As if I needed any more evidence that Korone is a true gamer
Yeah, that's an old school gamer, right there.
Well her pa really influenced her
No, she's a boomer
@@KABLAMMATS She is probably a millenial. I would guess early 30s.
@@markusburstrom3485 At what point does the boomer generation end and the millennial one begins? I’m still confused about that…
Towa: *witnesses the lost ancient art of blowing into a video game cartridge to get the dust out*
Towa: Funniest shit i seen fr
Towa: witnesses the lost ancient art of blowing
I remember the times... Then using paper and alcohol.
@iKilleas I used a airblower from a car wheel mini compressor 😂
The purpose of blowing is not to remove dust. The reason it works, is the metal contacts oxidize over time which degrades the electrical connection. When you blow you end up releasing moisture from your mouth into the contacts which temporarily increases the conductivity of the contacts. It's a bad long term solution, really need to clean the contacts with alcohol and make sure the insertion system of the console doesn't have worn / bent out of place pins which causes the poor contact in the first place.
Wait till she see the ancient of kicking the tv to work
I love that Korone's troubleshooting for any NES performance issues are just an automatic muscle memory response. Those gaming roots go to the very core in a way that cannot be denied.
dont forget the concussive maintenance on the tv and at times the console
@@gampie13hit the tv at 45 degrees
😂
Me too, just depending on both devices and any cases
@@gampie13 It's the first step before the arduous process of moving the massive CRT far enough to try reseating the cables.
@@tokinosoda12thapostleofthe12 Don't forget to move the Antenna too.
It just dawned on me, that no children born these days, will ever know the power of blowing into a video game cartridge.
That and opening a game case to play something only to find the wrong game in there. Which proceeds you to playing a game of "where the hell do you belong!!"
Or accidentally plugging in the wrong way tri-color cable in the TV. You were lucky if the TV holes were color coded too. 🤣 God I hated that, cause I had to unplug everything otherwise the old cable TV didn't work watching regular television channels
@@claouslive Nah, that still happens, especially to my niece and nephew with their Switch cartridges. They'll bring a case over to our house, and end up having the wrong game in it, lol.
@@Xtoxinlolinecronomicon don't forget about the magical "antenna/coaxial switch"
@@claouslive Hahahaha true, true!
They had instructions to not blow on the cartridge back then BUT IT WORKED.
@@CartoonHangout BUT IT WORKED. Note the caps lol.
@@CartoonHangoutthe pins are made of Copper so they doesn't corrode
@@lancelnce Wtf? Copper absolutely does corrode.
@@gathenhielm9977 the Thing they put on cartridge pins does not corrode that's what I'm saying. Unless it's a pireted cartridge
@@lancelnce A quick google image search of "game cartridge corrosion" instantly proves you wrong.
Korone proving she's a true retro gamer by acknowledging that you shouldn't blow into the cartridge but doing it anyways.
Old habits die hard.
It can't be helped if it makes the games run through making blowing.
@@linusgustafsson2629 It _can_ be helped. Use Q-tips with a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol on them to clean the contacts.
On the NES specifically, it's not rare for some deformation to have happened on both the cartridge connectors and the cartridge slot connectors on the console itself, this can be fixed by carefully tweaking them back into proper shape, or in the worst of cases, replacing them entirely.
@@0neDoomedSpaceMarine : For the classic NES, some sort of replacement is most desirable. The actual connector is part of the problem, as the friction of cartridge insertion is too low to reliably remove the naturally building oxides- remember, Earth's oxygen is by nature a very slow fire, and that has it's costs.
Also, apparently the plastic of the connector degrades. Best to buckle down and prepare before it stops entirely.
@@absalomdraconis You don't usually need to replace the connectors entirely.
The major issue with the NES is that it has a really unconventional cartridge port which uses that tilting elevator setup, which works, but it's really easy to accidentally apply lateral leverage on the connectors, especially when you're a little kid who don't know that's a problem.
