I have a 2 slot. It came with 2 games. Its well used and dirty in there. Both games have the vertical lines in and around the characters on the screen etc. This happens with both slots.
Per HardMVS, I got the electronics cleaner from Radio Shack. I opened the carts and cleaned the contacts. I opened the PCB case, removed the pcb and cleaned the contacts also removing all the tick turds etc from the board (gently) with a soft toothbrush.
All of the contacts had some small areas of residue. I used the eraser tip lightly but really did not remove all of the little lines on the contacts.
Re-assembled and turned on. Better but basically the same problem. Could there be something else or do I just have to suck it up and scrub those contacts? Also, how do I really clean the slots on the pcb?
