--- Quote from: soera on December 05, 2013, 02:56:32 pm ---Is there any brown sauce in the system? If no, then its worth salvaging! Just take it outside and get a can of compressed air and blow the thing out then reassemble it. As far as pulling the games out of underwear to sell them ... I have to try that myself now. --- End quote --- Brown sauce is salvageable, too. I just got a copy of OutRun with some mysterious brown sauce dried onto it. A little rubbing alcohol and a paper towel took it right off. Anything can clean up well, if you take the time. I would have with the PS1. The $20 spent for another one, could have been spent on a game for the PS1. I would have taken it outside to do it, though. No need to risk spreading cockroach eggs in your house. |

Alcohol may wipe off some stuff, but it won't get rid of everything... |

;D This has been hillarious! Here goes the brown sauce again lol. The brown sauce will never die will it :) My ATari 2600 that came in, only had one minny spider web in it and a little dirt. That was fine. I took it apart and cleaned till like new. Same for my Famicom. Famicom only had a few dust balls in it. Clean as new. But the playstation just about made me threw up. I can't handle it had to get rid of it. As a kid, we lived in the projects and had roaches everywhere! Disgusting! I just cannot go back to that. |
