Saw what I thought was a dead pixel on my Gameboy Micro. Prayed it was dust or something inside the screen shell. So I popped that off, gave it a wipe, then I noticed the dead pixel was moving. Pulled out a jewelers loupe I had and lo and behold it’s a bug of some sort in between the layers of the screen.

Damn that’s literally a hardware bug
Guess you could say there was a “bug” in there haha 😅
For how long he managed to survive there lol
KILL IT BURN IT WITH FIIIIIREEEE
Zombie pixel!
Ew… how the hell did a bug get inside? This is like my worse nightmare.
The same thing happened to my tv, with ants. They chose to die in the DEAD CENTER of the screen. I eventually had to get a new one, since it was too distracting having ants on top of every game.
Dust mite. Same thing happened to my GBA after letting it sit for a while.
I had a bug crawling under the screen of my SP when I was a kid. Kid me though I could get rid of it by pressing on the screen… That made a lot of “dead” pixels
Might be a booklice (they eat mold), or a thrip.
Pray it’s not a bedbug or you’ll need to set your whole house on fire
