I've literally cleaned hundreds of original 8-bit Nintendo games and have learned a good number of cleaning and repair methods from fellow gamers, collectors, pawn shop owners, etc. This guide demonstrates some super simple, easy-to-use strategies for cleaning the outside of your NES games.

Excellent cleanup job! What urks me is when previous owners carve their initials or name on a controller or gamepak.

Nothing works like Deoxit.... Awsome stuff for all game carts and counsels.

Great tip! :)

Any techniques for yellowing? Since it's grey would bleach just fuck it all up? That retro bright stuff maybe?

@TheJrerick 12 лет назад

does the magic eraser trick smooth out the slight texture that the grey casings have?

@happyoldMEN If a dry q-tip is taking off the paint, then it sounds like you have an especially sensitive game. I'm not sure what to recommend if even a dry soft item like a q-tip takes the paint off.

Good tips! Thanks man! Also instead of goo be gone on the glue try 99% isopropyl/rubbing alcohol, works just as good or better, or maybe even your 70% will work too!

@happyoldMEN Bummer on that one. Yeah, it's good to remember that gold NES cartridges are simply painted, so solvents or aggressive cleaners will take the finish off. I'd stick with Windex for gold cartridges.

Hay my nes is not reding my games can you make.a vid on how to clean the 72 pin

@VideoGameMuseum 12 лет назад

Nope, I'm guessing that texture is part of the plastic itsels, and it doesn't seems to be affected. Good luck with your cleaning and happy retro gaming!

@VideoGameMuseumCom NVM my mistake, turned out I was just rubbing a spot that was already missing a small amount of paint and I stopped immediately in fear of damaging it further. So I guess the cloth with Windex would be OK. Worst case scenario, I have some gold spray paint...

@happyoldMEN 12 лет назад

@VideoGameMuseumCom So Windex on a cloth for the exterior is safe? Because I even rubbed it with a dry Q-Tip and that damn paint was coming off.

I want to clean my Zelda 2 game but when I use the eraser, the gold paint comes off!

@VideoGameMuseum 12 лет назад

Ha ha! I'll work on that for future videos. :)
