Looks brand new dude. What's the first game you fired up on it?

    Super Mario Bros 3 is the game I'm currently stress testing with, so far so good.

    And now you'll be pulling it towards you several times by pulling the cord during intense action, and you'll need to blow the cartridge to make the game work.

    Got fixes for both of those. 2.4ghz wireless controllers and properly cleaned games and connectors (pencil easer and ipa fixes 99% of issues with the games themselves, long term blowing is bad for the contacts).

    You can get an idea from this post and this one.

    Whoa is that what they looked like originally? It's been so long since I saw a new one...

    Do you do anything to improve the internal cartridge pin connectors? Or replace the part?

    I think I took my apart many years ago and used a small screwdriver to bend the pins out a bit. Every game worked perfectly after that for a while, but it's getting very touchy again...

    Looks like it’s been bleached too much or the white balance of the photo is way off. That’s definitely the wrong shade of NES gray.