You can fix the vast majority of NES consoles with connection problems by cleaning the connectors, and then carefully reshaping the pins. After that, it's just a matter of being a bit more gentle and conscious with handling, and then maybe cleaning the contacts every few years or so.
There did also exist some kits which replaced the elevator mechanism itself with essentially a straight slot, but those were only produced in limited numbers I think. You also don't really need them.
The original Japanese Famicom had a conventional toploading slot, so this is virtually never a problem outside of North America and Western Europe, nor for any other console with a normal toploading slot (like the NES toploader). All you need to do there is occasionally clean the contacts.
Steps to fixing a cartridge:
1. Blow on the cartridge
2. Blow on the console
3. Turn the console upside down
4. balance it on the sides
5. replug cables
You have to do it in that order
You forgot the last resort:
- Use Q-tip and alcohol
My ps1 only read disks properly when it was upside down. Then it stopped reading disks altogether and I bought the slim version. But in this state it worked for almost 3 years.
@@ivd0s My friend's C64 wouldn't load games unless there was a blanket on top of the tape deck.
I don't remember 3 and 4
@@kylewoodowens4488 3 and 4 worked for CD consoles.
Towa is too young to know the ritual of blowing on the cartridges to make them work.
She is in her mid 20s, is just that she always preferred playing on PC than having consoles for what she talked before holo.
@@TheRatedOniChannel I mean, Korone turns 40 this year so she does have more experience of the old rituals lol
or maybe she was not a gamer back then.
@@MikeHoney-qy6nlHer and Watame are the oldest followed by Botan I think.
@@MikeHoney-qy6nl It is pretty unlikely she's 40 but more closer to very late 20s to early 30s. I know about the stuff before the Korone character but I swear it's been all hearsay and nobody's been able to provide a clip. I say this because there is an older clip of Korone (in-character) saying she was still quite young when the PSP came out and her father playing it
Even I know to do the old cartridge blowing trick and I was born in '93 which was just at about the tail-end of cartridge use and transition to CDs
Hey, don't judge her Towa-sama! Doing that on cartridges works for everyone when the games are not working, you know?
The internet says it's a myth, but experience says otherwise.
@@remiremiremi111For sure. I can't count the number of times this worked on me. Just a bit of shaking and blowing air to remove "dust" works like a charm lmao.
Fun times.
yeah its weird, even the back of some carts literally tell you to not blow them, but 9 times out of 10 that little blow makes it work like factory new
Well the cartridge is dirty, you're just cleaning it "incorrectly" over time the saliva will eventually damage something in some time later, when? Who knows
When Towa went "EH??!" at the revelation that a system existed before the SNES, I felt the wrinkles form on my face.
I was binge watching Bae's and Biboo's zoomer moments but ofc, it happens in the JP side of things. It's amazing (and sad) that towa only just know the SNES (or Super Famicom) had a predecessor..
She could've just know from the games alone but never really knew where it was from. Not to give Towa any shade of anything, I like her too.. but yeah I'm turning to dust myself
There's videos out there of those canny Mr. Incredible getting older and older based on what's your first game in a franchise.
For Megaten/Persona, the player was older than the big bang before Shin Megami Tensei III gets mentioned
Towa: Korone, do the thing!
Kowone: o3o ~fu!
Ah, seems like Korone was giving Towa the full retro gaming experience
This needs to be animated XD
Yes!
Komainu, we need you!
Agree
THIS. 😂
She blew in the cartridge twice and blew on the console slot once.
Then she lightly dropped the console on her carpet and then it worked.
The ancient ritual was observed. The Machine Spirit is pleased this day. The only way this could be any better is if she brought out the sacred oils.
Praise be to the Omnissiah!
Confirmed. The machine spirit of the cartridge is a toddler that love being raspberried.
*unholy screeching to the Omnissiah*
Speaking of getting phyiscal with cartridges, Ko'one needs to show Towa what happens when you tilt the cartridge for Zelda or Mario 64.
