Changed 72 Pin Connector... Still blinking
I believe i did everything right. Is it the motherboard or what. Am I just going to have to get a new one?

Different game carts? Maybe some cleaner on those game cart contacts?
Hopefully not a defective connector, has been reported by other members.

Try cutting the lockout pin on the board. It will stop blinking. If the game still doesn't boot up chances are your pin connector isn't connected perfectly. They can be a pain sometimes.

Did you clean your games? The games are usually where most of the dirt is from people blowing (spitting) in them and they corrode. Then that transfers to the connector in the system and combines with the bending pin issue to cause grief.

Clean your damn carts before you dirty up your new pin connector!
