| NES Fix Permanent? |
| (1/4) > >> |
| mariocaseman:
So I have seen many people offer to "fix" the original toaster model of the NES by putting in a new 72-pin connector. I don't know what that means exactly, but does anyone know if that is a PERMANENT fix? If I have that done, will my toaster-oven NES operate flawlessly like my Top-Loader NES forever? No blinking screens and no freezing during games? |

Nope. The new part will probably wear out eventually too. But if you use clean carts you probably don't have to worry for years. |

But my top-loader has been going strong since 1993. Why is the fix not permanent? |
