Keep your games clean and keep your system clean and you'll have a well running NES, says I. ]]>

5. Try not to leave games in the system when not in use


It's funny, I've had to tell my son more than once not to leave the games in the system. I don't let him play it without supervision now, because he's so used to just leaving the games inside of a system (ie Xbox360, Xbox, etc). So new gen, he gets no supervision when using them. But old school gaming he needs supervision hehe ]]>

1. Cut the lock out
2. Get rid of extra shielding
3. Bend back the pins
4. Leave games up in the up position
5. Try not to leave games in the system when not in use

Thats just me though. Just out of curiosity, why do you want to have the cart in the down position? ]]>

Edit: Cutting the lockout chip doesn't seem to have helped (was worth a shot, has helped in the past!) ]]>
