Title: NES/SNES Cartridge Cleaning kits?
Post by: shawndude82 on August 12, 2020, 03:12:36 pm
Can anyone recommend a good one to clean out cartridges with, for deep cleaning I mean?  (I already have the screwdriver) ;)

I'd like to have one handy for those "just in case" moments.

I think the 1up card is pretty good, no?

I have an official brand Nintendo cleaning kit for the SNES that works pretty well.

This is the best cartridge cleaning kit for those who can open their cartridge shells:

I'm 100% serious. Rubbing a pink eraser on the cartridge pins is the best way to clean any game that isn't corroded or in some other way damaged. Follow it up with rubbing alcohol and a Q-Tip if you want.
