Complete parts and screw ledger

Keep every screw with the layer it secures. A zero means the part is installed without a recorded screw of its own; it does not mean the layer can be skipped.

Assembly order: build from the inside out

Follow the in-game notebook if your copy differs. For the recorded layout, place the Back Panel and Bottom Frame foundation, seat the Motherboard, Frame, Memory Slots and Power Card, connect the Cable, then place the Disc Drive, Front Panel and Disc Drive Cover. Tighten only the screws exposed for the active layer.

Disc Drive stuck below 100% clean

Players have reported the Disc Drive stopping around 7495% even after changing tools and camera angle. Treat this as a reported issue, not a normal hidden step. Update first, zoom and rotate once, then preserve the save. Do not keep scrubbing indefinitely or replace several good parts at random.

05

Diagnose before buying a donor

Separate dirty, broken, and missing parts. A same-model donor is useful only when the value of its reusable components exceeds its purchase price. The 1.0.013r marketplace rebalance means older listing prices are historical; compare the current listing, seller rating, condition, license access, and exact failed part.

Marketplace decisions start with the listing: compare condition, price, seller information, license access, and the parts or resale purpose before buying.

Competition and final verification

Independent records list a Nony PlayMachine assembly competition, but timing and rewards can change. Practice the ten-layer order on a normal repair. Before hand-in, confirm 20 screws are back in their original layers, all ten parts are present and clean, required repairs are complete, and hacking—when requested—is done only after the device works.

07

FAQ: why will the next part not attach?

Check whether the previous layer still needs screws, rotate to the opposite face, and confirm the part is clean and working. Follow the notebook rather than dragging random components.

08

FAQ: is the Nony PlayMachine a real PlayStation teardown?

No. It is an in-game device inspired by familiar hardware. Use ReStory's notebook and interaction points, not real-console service instructions.

09

FAQ: are prices guaranteed?

No. Marketplace values and margins can change by condition, seller, license state and patch. This page treats screw and part layout separately from price observations.

Verification note

Official information, observable release behavior, and community reports are deliberately separated. A community report is not presented as a universal fix until it can be reproduced or supported by current patch notes.