Or Goldeneye.
*Geddan intensifies*
Or James Bond Jr. 🤣 sometimes F-Zero too
nice pfp, i used to use the exact pic on somewhere else
@@PenguinLord10 Copyright bots are still on the prowl for that. I learned that the hard way years ago.
@@Supperdude9 a lot of vocaloid and touhou song is claimed by some random fake artists to this day, it's crazy
For people wondering, Korone also have the Sega Megadrive/Genesis, Sega Saturn, TurboGrafx mini, Dreamcast, every Playstation console, N64, and Gamecube. She plays these games via the original console as much as possible even if they're noisy (like the Dreamcast stream where it was whirring loudly).
I didn't knew they are allowed to use emulators 😮
@@lancelnceOficial PC versions or new consoles releases
@@lancelnce Official ones. Game compilations also.
Didn't she ended up playing a gba game with tilt controls on the gamecube? like literally moving the whole console? 🤣
@@AthosJosue yes
Blowing into a cartridge, cleaning an old disc by exhaling hot air onto it and wiping it with your shirt, condensed air on keyboard, praying to your Xbox 360/PS3 to hopefully magically fix the Red Ring of Deth/Yellow Light of Deth, fiddling with PC parts because you swore you put the memory in just right, but somehow now it's slightly off angle, cardboard grade microphone, aim always driftin' due to stick drift because you play enjoy to break a controller in less than a week
These, and many more, are true trials that must be passed by one to become a true Gamer.
And Korone 100% has passed them all.
Stick drift is nothing compared to trying to play Atari games with that piece of shit joystick that would sometimes just not work in one direction....imagine trying to play Pacman, but you can't turn right, lol.
It took me years and years of daily gaming to get stick drift on my first DS3.
> aim always driftin' due to stick drift
Mario Party 1, or, how I destroyed all my controllers and friendships
@@theoya Mario Party 1 gave many a children stigmata. There was even a class action lawsuit.
Ancient, ancient IBM PC ritual... avoiding the first slot because cards worked weird there.
Towa does not know the old ways.
The children do not know of the struggles of their forebearers.
(We didn't know any better back then, lol)
hindsight i reckon its probably just "the good ol'have you tried restarting it" as with any tech and the blowing was just a placebo
@@namo2403dust interference is a real thing
@@priestesslucy3299 yeah but how often is it really a malfunction due to specifically dust and not any other reason such as perhaps a faulty cartridge during production, a copper pin being bent, a bug during coding, snes overheating or a mini power outage anything along those lines ya know, its not like tech and quality control was the same standard as what we have today
@@priestesslucy3299 it theoretically could be, but usually isn't. Especially on a game that's been in and out of a system in the last, like, year. Blowing on the cartridge was just glorified reseating of the cartridge pins.
@@priestesslucy3299 No, it really wasn't. That's why the contactors were so bloody huge on the cartridges and console.
Even included the classic "guest asks for something and Korone's footsteps thud into the distance" maneuver.
"Why do you have all this?"
Because she has realdealitus.
I love Korone so fucking much, to this day I am forever grateful to her for being my introduction into Vtubers.
I love how she enjoy retro games, and even blows on the cartridge's out of habit lol Towa witnessing it for the first time, and just laughing about it was super cute to me
This. I started watching Hololive in early 2020 thanks to Korone! I still remember all her legendary memes like my second favorite "Water in the fire?! Why?! Water in the fire?! WHY?! I notto understando", "small small turtle house" (basically both her English-only Super Mario Bros streams were goldmine of memes), "Eekum bokum", and my favorite "I'm die, thank you forever" from Calli-Korone collab about defusing bombs. Now, I cherish and adore FuwaMoco, so my JP oshi is Korone (unfortunately I do not know Japanese), but my EN oshi are FuwaMoco. I can't wait for the HoloCerberus collab!
as a kid who grew up playing with my three other siblings fighting over the controller of the NES. that simple blowing off the cartridge brings so much memories 😆
Korone use the ascenstral method for the cartridges works
Fuwamoco would absolutely have a blast if she visits Korone’s house .
