Thanks for the tutorial I had problem with Cartridges not loading on my Megadrive. I used your method (as a coincidence I had some Mr Muscle Window Cleaner!) and then inserted my carts into my console and they all worked first time. Thanks for this fantastic tutorial. Who would have thought window cleaner would be multi-purpose.

@DLiberator78 I'm glad you found it useful! :)

Yeah Glass Cleaner, it's a Godly substance! haha... Cheers :)

Didn't work for me.

@scorpionatthepc Hmm... 2600 games must be differentt... I haven't tried it.

[scorpionatthepc]

Ok. Will try it on my old 'river raid 2' for atari 2600 which won't load and let you know how I get on.

@scorpionatthepc I've never tried this on a 2600 game, but good luck!

I'm cleaning off my Batman Beyond return of the joker cartridge using a few q-tips and i guess i'll use window cleaner on it as a result.

I did this to my old game cartridges that have not worked for years and years and I thought I'd never play them again. This worked wonders and now the games work flawlessly! And you'll be surprised at all the dirt that came out of the cartridges... yuck. When you think about it it makes sense as some of those cartridges are nearly 20 years old and have probably never been cleaned in their lifetime. Thanks for this video, it helped me so well!

Thanks! Worked perfectly for my SNES cartridges.

good video for cleaning :) though personally I open the cartridge to do it, much less awkwardness when you can just get right to the pins
