[Bobdolewashere]

dumbest poll of ever.

The best way to fix it is to freeze the cart overnight then plunge it into a bowl of boiling water (make sure you spread some mustard on the contacts beforehand).

If that doesn't work, then slowly simmer it for 20 minutes in beef stock.

I am guessing you're playing the PAL cart on an NTSC system (either with a disabled NES-10 chip or on a top loader)?

There is no fix.

there should be a 3rd poll option for "get a PAL NES and a 50hz compatible TV"

just, really don't forget the mustard and you should be fine.  Let us know!

Famicom version is NTSC with super sound.  Get that.

There's two different PAL NES's that are incompatible with one another. There's a PAL A and a PAL B NES.

Mr. Gimmick is a PAL B cart

haha why would they do that?

I had the same problem, but just played through it anyway.
