So I got this copy of Klax for the Sega Game Gear that was all dirty and stuff. The front of the cart looks like it has sand stuck on it (but that's probably not what it is). The guy at the store said the contacts were a little corroded, so he let me have it for free. Well, I finally found my Game Gear. After using rubbing alcohol and a q-tip, it still wasn't working, so I used the sharp end of a fingernail clipper (the part where you dig dirt from under your fingernails out) and tried scraping the contacts to get rid of this one little spot, and behold, it works most of the time now. Anyone know how rare this game is? Actually, my screen is brighter now than it was, too, which is weird. Now I can see most everything on it without tilting it to see the picture.
