You know should know how to clean the inside of pretty much every cartridge game. If you don’t then please have a look back through our game cleaning guides. There is a pretty crucial part that is missing from these guides though. Several people have also pointed this out to me and I did not even realise it was missing. What was missing you might ask? How to clean the outside of games. The cartridge itself can get very dirty. It gets covered in sticker gunk, gum, dirt, etc. Luckily these cartridges are really easy to clean.
To clean the games you will need some q-tips, rubbing alcohol, and a razor blade.
1. Use the razor blade to get off all the big chunks of gunk.
2. Peel off any stickers on the game.
3. Now get dip the q-tip into some rubbing alcohol so it is slighty damp. Then use the q-tip to clean up any left over gunk. Be sure NOT to touch the label with the rubbing alcohol as it will eat the paint and make the label fade.
4. The only think left on the game at this point should be sticker residue. To clean this rub the q-tip over it. (be sure it has some rubbing alcohol on it) Now use your thumb and rub it off. You will have to press firmly to remove the gunk. It should come right off. If not use the q-tip again and try to rub it off again.
After you complete these steps your game should be perfectly clean.
