   Dec 14, 2023 · I gave my carts a cleaning a couple months ago. I used Deoxit D5 and a toothbrush. Carts usually start fine on the 2600+. I only saw loading failed one time. There have been two or three times when there was no loading failed message, but I got a black screen after the Atari logo went away.

   It’s possible, but not always easy. I use some isopropyl alcohol or deoxit on the contacts and try to clean them by scraping them slightly with a small and thin flat screwdriver. Sometimes inserting, removing and reinserting the cartridge a few times does the trick.

   Do Atari carts work well with a 2600+?

   • Atari rocks! I've found that a significant percentage of my old carts that worked okay with my old 2600s will fail the first time or two I try them in the 2600+. Sometimes the carts will start working fine after a couple of inserts, yet other times they need a thorough cleaning of the contacts.

   What happens if you power cycle a 2600+?

   • If you power cycle the 2600+ off/on each time, then you have to wait for the 2600+ to boot up internally first before it starts to load the game. The hot swap works exactly as it sounds too. The 2600+ detects when you have a game in the console. If you pull it out while powered on, it will blank out and then go to game load failed.
