"When I was a kid, we had to blow on the games to make them work."

Darth Revan is watching you.
The other day while I was walking past customer support in WalMart, I noticed that a kid was returning a video game. When the employee asked what was wrong with it, the kid replied "It wouldn't play in my PlayStation." As I continued with my shopping, I couldn't let that go. I started thinking, "I never had to return a game when I was little, It either worked, or I blew on it and it worked after that." Wouldn't life be so much easier if all you had to do was blow on a game to make it work? :D
 
i tried that with disc-based games...not as effective.

and digital distributions? PAH, you could blow on it with the wind force equivalent to that of a cat 5 hurricane......nothing.
 
Hah, did you get the thread name from that Facebook group with the same name? :lol Pretty clever...but yeah, I remember that...unfortunately, so games still take FOREVER to get to work that way. :lol

Actually, yes, :p But I thought it would make a pretty nice name for the thread.
 
They say it's bad to blow on games because tiny particles of saliva get in there and rust over time. I say, tell that to the hundreds of NES games that only worked if you blew on them! Although actually, I am sure the q-tip and rubbing alcohol thing would have worked just fine but we were too lazy.
