Half the time you couldn't get the cartridges to read on the machine (before we now know how to pull them apart and if needed replace the whole assembly). I didn't hear any one saying they were never going to play the NES ever again back in those days. You sent your machine in for service or bought a new one - or both. Oh and don't get me started on the Dreamcast too! |
The NES did have a lot of problems with reading cartridges. However, if you always put your cartridges in a certain way, and kept the connectors clean, it would generally work. I have never heard of any of my friends having serious problems with their NES. Not nearly the problems people seem to be having this generation (once again, not speaking specifically of xbox360).
