Found this channel from Tik Tok. Its so satisfying!!

I swapped it out but it still doesn't work

I followed your steps and it still didn't work and I didn't have a replacement so I looked inside and could see a bent pin so I used a little needle thing to poke inside and bend it back and it worked! Try this before buying replacement

Was VGR there? Where is the wet bandits tag?

Lol, I see you also have the loot crate robocop shirt :)

What do u do when the game won’t turn on but only make a pop noise ?

I have the same issue but a new cartridge reader produced the same results. I think there's some bent pins where the ribbon cables goes in. How would you go about fixing bent pins in that area?

If you have any Nintendo’s around that you have fixed and doing nothing with it. Please keep me in mind and respond to this message. I want a Nintendo switch but don’t have the money. Thanks
