Dkoldies should take notes on this.

[@JackC92]

So true! Lets keep this comment at the top!

Sick burn.

[@EyesOfByes]

Agree

[@SLICK8116]

Why😅😂😢

[@brendanshannon7164]

Agreed

[@tinlunlau1]

My old high school had Silicon Graphics computers. Yet nobody knew how these things work. 😂😂😂

[@azneph611]

Destroy the like button if you blew into the cartridge to make it work LOL

[@bhill005]

Only the OGs know, haha

[@julianvillarreal1450]

Wow! Nice job on showing how to clean the games.

When a germaphobe cleans things

[@Stopper33]

The label on the rear may be able to be reset using heat, and slow diligence. It should be mentioned that N64 labels are not anywhere close to as resilient as NES/Gameboy/SNES labels. I've also found that a mild APC might work better than alcohol. Dry paper towel works well as a pin cleaner, as long as the pins aren't horrible. More of the videos would be great.

More videos like this, please. Seth is hilarious! xD

[@oldGAMERhulk36616]

Love your videos, keep up the great work.

[@Burnt_Gerbil]

Blowing into the cartridges did absolutely nothing, even though we all did. It was the act of removing and reinserting that scratched the corrosion off the terminal. 🤓

All of my N64 casettes look like this exactly, not to mention my N64 itself 💀

When blowing the cartridge isn't enough.

[@LaptopGun]

Best show on IGN.

[@_.ishfaq._]

This guy's overreaction to the dirt reminds me of children

[@SethMacy]

If you could have experienced what that cartridge smelled like you would have reacted similarly.

[@ffroggy51971]

Isbthe toolntonopwnbthe cartidges the same to open the console too?

[@chrisaranca1776]

So happens to a cartridge when it's battery dies, down it not function anymore??

[@kevbo3908]

So what's the battery for? Does it still work without a charge?

[@diegoarthur]

The battery is there to keep save data stored on a a volatile memory (flash memory was expensive). If the battery runs out or is removed, the data goes poof.

[@pampoovey6722]

You are so precious. Get over it. Fricking baby.

If anybody needs a video tutorial to find out how to clean a piece of plastic then he's seriously lost in life.

Nothing wrong with tips, especially passing it along to friends/loved ones👌🏼

It's more than just a piece of plastic. There's electronics inside that shell that could break if you're not careful.

Time it takes me to clean about 25 cartridges.

[@Dharoz]

Can’t make out anything when you zoom in, no offense but you need a decent camera for this.

[@jus2far1]

Stretching for content. 😂😂

[@Justin-Theobald]

Not really this is educating you on how to save money when video game cartridge prices are going through roof with games like Pokemon red on original gameboy being sold for £150 complete in box at CEX.
