Good luck :)
Blow the inside of the box and the game out.
Carefully re-insert the game. You may have to tweak it from side to side.
They just get kinda wore out. Plastic wears. Springs weaken.
Still can be great fun.
Not so complicated as a lot of the newer games. :cartman:

OMG LMAO. What memories. Blowing the dust out, slaping the tv and the nintendo.. the TV once and nintendo twice to get it work. Oh those were the days.

Dangit... I finally get bubble bobble out of my head and then you bring this up. I sold my nintendo awhile ago (big mistake)... now all I can do is stare at the cartridges and remember the good times.

I always have to give mine a thirty minute beating. Anyhow, you're better off just downloading ROMs. Just remember, it's illegal if you don't own the game, but, who listens to that. :rolleyes:

Aw shucks, you just get your screw drivers out and special tools, you take the unit apart, carefully remove the spring connector module, use a strong piece of wire with a hook on the end, bend the connectors out a bit and test by inserting a cartrage into the connector module, voila one working Nintendo, I should know I've got 3 *lol*

Those were the days....
I had mine up until about 3 years ago, when I moved out of my parents house and she sold my stuff...

You can still get Nintendo games at Funcoland. And they also buy and sell used games there as well.

http://www.funcoland.com

They also have physical stores as well... We had one where I lived in Michigan... None down here though...

I sold my playstation to my little brother for 50 bucks, and I still own all the games and it's still in my room. What a deal.

Funcoland is awesome. I like the 16 bit genesis better than the 8bit nintendo for gaming nostalgia. World Series 95 baby!

Don't you have to go back farther than '95 to qualify it for 'nostalgia' ?

IS there anyway (emulator..etc) to play these games on PC?

I've got that for sega game gear. My game gear is right beside my bed, good to make you sleepy. NBA Jam Tournament Edition is in there at the moment....

...All the stuff and tricks we had for the Nintendo, some great times spent on Mario Bros.

Man, I used to be the man in that game. The envy of all my cousins.

Go Sammy, go Sammy, Go!:D

Now I'm into more of the sports games. NFL2K1 is the BOMB!

Can't wait for NFL Fever though, or the XBOX for that matter.

Remember blow twice then push and turn side to side.;)
If that don't work push the cartridge down and add another cartidge on top.:D

By the way I still got my Nintendo in skeleton form somewhere in my closet. Any bids?

The emulator is called NESticle.

I don't think it works, I can check it though. But I was kidding about selling it.

I loved Ninja Gaiden. That was the greatest action game.
