Hi all!

I have a Neo Geo 4 slot and a ton of carts.

My most recent purchases were Samuari Showdown 2 and 3.

All my carts work other than these SamSho carts. I've seen them work on other boards though!

The board just acts as if the the slot is empty.

The carts and the board are both totally clean. Other carts work in the same slots perfect.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
 
I stated the carts and board connectors are clean.

are clean or look clean.
what EXACTLY do you mean

my next move would be to blow some compressed air in there very careful like
could be some piece of unseen something could be in the way

good luck
 
Omg they are clean!



I think what people are getting at is the level of cleaning. Did you clean the cartridge contacts with alcohol on a q-tip or take the cartridge apart and use a pink pencil eraser on said contacts? The latter gets them very-to-totally clean. The former gets them sort-of-clean and can still cause problems. I speak from personal experience here. Just trying to see what you've done so far so we can go from there to help. :)

So, apparently I'm a total asshat...

The 2 different sellers of these games are honest and respected. Both told me the games were cleaned. They look cleaned!

You all were right. I opened them up, cleaned all the contacts, and they both came back to life.

I wanted to post this because I think it's important to admit when one is wrong...
