this right here is what made the game industry the constant COD and trophy/achievement shovel ware shit we know now
people need more patience in order to respect what they are doing...i dont want trophy's ever 5 min or FMV vids every 20 min nor do i want XP every kill all i want is a quality game with a quality story line
thanks to the industry going so commercial this generation i dont think i will EVER feel the same way about games as i used to and it makes me sad
not only have i restarted to PC games because consoles EULA/TOS's have gotten WAY out of hand but i am also reverting to classic games that provide the satisfaction i require in a game rather than the constant spoon fed BS today's games provide
Honestly, what does this have to do with a little "presentation 101"?

What pre-mid-90s games had lengthy intros? I can think of Final Fantasy V as starting a trend, at that was but one game at the tail of 1992, but not much otherwise.
I clean games with kits from Nintendo Repair Shop. It contains two solutions, a thick cleaning paste and a rinse (which is alcohol, not sure of the concentration). The kit comes with cloths to wipe down and remove the solution as well. I find there's never enough of these little cloths though, so I turn to q-tips after I run out. I've gotten a lot of finicky games to work perfectly this way and I now clean every used game as soon as I buy it. I've only owned two games that I was never able to resurrect, one of which was filled with SAND.
Can't say I've ever used window cleaner or an eraser. Sounds like the window cleaner method isn't too popular among Racketboy members though!
As long as it's clean, the T-Shirt isn't bad to use. Though using a Q-Tip will allow you to clean the pins without having to open the cart.
If you're using distilled water, it's not the worst thing in the world. You're still better off using rubbing alcohol. If you're using tap water, that's a different story all together.
I would recommend opening carts to do a full cleaning, as opposed to just cleaning the contacts. You'd be shocked to see how much filth I've seen caked onto the plastic inside of games. My copy of Earthbound had a dead fly inside of it.
