Tarvis Yeah, that's right. Administrator Nov 10, 2003 8,895 Mar 19, 2004 Admin #2 Use a rom. NES cartridges arent why you get yellow screens.. its how the system is designed. Its the system that needs the major cleaner (fix).

P Patrick Quite Senior Member Nov 10, 2003 2,380 Mar 21, 2004 #10 No. Just plain old Q-tips without anything on them. It worked for an N64, but an NES is a lot more unstable, and easier to break. I don't reccomend it.

C Coat Hanger Man Deku Sprout Apr 14, 2004 4 Apr 14, 2004 #14 you could contact the nintendo customer services on the back of one of your booklets. you know with the mario w/ screwdriver? maybe a cotton ball would work. I am not so certain.
