my nes game wont come out of the console, how do u remove it do i try to lift it out or do i press down and it pops out???? netiher is working lol i jsut got it HELP!!!
I just pulled my two NES Consoles out and they work just fine! Only method that worked for me was blowing in the games and system! (Been in a box for 10+ years!)
Despite what the game paks says, cleaning with isopropanol or some kind of alcohol is the way to go. Wiggle it most likely damages both the game and the console. -.-
Cute video for a method that works 50% of the time I have found a method that works 99% of the time click on my channel to view this video it was just posted this weekend . No bull it works plz comment let me know what you think ! Thanks game on
guys, wtf is wrong with the red ring of death or what it's called. I have had my xbox for 5years, played on it 13h a day, and NEVER GOT that ring. am I doing something wrong?
And now for a real way to clean the game. A pink rubber eraser. Most of the issues you fix through wiggling the game are bad contact issues. There is electricity going through this so it causes very minor arcs between the contacts inside the NES and the game cartridge, which causes carbon build-up. A pink rubber eraser is one of the most reliable ways of removing that carbon build up without damaging the game. ...cleaning the NES internal contacts though is a PITA.
The top-loader was a lot less hassle to deal with, but I sadly never got to use one. Already had moved on to the original PS1 console by then.
You should teach all the other 'gamer gurlz' how to actually do interesting and fun videos that are awesome to watch without having to resort to the 'HEY I'M A GURL PAY ATTENTION TO MEH!' stuff they seem to want to do. I'm very glad you don't do that, kudos! :)
Your Awesome!!! my brother and i try and try and didnt work but the last tecnique of wiggleing the game work perfect he said IS SHE A MASTER OR WHAT? thanks!!!
Not sure if you'll read this or not, but, thanks a ton for that tip. I had a hard time getting the one my dad brought home to work right, but that wiggle it advice made it so it worked - even more wiggling got it so it worked flawlessly.
I wiggle the game in the NES, and it takes a while. It's also kinda inconsistent. It's odd cause the guy at the store used alcohol and a q-tip and it worked, after he hooked it up with that RF cable or whatever, but when I took it home and hooked it up with RCA, it didn't work. I doubt it's the connection...It's probably the game or the needles. But still, why the heck did it work when he cleaned it?? He popped it in ONCE and it worked without wiggling, but when I clean it, it takes some tries.
Bullshit. Blowing on cart connector DOES help!!! Its prooven 1000000 times. And not only NES carts is bad at that. Also MasterSystem and Genesis. And even SNES sometimes. Just BLOW the f..g thing and it goes!!! Thats it. Simple.
the only really well working way is cleaning the pads with CRC or other contact cleaner.
And it should be also added to the connector inside the console. After that it'll work with no problems for very very long time. (last time i cleaned my own ones was about 4 years ago and still no problems.). :)
I remember when I used my NES where it would blink on and off but the game title was not garbled and I would have to do all these methods to get it to work.
Then 4 years ago I read online about disabling the lockout chip and it does work. No more blinking at random. I wish I would have known that back in the 90's. But I now use emulators on the pc instead..
The method requires opening the NES and breaking the 4th pin off the NES lockout chip.
@jarnoob Ok cause I have sonic and knuckles and no matter how hard I try I cant play it I get the sega enterprises info yay but I dont see sonic and knuckles shortly after like I should, all the contactors look good but I hope the games not fried
actually that technique would work but its not fixing the problem completely and might damage the game over time. if you really want to get your games working (this is the most extreme way)
buy a 3.8 nintendo security bit
open the game up
buy the finest #0000 steal wool
use alcohol or windex and put some on the wool
scrub your brass nes teeth (both sides)
wipe it off with windex and use a paint brush to get any that might be on the chip its self. this will make it work like new again.
I don't know this will work for most people, but after I disabled the lockout chip in my NES, I found that sliding the cartridge in as far to the left as possible works every time, with every game.
I don't know if this works with the lockout chip enabled.
Had me laughing and remembering my frustrations as a kid! ..btw, if you're feeling adventurous and nerdy enough to take apart your old NES, cut pin 4 on the "3193A" chip. This is the #1 best fix for the dreaded flash. =)
GuitarAudiologist is right. the 3193A chip is the regional lockout chip and disconecting the 4th pin will solve most blinking light problems. Now for the loading/garbage on screen, using a q-tip with alcohol will solve a lot of problems too, and when that doesn't work it means your zif socket inside is on the fritz and needs to be replaced. It's cheap and easy to replace. You can also fix it trying to pull the contacts out a bit. You won't even need to push the cart down after that!
This works cause youre actually rubbing the terminals together and cleaning it. Not only does the cartridge have to be clean, but the terminals inside the slot.
amazon DOT com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_c_1_6?url=search-alias%3Dvideogames&field-keywords=nes+72+pin+connector&x=0&y=0&sprefix=nes+72 72 pin connectors and here is the super 8 ebay DOT com/sch/i.html?_nkw=super+8+converter if you are classic console gamer, you should own one or both of these instead writing the 'DOT" just use a period
there are some way better solutions: get a replacement for the 72 pin connector(check amazon and ebay for your side loader NES, shouldnt be more than 10 bucks. or get the super 8 converter. lets a snes play nes 8 bit games as well as super famicom games(without having to bend back the tips by your snes pin connector).
