i think i killed my nintendo!

well, after getting the nes and enjoying it, it had the
blinking problem, so me and my bro (actually, i like didnt
help out at all) but we opened up the nes to replace the 72
pin connector. there were a few problems while replacing it,
but now the nintendo doesnt work at all. weve readjusted and
we cleaned a game to test it out with and it didnt work.
anyone know what the problem could be and if we have
indeed... killed my nintendo

Mine has that same blinking problem where the power switches
on and off like a metronome.

"anyone know what the problem could be"

Yup. You tried to play "mr fix it" and raped your nes in the
process.

Buy a dreamcast and burn the emulator disk with like 1000+
nes games on it.

no tridenti, the nes is clearly better than the gc. it's a
classic

I haven't nothing against nes, it is Nintendo history, i
like it. Is useless say.. GameCube has better games and
graphics etc.. than nes..

the graphics and games are not the point. for the time it
was amazing. for now, the gamecube is kinda average.

you probably left the 72 pin connector hovering before you
screwed it down, you have to unscrew it, and shift it about
untill its completely flush with the circuit board

The 72 pin connecter could very well be the problem as they
go bad in about a decade. You can buy nes's with these
connecters already replaced on ebay (that's what I did and
it works like new). Also the games are very often the
problem. Get q-tips and put rubbing alchohol on them, then
scrub the metal connection areas inside the games. This has
created like-new games for me time and time again from games
that never played (works on genesis, nes, snes, gameboy etc)

Last time I tried my SNES it didn't work -- I have no idea
-- it worked fine last time I dusted it off and nothing has
been done to it in the interim -- if it really fails to work
again I'll be grievously dismayed.

i used to have two nessss'is but now i have one. they both
worked fine. the occasional blow into the cartridge and then
the deck followed by a hefty whack always sorts out any
problems.

yeah. the connector is flush. it might be in the wrong way
or something i dunno. maybe we have just raped it, but we
cant really see what went wrong.
opening up the nintendo and seeing how it works really
proves what a DUMB design it is...
long love nes!!! theyre just bombared with so many classics
and awesome titles im saddened to see people are saying the
gamecube is better than it (which i reckon only has like, i
dunno, 2 worthwhile games?)
