SleepinqZzz 10/23/2022 11:02 pm 282

OKAY SO IM PANICKIGN RRLY ABT THIS RN BECAUSE I HAD A BUNCH OF PROGRESS DONE ON MY SAVE BUT MY OCARINA OF TIME CARTRIDGE STOPPED WORKING

here’s what i’ve tried so far

- blowing into the cartridge

- blowing into the 3ds

- restarting 3ds

- cleaning cartridge with wet wash cloth (pat dry)

- cleaning cartridge tray in 3ds with wet q-tip (then dried with other q-tip)

- cleaning cartridge with diluted rubbing alcohol (nintendo forums okayed it)

any ideas on how to fix it? would gamestop be able to do anything? my cartridge is from 2011 and so is my ds

ive gotten close to that with some of mine, but usually forcing it into th DS a little harder seems to work? if thats not working for u then yeah id see if gamestop could do somethign, if not then it might just be too old/damaged to read nowkao sad taht would suck though so i hope it works soon
