yeah, i have...not very thoroughly though. I should try and disassemble my nes and then take out the slot and do it properly..

I'm pretty sure it's not the cartridges. I (only) have about 13, and they all stopped working at the same time. Another thing is the pins go all the way out, like on the right pictures in the first link. In addition, i have to do the same thing with every game for it to work (that is, press it so it ...

About modding my own Nes; i don't think ...

First of all: hello there, i'm new. Second:

I have a question about my NES. I bought a NES from a guy I know, about a year ago. This is, of course, a great thing but I'm having problems. When I insert a cartridge I have to spend a long time getting my NES to work. All it does is come up with a ...
