Taking a look at 3 more SNES consoles. In the end I'll even attempt to retrobrite and restore a very yellow console back to its original color.

So the grind in the heat sink is because two of the screws were stripped and one of them was near that grind in the heat sink. The shell and the metal shells were rusty when I got the system. The other stripped screw was near the reset switch. I did a lot of sanding on the metal parts. I apologize. But 2/3 isn't too bad. Btw thanks for the fixing of my Kirby game it works well.

I hope some of the parts in the broken motherboard will work out for you in the future hopefully? I had this idea about SNES CPU's and PPU's being made third party since they are to replace since they are custom made. Do you think it's possible to make them?

19:34 whats the point, some might ask... They don't manufacture these old consoles anymore, down the road there will eventually be more dead consoles/ cartridges *_(with the Nintendo leak and the cic chip's secret being cracked at least we can preserve the games forever using brand new cartridges)_* / controllers than working ones, people like you have a huge impact on the gaming preservation scene, console by console. I'm not a long time watcher of your channel, but I gotta say that as soon as I discovered it, I just binge watched every single one of your videos, so much so that it gave me the inspiration to get me a soldering kit and I'm now trying to bring a N64 back to life. Cheers, stay safe.

Awesome content have almost caught up with every video of yours. I just found my SNES in the basement, so have been going extra on retro content lol. It was covered in rust, and only booting into one game (NBA LIVE '97) with no controller response. Decided to clean the whole system top to bottom only to now have no power light and less frequent boots only into NBA still. I feel like there is hope, but at the same time I it was ALOT of rust.

I just snagged a cheap SNES off EBay and it was listed as broken. Cleaned it all up and even soldered a new LED in for the power and it works fairly well. Only issue is if I do much as touch the cartridge it freezes up. I tried cleaning the pins several times and I just can’t seem to figure out the issue. It’ll play games perfectly fine but getting a cart to start up or not freeze if I touch it is killing me. Any tips on cleaning the pins or bending them?
@PunkNDisorderlyGamer2 жыл бұрын
Replace the pin connector is the best option, second best option is to clean them with deoxit. Spray some deoxit on a small piece of cloth wrap it around an old credit card or ID card and give the pins a couple of passes. As far as bending the pins back to give them better grip, I’m not sure how to do that, I’ve never done that on SNES pins before.

Brass is amazing if used correctly. The problem is people use them to clean games and stuff and don't polish with a clean q tip after wards leaving a corrosive residue behind that can damage stuff or prevent contact between pins. But if you don't go crazy and polish it after the initial clean it works wonders. I don't recommend cleaning the same game every time you use it with it but for a game that has been sitting for 30 years it's a cheap quick way to restore the pins where other products won't come close to cleaning.
