I just opened the console and cleaned the port and memory cartridges and it still won’t read.

I reckon the hardware is getting too old.

However, I prefer the original hardware without any fancy upgrades like a new operating system.

Pieces are also chipping off inside and I just had my Dad fix the power cable port by gluing a piece back on there to fix the power cable usage.

Thoughts?

Have you thought about getting a new one? /s

Not yet. I could potentially fix the console.
