What was y'all's go-to "trick" to get the nes to work when it would act up?


I remember using q tips and rubbing alcohol to clean the cartridges and stacking a cartridge on top of the other.

My dumb *** used to follow the directions on the back of the cartridge so I never thought of cleaning with alcohol. I did do the stacking of the carts and usually did the trick.

People still complaining about paying $59.99 but as you can see, we paid more back then when you take inflation into consideration. I think my Mom may have paid $60-$80 for SM64 when it released.

Looking back at that ad again, I believe those are all sale prices.

Yea Blanka and Guile using successive moves that the HUMAN has to take 2 seconds to charge up told me the CPU had an unfair advantage.

Never even thought about taking inflation into consideration. I remember my grandmother paying $80 for SMB3 from Sears.

Paid $99 (Canadian) plus tax for WWF WM 2000 and No Mercy on day one when they dropped.

That said it does feel like a steal when compared to those discounted NES & SNES game prices.

MK 2 AI is worse.

SNK bosses take the cake IMO for most unfair AI, but MK could be annoying too.

DAMN I remember mom refusing to buy me a NES because they were so expensive. She eventually traded some stuff we didn't want for one. Confused how the NES and SNES were the same price, seems like bad business.

Monopoly on NES for $47. Blatant robbery.

 

[you go boy]

Following that thought imagine the fool who chose the NES over the SNES if they both were the same price.
