The before pictures have a yellower light in general but I think it's clear this thing was sun-baked and mud-caked.

My process is nothing fancy. I let the case soak in warm water and soap for a bit and then give it a good brushing. It then sits for a few hours in a small plastic container with some cheap UV lights and aluminum foil and about a liter of 12% hydrogen peroxide (which may be reused!).

Oh my god, this was an absolute rush, it took me a good around maybe 6-7 months to do it, but I finally did it! I beat one of the hardest video game bosses ever, and boy does it feel amazing! This was an absolutely incredible classic game made by Nintendo and I’m glad that I finally completed that love by completing the hulking goliath that is… Mike Tyson!

So I'm an avid gamer, I love collecting and playing games, like most of us.

My wife is also a gamer but nowhere near as fanatical as myself, so I thought.

Earlier this year she said she had a few NES Games stored away along with her original NES console, so I asked if she could find them, thinking that they would be loose and in bad condition .

When she pulled them out of the cupboard I couldn't believe my eyes.

We've lived together for a long time but I've never seen her NES as she moved it in while I was at work and put it away in the cupboard not thinking anything of it and never mentioned it until earlier this year.

I am a very lucky man 😁

My dad bought this for me when I was 4 years old (1987) not sure what year it came out but this is an OG. Wish they still had the original box. How would you rate my games? We didn’t have a lot of cash so we had to make the best of it
