
