Picked this up today:  Was excited because I thought I could play SMS games on the go! However I've cleaned all the contacts for the GG and MS side on it but it either gets power to the GG and powers down, or the screen just stays blank. I've tried removing the SMS cart then turning the GG on but that just shows a blank screen. My GG has been recapped recently and works just fine. Is the Master Gear knackered? |

Check your SMS carts are nice n clean that would help.
How did you clean the master gear?
I have one and it can be fussy about certain games, ghouls n ghosts works fine but secret command dose not.

I used isopropryl on the contacts of the device and carts. Don't even put games in my systems without using that stuff first  I tried several games just in case but doesn't make any difference. The games I tried were: Secret Command Bank Panic Sonic 2 Alex Kidd in Shinobi World Maybe I've been really unlucky and picked all the titles that wouldn't work with it anyway! |

I would have thought sonic 2 would've been OK I will check mine to see.

The only other thing I could think it being down to is my GG. It's not 100% on most carts and I just wonder if the contacts won't take it. Some games require several insertions before it works.

I had many game gears and master gears.
I recognize the problem.
Do not wigle or stress the master gear in your GG.
A good blow in the slot of your GG is the solution.
Good luck.

Don't blow on it..Use a Q-tip on it, Make sure it's really clean on both the GG and the Master Gear
