- I don't normally read this newsgroup ...
-
- My kids Nintendo system is acting erratically. When you power it up, the
- red indicator light sometimes just blinks and the games will not start up.
- It will start blinking even before you insert the cartridge.
-
- If you go through the cycle of turning the system off or reinserting the
- cartridge enough times, it will eventually work.
-
- Does the system's cartridge contacts need cleaned or is this a more serious
- problem?
-
- Thanks for the help.
-
- Mike
