I understand a lot of topics have been made before, but it seems not all of my games are compatible with my version of Game Genie. I used rubbing alcohol and the like to clean the contacts of my cartridge (Super Star Wars) before inserting it into the genie. I did the same with the genie. I get to the code screen and what not, and the genie works fine, but when im done entering my codes (found on gamegenie.com) the screen just cuts to black, and never works. Thinking it might be my cartridge, i took apart my game genie to take the little lock flap off (my Super Star Wars cartridge has a little slot that the genie locks onto instead of the big bottom-flap)
Game genie loads, still doesnt work. This Game Genie i had since i was a kid, so i have the book for it. Tried one of the games in the book (Top Gear). Didnt check to see if the codes were working(They worked a few months back on a different game anyways) but the game at least boots. Even without codes, Star Wars didnt boot.
Noticed that my genie was version 1.0, rev 5 i believe...any ideas?
