    I don’t know what this gif is about; blowing in cartridges was an NES thing, not an SNES thing.

      Blow on a cartridge was a cartridge thing. The idea being to blow dust off the connector pins, the console itself is irrelevant.

        Of all the consoles I ever owned or played at other people’s houses, the NES was the only one anybody ever blew on.

        My lived experience trumps anything you can try to claim. You lose; good day sir!

      I’m with you - I never had problems with my SNES games starting, whereas having to re-insert NES games was common. If other people had problems with SNES games, I never heard about it.
