So I got the right GameBit screwdriver to open the Toploader NES I got to clean it inside, and as I suspected, It'd been a roach nest one time. No live activity, but dead bugs and dried bug 'dirt'  :angry:. Cleaned it out, gave the exterior another clean and bam, much better. And sounds less like a cockroach maraca when you shake it.  :tongue:

 

Also no April Fools jokes. Those are lame.