Koro-san casting the classic magic to revive a SNES Cartridge
towa: don't blow the cartridge!
me, korone and many nes/snes enjoyers: I MUST.
Can't believe Korone just made Towa cry in front of thousands people 😢
First Flare, now Towa
Korone is a menace and should be stopped!
"Why do you have all of this?"
Because she's cultured.
The fact from Towa's prospective
Kronone jumped out of her gamer chair
Yanked the game out from the console in true gamer rage
And blew into it hoping to revive it
Fucken true gamer
She DIDN'T EVEN TURN IT OFF just ripped out the live cartridge. And then the game started glitching out even stranger, like "ioh the music started again, why" Not just her that found it hilarious.
Gaming CPR
Korone being Korone and insane amounts of hearty laughs from Towa
that stream was amazing
Thanks for the great clips as usual Jshay
Any moment with Towa laughing her head off is just glorious. Thank you for this moment!
The memory of blowing into cartridges had me instinctively swallowing my spit to dry my mouth.
The ancient techniques invoke muscle memory that puts Pavlovian responses to shame.
Pavlov's Korone
Korone is so based.
While I don't miss all the problems cartridges had, I do miss a simpler time where some air was enough to seemingly fix most issues with our games.
I love how Korone is flexing her famicom at the end.
I adore the fact that, despite everyone using emulators for their old games, Korone still uses actual hardware from ancient times.
I'll never not have respect for this dog, she's so cool.
Props for using a Chrono Trigger cartridge. A plus choice.
What about those?
Blowing into a nintendo cartridge.
I do that to my famicom, AND EVERY GAME BOY CARTRIDGE I EVER OWNED.
The old texts said if you have trouble with a game cartridge you have to blow hard to make the evil go away
BUT IT'S TRADITION!!!
Korone is indeed a true gamer
Korone knows the Old Magicks 😂
Towa-sama this is something we have been doing for a long time
First of all, Towa laughed so hard at Ollie's charged rifle joke. Second of all, she laughed so hard at Kaela's hilarious talk to ghost in Phasmophobia. And now, she laughed so hard at Korone blowing the cartridge
TSKR for our ears 🙏🥰
Korone preserving the lost magics.
Good to see korone knowing the old ways
Giving me flashbacks to my Atari and SEGA Genesis days. Or even waiting with crossed fingers hoping my PS2 would proceed past the boot up screen.
PS1 too, and blow on memory card
How funny this whole sequence was, Korone demonstrated once again what a true gamer she is.Hopefully one day someone will make an animation of this moment www
"Towa don´t look". As sometimes is not just blowing the cartridge 👅
Yo that's pretty cool. They released a 20th anniversary cartridge, it even says 2017 on the start menu. It's on NSO, but if Korone wasn't a retro gamer, or this collectors item didn't exist, this fantastic moment never woulda happened ww
No matter what everyone says, if it works, it works 😂Its amazing that she's streaming gameplay from the classic console.
Hololive members aren't allowed to use emulators, so any game they play is on original hardware. (Throwback to that stream where Miko brought her playstation but it was a PS4 instead of the PS3 they needed, so she ran out last second to buy a PS3.) I'm guessing Korone has a huge console collection!
If you have the money and brains it's not very hard, can do it much better quality than korones cheap composite to HDMI box, using a retrotink, ossc or framemeister.
@@Zanpaa I think she does, there was a stream where she talked about it, I think the xboxes are some of the consoles she wanted but couldn't get, but she's played on famicom, super famicom, N64 (banjo), playstation (digimon world), playstation 2, playstation 3 (siren), playstation 4 (crash bandicoot 4) , sega saturn (dropped it on a getting over it stream 😅).
