A question about my NES

[mutantllama]

Ok, so last week I bought a NES at the local game store. I got it working last week, and played all the games I had. But now, it never seems to work. All I get is a blue blinking screen. Is anyone here familiar with NES hardware or something?

 

[Burning In Hell]

Sunds like one of the jacks is not working properly.

 

[Burning In Hell]

Actually, now that I think more about it. Do you have the tv on the right input selection? I know when I play PS2 if I have the wrong input on, it is a blue screen.

Oh this brings back memories, the daily blowing of the NES. Have you tried blowing into the NES to get out the dust? Do the same with the games too.

Holy fuck, I totally forgot about blowing the NES. That's so funny.

 

[mutantllama]

Yeah, I blew on it multiple times. Also, it's only one cable, to the cable connector thingy.

But I'll try blowing on it more. Because last week this happened a bit and I blew on it, and it started to work.

Just keep blowing, & make sure you do it really hard to get all the gunk out. Just don't let it hit you in the face.

 

[mutantllama]

Yeah, blowing on it works. Got Iron Sword working.

What do you guys think of the Turbo Grafix 16 & the Sega Master System?? What about the Game Gear & Atati Lynx??

I had The Fucking Sega Master System with the 3D glasses. That was slap full of epic win. The Nintendo Virtual Boy was very good at fail, however.

I use to have to blow on mine pretty well, and then the game had to be placed perfectly in the slot for it to work. Try pushing the game in really tight, or loose. Pretty much just fuck around with it.

 

[The Heartbreak Kid]

Always have to blow that mother fucker.

 

[ShredHeadJHJ]

Hell yeah, blow that there mother fucker.

 

[Vilden]

Buy a new connector. Doesn't cost much.

Yeah. NES is pretty kickass and everything, but holy shit it's an unstable fucker.

 

[The Ozzman]

I still contend NES is the best gaming system ever

 

[Vilden]

Yeah. NES is pretty kickass and everything, but holy shit it's an unstable fucker.

Just get a new connector, with gold pins aand you wont have an unstable fucker anymore.

Or get the toploader model.

 

[mutantllama]

Yeah, maybe I'll get a new connector. How much will it cost?

 

[Vilden]

I have no idea, I got mine from a friend for free.

I just played some Gunsmoke for the first time in ages.
