I scored a nice deal on Facebook of a couple dodgy original Nintendo Entertainment System units, and small NES Collection with some decent games. I was determined to get these OG NES systems going and after trying a bunch of stuff that didn't work, I tried making a shim to keep the carts from going too far back and pushing the pins too far. That combined with raising the pins up a little with a dental tool seems to really have done the trick.


I kind of can't believe it actually worked as well as it did lol. If you'd be interested in seeing more retro gaming or retro tech videos, let me know in the comments - thanks for watching!
