family converter problems

i bought a family converter off of gannon and only half of my games work on it
when I connect the port directly to the board will this change?

hmm... that's odd.... You might need to clean those games

Are you sure you have the games going in the right way...

Or do the carts only fit in one way?

gamer2 says

i got more games to work its just im having trouble with Mario 2,3
mario 2 wont get into the first level and Mario 3 just blinks on and off so it wont play

im working on a Super Joy 3 red model

so would it change if i conected it directly to the board

I'd say before you do something like that is to take up what gannon said and clean the games your having trouble with. This why you can avoid making things hard on yourself, as connecting the fami-converter to the board might not work and so your back to square one.

If you lack any cleaning kits do a search of the NES 8bit forum as we have talked about cleaning the NES and games.

connecting it directley or with the converter wont change compatibility cleaning may help but its more than likeley issues with the famiclone your useing
