Can a cartridge be so dirty it stops the console from working? I was at my friends house and he wanted me to plug in majoras mask and it stopped working, but the red light comes on. It just doesn't play? |

If it is just Majoras Mask that is not working clean the cartridge with some cleaning alcohol. |

Get you an old t-shirt, a credit card, and some alcohol. Put the t-shirt over the card, put some alcohol on it and stick in down in the N64. Clean it out that way the best you can. It may take a few times, but try to get the dirt out. Good luck. |
