    I used medical alcohol and Q-tips to clean the connectors, and you had to push the game back and to the right.

    Well, back in the day I would usually pull the cartridge out 2 or 3 times to readjust it but that never seemed to work. More often than not it would only work after blowing on the cartridge. It works, and many of my SNES games still work perfectly, after blowing on them first of course.

    I used to program my own into the ZX Spectrum from mags my dad would buy. Also we played pong, and the 45 minute tapes that you had to play into the computer for 20 minutes to just play a game. Outrun had to have a seperate tape to save to.

    If you've ever blown Mario, Link, Samus, and others to get them to play right... you might be a real gamer.

    Those of you old enough to remember the original Nintendo know what I mean... and it isn't dirty.

    My dad is a heavy smoker and often we had to blow dust/ash out of the cartridge (if we didn't play a game for a while) and sometimes we had to use alcohol and q-tips to clean them. Both of these worked for us.

    You might be a real gamer if you sometimes miss games like 'Streets of Rage' Dx
