  • Hi, I do console repairs and I’ve done a metric ton of NES. If that 72 pin connector was after market, it will probably wreck your games. If you still have your old connector, or if you can buy a used OEM connector, do the following:

    get at least 70 percent iso alcohol and a toothbrush and scrub the connector pins. Next, take the old connector, boil it in water for half an hour and let it cool. Reinstall and test. Don’t be afraid to hit the pins with iso again.

    This will save the vast majority of oem connectors, and your games will thank you.