so this helped me to get super mario working but now i have a whole new problem- the words are like wacked out on my game? things like SCORE or TIME are spelt like D7L3 or something dumb like that. what is that all about? any solutions?
After the cleaner apply some lite toothpaste to a q-tip and wipe the pins with it. Get both sides, you are going to see alot of green and black gunck that the alcohol did not get. Make sure to get all the toothpaste off then clean with alcohol again. For added protection from dirt and oxidation in the future I apply a very small amount of vasiline to the pins after the cleaning. Works every time. Good Luck.
Actualy blowing in the cartridge works And the spit thing... l2 swallow your spit before blowing. Worked every time. same with the bullying it. up untill my NES was stolen and all 20+ games were stolen and another 20+ destroyed in the Tornado in Joplin... Well I can't say destroyed because we never found them... But the probably still work.
@toiletandtoilet I wasn't but alot of family was... I have pictures they sent. Theres alos a picture of them on some youtube videos. Look for a sign saying "Extreme Home Makover" when you see slide show videos. Its my grannies house... Well was.
Well the best way to get a game to work was to put it in as you usually would and than you place your index fingers on the corners and just move the game back and forth a few times, essentially getting the pins locked in properly. This is by far the best method. Trust me.
Well done tutorial!! Nice and clear narration with easy to read captions. very fun to watch. I'd like that all tutorials were this fun and easy to watch. BTW, it did help me with my NES. So thanx a bunch!!!!
You are obviously young. Shifting the position of the game while its inside the NES does work, but it's NOT the best way. When I was a kid, I used the 2 games trick. It worked for me. The thing was that some games would work if you held them down inside the nes but not if you let them up into the regular position. So, to hold them in position and to free up your hands, you'd use another game to hold it in place.
@jerrod24 The absolute BEST way to get NES games to work is to CLEAN THEM. Dirt gets on the connectors and interferes with the data transfer. Alcohol and Q-tips work best for me. Using this method, I encounter ZERO software malfunction, but be careful. Use only enough alcohol to wet the Q-tip.
Lastly, blowing your NES games is one of the WORST things you can do to them.
I remember calling the Nintendo Hotline and they told me to do exactly this. All my friends asked me to fix their games for them with this. SUPER 80s POPULARITY.
The reason I remember why blowing on the cartridge has been known to work is because when you blow in them, what you're actually doing is fogging up the connectors, giving them more conducting ability. Fogging= basically wetting the connectors a tiny bit. The connectors in the system and the cart have a better chance at transferring game data. Not a proven fact, but that's what I remember growing up on. ;p
The guru at my local used game store always cleans the cartridges with alcohol, and when that doesn't work he uses lighter fluid, and that has yet to fail me.
All of this except blowing to clean the cartridges is the WRONG way of cleaning them!!!! Half them will ruin the NES and the cartridge!!!! I don't know and I don't care if this is a gag video but, you don't EVER wreck a NES!!!! EVER! If you want to play a NES game without hassle, download an emulator!
Blowing it was still need for the super nintendo. and some of the applications were needed as well. One other thing was coins like penies or dimes on the power button and cartidge.
Number 3 for life!!! If you do it enough times, it'll work. I'll try your way tho. At of all the previous ones tho, number 3 always worked with persistence.
tHE WIGGLE DID NOT WORK FOR ME...........BUT BLOWING THROUGH A SHIRT DID (THEN 30 SECOND LATER FROZE :-(....SEEM LIKE ALL NES ARE A BIT DIFFERENT....TRY BLOW ME WITH PROTECTION MIGHT WORK...LOL
thank god my cart of life force wouldn't work with konami code on the fc twin we tried everything to make it work you method of making it work in the nes work thank you rinry <3 =)
Blowing in the game does work sometimes. The reason why it works is because when you blow in the cartridge, you're removing dust from it. Dust in the cartridge or in the console (even in modest quantities) can prevent the game from making a solid connection with the NES. But of course, this will only work when dust happens to be the problem. lol. The toploading NES however, had a most awesome dust guard.
You're little tricks are okay, but the #1 Reason they don't work is because the Nes itself. The solution? Replace the 72 Pin Connector (That's the part inside the nes where the it reads the game) These connectors were cheaply made and wear out over time, Go on E-bay find a new one, print out a guide and replace! I did it and I never had a problem with my Nes.
not "inferior methods" -- in my experience just standard methods. anyway, the wiggle doesn't always work. it's really not the "all time greatest secret" (secret? really?) My all time greatest PROBLEM is not getting it to work (zelda please please work!!) but making it through the game without it getting fuzzy and eventually crashing. the wiggle does nothing for me. Ha ha ha, good video though!
@Nekokakashi189 Yeah it was. It came out in Late 2005, November or December to be exact in North America. Games like PGR 3 even say Copyright 2005 on the back of them. Get your facts straight.
@Nekokakashi189 It's all good man. Surprising, isn't it? Microsoft even mentioned that the Xbox 360 will continue to be produced up until the latest of 2015. a 10 year console run. Doubt it's going to be as great as the Ps2's
Wow, ps3 fan much? Xbox 360 is far superior. We have higher fmv, better network(psn gets hacked, that's what free service does) and Xbox 360 controllers are way better.

