Here are 2 solutions: buy a new slot and replace the old one (beware of the chinoiserie that sometimes come with the clips even folded!) Or remove the slot and with a pointed object (eg needle) pry the clips to give them back a little bit of &quot;consistency&quot; when inserting the cartridge; the PATIENT work must be done on every single pin of the slot!<br \/><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xeD1wDL8i44\" width=\"374\" height=\"210\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>In practice, the purpose is to &quot;tighten&quot; the space where the cartridge connector will fit, which has loosened over time (especially if you have left the console with a cartridge inside for years!).<\/p><h4>FLASHING RED LIGHT<\/h4><p>This problem appears to be due to a faulty CIC (Region Protection Chip); to solve it, the PIN4 of the CIC must be raised or cut (or other).<br \/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/nes_cic.jpg\" \/><br \/>The problem could also be given by a damaged \/ worn connector as for the white screen problem (it depends on the pins that do not make good contact).<\/p><h4>ADAPTERS FROM 72 to 60 PINs<\/h4><p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/nes_adapter.jpg\" \/><br \/>In order to use Famicom cartridges (NES jappo) in the NES as we know it, an adapter is required; you can find an article about it HERE * copy article from https:\/\/www.reboot.ms\/forum\/threads\/adattatori-72-60-pin-nes-famicom-attention.8806\/*.<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h4>JOYPAD THAT STOPS WORKING<\/h4><p>Does your joypad, perhaps kept for years in the garage, no longer work?
