Make your games look and play like new!!!!!!
I got the cleaning solution kit on eBay. There are quite a few cleaning solutions out there so try a few out and see which one you like best.

  • Great video; it's really helpful!

    btw, I just received a few NES games that have a smoke smell on them. I read that using vinegar can get the smell of cigarette smoke out of things but I wasn't sure if they might damage the NES cart in anyway since it's an acid. Any advice?

  • @ZonifiedPLUS I would suggest trying it on a corner of a common cart just to see if it damages the finish at all. If it does not then go for it on the other carts. Just keep an eye as you go.

  • Thank you! I am getting a used NES tomorrow and a bunch of games from my friend. I never knew this is what caused the flickering. Thanks for showing me how to clean.

  • @ZeroBatteries Your very welcome! I hope that your new system works well for you.

  • @GanglyM Thanks! But unfortunately my friend didn't have an NES, he mistook it for another console. Really disappointed, was looking forward to playing my games. Do you know where I can purchase a reasonably priced console?

  • @ZeroBatteries

    I would start by looking on kijiji. It sometimes has some consoles for decent prices. Other than that your best bet would probably be eBay.

  • i never clean the actual cart, i didnt realize it would get dirt in my system thanks for the tip

  • Very well made, simple, step by step video. Thanks!

  • The only thing I do to clean the game is hold the chipboard in my hand and scrub the contacts with a bone-dry Scotch Bright pad. It is a bit unethical, but it does work. Just make sure that you get the bits of the pad off of the contacts.

  • HOLY CRAP HE SOUNDS LIKE WILLIAM FROM CODE LYOKO!
