Will only play factor 5 games. Nothing else works.

Tried playing my N64 today and nothing worked except star wars rogue squadron and battle for naboo. Both games are made by factor 5. Nothing else in my library works. I tried cleaning the pins on the cartridge with alcohol and a nail file. I did the same thing to the expansion pack. I tried sliding some paper in the consoles pins and still the only thing that works are those two games. I tried other games that require the expansion pack. Both banjo tooie and Majora's mask failed to work. I'd like to take it apart but I don't have that stupid security star bit to take it apart.

I had the same problem.. Only Mario worked sometimes and nothing else..

I put isopropyl on the game’s pins and jammed it in and out of the console a few times to clean the pins on the games.. Then they were actually working sometimes (1 out of 3 times, taking them out, jamming them back in..) Then I took the console apart and cleaned underneath the cartridge slot (it pulls straight off the motherboard) with a q tip and isopropyl. Lots of yellow gunk came off and it cleaned up nicely. Now all games work every time.

Hope it helps..

And yes, those security bits are so annoying. Do yourself a favor and get them for a couple bucks on amazon. They’re called GameBit.
