Member-Contributed Guide An awesome member of our community made this guide. Just put the screws in a little cup or something and set them off to the side for a minute. Now take your game cartridge, hold it together firmly, insert it into your SNES, and press the power switch.

If the game works, then congratulations! You've just restored one of your favorite SNES titles and you can look forward to years of flawless play from your like-new game.

Go screw the cartridge back together. It'll likely be many years before it ever needs cleaning again so long as you take care of it. Keep it in a case or one of those clear plastic dust covers whenever it's not in your SNES to minimize the effects of oxidation. In case it doesn't work, don't panic.

Some games can just be really stubborn about starting up even when their contacts look all polished and shiny.

Most of the time all it will need is a bit more cleaning to make it work. If it still refuses to play after additional cleaning, there are a few things that could be causing the problem:.

Mary and Joseph. Metal polish should only be used as THE last resort, once only and not at all if possible. Use some simple rubbing alcohol and a tiny cotton bud and gently clean each contact, using an up and down motion, NOT a side to side one and try not to get any on anything but the contacts. Really Brasso? It actually lightly Sands as you wipe and as it will look nice and shiny at first after about a week it will start to dull again and after repeated this step a few times or to bush abrasion.

You will have completely ruined you games for ever! So before you go giving horrible advice acting like a genius who discovered the holy grail. Do less rambling and more research!

I can vouch for this in many ways as also in my line of work we have to keep our brass on our uniform looking VERY polished and shiny!

The newbies always come in using brasso and have to polish there brass everyday before guard mount. I do mine about once every couple weeks!

Again just wow lol. I recently purchased a SNES at a local video game store. When I brought it home and tried the console out and tried 4 games out, 3 works but one didn't. I cleaned the contacts and connectors still no luck and having a blank screen. Game is Super Mario Allstars that doesn't work. I even used Brasso to clean the cart and no luck. Any suggestions is highly appreciated it. This actually restored my Super Mario World! However i really disliked having to read through all of the crap in order to find the steps to clean my game.

What does the "rattling" of a game cartridge do to I have a couple of rare game cartridges specifically SNES that rattle I have not read up on it and what causes it. So my first obvious question is what causes it and is there any way to correct it, and what does this do to the value.

Thank you.