The reason I remember why blowing on the cartridge has been known to work is because when you blow in them, what you're actually doing is fogging up the connectors, giving them more conducting ability. Fogging= basically wetting the connectors a tiny bit. The connectors in the system and the cart have a better chance at transferring game data. Not a proven fact, but that's what I remember growing up on. ;p

@75edainsworth It's not recommended. Buy a new 72 Pin connector. There like $5 on eBay.

The guru at my local used game store always cleans the cartridges with alcohol, and when that doesn't work he uses lighter fluid, and that has yet to fail me.

All of this except blowing to clean the cartridges is the WRONG way of cleaning them!!!! Half them will ruin the NES and the cartridge!!!! I don't know and I don't care if this is a gag video but, you don't EVER wreck a NES!!!! EVER! If you want to play a NES game without hassle, download an emulator!

Blowing it was still need for the super nintendo. and some of the applications were needed as well. One other thing was coins like penies or dimes on the power button and cartidge.

I remember a lot of times. I would spit on it after blowing on it; it worked every time.
js560000 7 months ago
Blowing in the game does work sometimes. The reason why it works is because when you blow in the cartridge, you're removing dust from it. Dust in the cartridge or in the console (even in modest quantities) can prevent the game from making a solid connection with the NES. But of course, this will only work when dust happens to be the problem. lol. The toploading NES however, had a most awesome dust guard.

You're little tricks are okay, but the #1 Reason they don't work is because the Nes itself. The solution? Replace the 72 Pin Connector (That's the part inside the nes where the it reads the game) These connectors were cheaply made and wear out over time, Go on E-bay find a new one, print out a guide and replace! I did it and I never had a problem with my Nes.

KirbyKlaim64 7 months ago
not "inferior methods" -- in my experience just standard methods. anyway, the wiggle doesn't always work. it's really not the "all time greatest secret" (secret? really?) My all time greatest PROBLEM is not getting it to work (zelda please please work!!) but making it through the game without it getting fuzzy and eventually crashing. the wiggle does nothing for me. Ha ha ha, good video though!

@Nekokakashi189 It's all good man. Surprising, isn't it? Microsoft even mentioned that the Xbox 360 will continue to be produced up until the latest of 2015. a 10 year console run. Doubt it's going to be as great as the Ps2's
