All Devices & Repair Database — Every Device You Can Repair
Complete ReStory: Chill Electronics Repairs device database — all 16+ launch devices across 7 categories, officially licensed Atari hardware vs. parody brands, license-gated device types, repair complexity, and which devices are worth buying for resale and salvage.
Overview
ReStory's launch catalog contains roughly 16 named device types across 7 categories. Some use officially licensed Atari branding; the rest are legally distinct parodies of classic Y2K hardware (the Nokia 3310 becomes the "Pokia 3310", the Motorola Razr becomes the "Autorolla Razor", and so on).
Important: the catalog is not available all at once. Device types unlock through the license system — buy a license and new categories of devices start appearing in your order queue. Some marketing materials cite "2,000+ devices"; as of the launch build that figure is unconfirmed (unverified) — the confirmed roster is below, with individual device instances (colors, conditions, orders) scaling up through repeat and online orders.Device Database (Launch Build)

Device Complexity & Value Quick Reference
| Complexity | Devices | What Makes Them Hard | Value Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | Walkie-talkie, Unicorp 99L, Atari CX40, Eggotchi | Few parts, no moving mechanisms | Cheap to buy, cheap to sell — best as clean-only margin jobs |
| Medium | Pokia 3310, Pokia Njoy, Autorolla Razor, Palaloid, Atari 2600, Atari Lynx | Tiny circuit boards, keypads, screen assemblies | Constant demand; the Razor is the one device where new-part builds reportedly break even (community reports — exact figures unverified) |
| Hard | Nony Goman | Cassette mechanism with many small moving parts | High repair payout, but the most involved job — many small parts |
| Premium | Nony PlayMachine, Patento BS, Robodog, laptop-class devices | Licensed consoles and premium categories arrive later | Highest-paying repairs once licensed; expensive to stock parts for |
Which Devices Appear When?
Device availability is gated by licenses, and licenses are gated by money. The exact license-to-device mapping is still being mapped by the community (unverified), but the confirmed progression shape is:
- Start: simple devices (flashlights, walkie-talkies, basic phones)
- Tier 2 license: a handheld console tier (PSP-style devices per early reports)
- Later tiers: laptops, cameras, robot dogs and other premium categories
See the License System Guide for the full progression picture.
Value & Flipping: What to Buy on the Marketplace
The Marketplace (flea market) is a gamble with a skill floor. Most listings are junk, seller ratings don't guarantee condition, and buying the wrong device at the wrong price erases your profit in one repair. Community consensus from launch-week play:
- The Autorolla Razor exception. The Razor is widely reported as the one device where building from brand-new parts at least breaks even — the exception that proves the rule. For nearly every other device, paying retail for new components and selling the finished product loses money.
- Restoration beats manufacturing. The game's real economy is restore, don't build: buy broken cheap, repair only what's broken, sell high.
- Margins are thin. Most flips sell for only a modest amount above their purchase price — one significant repair cost (a screen, a board) can erase the entire margin. Buy cheap or don't buy.
- Buying rules: only buy when the price is far below finished sale value; assume seller ratings lie; keep cash reserves; don't outpace your bench; keep customer orders separate from resale stock.
Salvage: Where the Real Value Is
Even a failed flip is a parts donor. The most valuable salvage targets (community-confirmed):
- LCD assemblies — screens are among the most common failures and most expensive parts
- Button membranes & keypads — fail constantly, cheap to stockpile
- Speakers — small, frequent failures
- Battery connectors & flex cables — fragile, regularly damaged
- Screws & brackets — free assembly fuel
Device Tips
- Keep broken devices. A cheap junk device can contain several usable parts worth far more than its purchase price — salvage LCD assemblies, button membranes, speakers and flex cables before shredding the rest.
- The Nony Goman (cassette player) is the classic "hard first job" — set aside time, organize parts on the bench, and use the notepad's assembly order religiously.
- Phone repairs lean on tiny circuit boards and keypad work — tweezers are mandatory, and a good magnifier makes the difference.
- Soldering appears on consoles and anything with boards — see the Repair Process Guide before your first board repair.
