You can use alcohol to clean them using swabs or an eraser if you can reach inside.


Yeah, dip a used toothbrush into isopropyl alcohol and scrub the contacts vigorously. Then let dry and scrub a little more with the dry toothbrush till the contacts become shiny again.

I opened the system and took some pics of the board and some model numbers. I'll post those tomorrow. Also, the famicoms cart connecter seems to be fused with the board. I was hoping to swap connecters with my yobo, but no luck I guess. Unless there is some screws Im missing or something.

Show the photos first because 133mhz knows a lot about this stuff and he might be able to help you out.

Let me know if there is a specific part I should be taking a picture of.

Also, this is the sticker that appears on most of my carts. Has anyone else seen this?

Haha. I have 2 Famiclones. One doesn't work, or at least I can't figure out how to make it work(It sometimes shows sprites from the game and upsidedown letters and numbers but that's it) and the other is PAL and still being mailed to me.

On a related topic, I got my Famicom from Variety Recycle Nippon today. Works flawlessly! I am excited to be done with my Yobo!
By the way! My Super Mario Bros 2 cart works flawlessly also!

Super Mario Bros 10 came in the mail too. :)

A Famiclone may seem like a cheap gift, unless you include good games and it doesn't look so shabby :P.
Besides, they're not that hard to come by, there's always somebody who imports them. Sometimes I see them in supermarkets and hardware stores. If not, smaller stores, specially the ones which import cheap stuff from China, they'll always have some Famiclone in stock.