On PS2 I think she played the aniki game in a competition against marine
It's what you have to do for old games! Lol
I'm suddenly blown away to the past. Good times trying to get my NES to work.
Korone respects the Ancient customs of the Gamer
feeling extremely blessed to have heard that much towa laughter today.
There are true gamers everywhere, but some are truer than others.
Korone is a real one.
Sasuga Korone.
We were all Adeptus Mechanicus back in the day.
well that takes me to.... what, 30 years ago?
Never expected these two to vibe so well XD
glad they're having a good time
Now if she holds reset while pressing power the prophecy will be complete
Korone is a true gamer. Her gamer spirit was so gamer it went back in time and lived through the golden age of games before she was born. She's probably the only one her age that's might have played more retro games than someone who grew up with them.
Ko'one is actually one of the older holomem.
@@adenpowter really? i assumed she was in her 20s, is she actually like 40-ish?
@@Endymion766 I think somewhere in her 30s iirc. But either way her dad was/is a huge gamer so even if she didn't experience those console gens directly, she would have gotten second hand exposure growing up from her dad.
@@Endymion766she's turning 40 this year
@@NewsofPE had no idea, so she's my age, that makes this less weird
Korone knows the old spells, the ancient magicks of a lost and forgotten age: the 1980s. Truly, she is far more formidable than her appearance suggests.
Ah, the ancient cartridge blow technique, sasuga Korone
Fun fact, blowing on the cartridge usually helps not because you're removing dust, but because your microscopic spit-spray is helping conduct the connection from the cartridge circuits to the reader. So, you're watching a game's data being conducted through Korone's spit. A true blessing to any true Koronesuki.
so gamergirl spit to help play games. this is truly untapped market right fucking there
That's why I pee in the cartridges a little bit.
@@Draffut2003 what the fuck
Korone’s house might need a warning out front: “Enter at your own risk, dog inside this house, will kill you with laughter”
You make it sound like that's a bad thing.
I still have my Nintendo Family Computer with excitebike cartridge, feels like i need to blow that cartridge again for nostalgia.
Towa can laugh all she wants, that shit has a 100% success rate.
Absolute blessing to hear all of this.
So much time delivering so much good clips translated. Thank you for your hard work Jshay
I love how Towa just can't handle Korone's instinctive reaction lmao
There was some 80's dust stuck in there
I'm usually critical of the BROKE meta, but it's actually an accurate description this time 👍
Yeah, usually when clips say BROKE, the streamer in question just chuckles a couple of times. I don't usually use stuff like this for my titles, but I feel like it's warranted here
Blowing on cartridges or game systems is like the floor is lava game. Everyone does it without needing anyone else telling them about it.

Playing a cartridge like a harmonica. Works everytime.
YES! Did exactly that. All the time.
Wow, she still have a famicom? Now, that's a true gamer. :D
Super famicom☝️🤓
She has a lot of these old machines, apparently. Would be surprised if she didn't have a regular Famicom too.
She have most of them. Famicom, Super Famicom, Turbografx16, Sega Genesis, Sega Saturn, N64, Dreamcast, Game Cube, Wii/U, PSX. If she had the game on cartridge/cd, she always plays them on the original console.
@@ArchiveRagtagMoe I'm pretty envious, ngl.
Cute and ADORABLE! Great Job and also Thank You for the English Subtitles too! :)
Seeing this brings back memories of simpler times.
Honestly, I kinda miss the days of doing this. We've come a long way, but there's still something so iconic about blowing on the cartridge. Most 2000's kids will never have to experience it, which is actually a little sad.
I mean there was the 3ds which used the cartridge .. I still blew on the cartridge slot and the cartridge itself and it worked xD
One does not simply escspe their gaming roots.
They call them cassettes!
That's interesting
I think that was probably common in a lot of places, they were chunky plastic units you put into a machine hooked up to your TV to play, just like VHS tapes.
Some people would call them 'tapes' but we knew that was obviously wrong, because unlike VHS or 8-track there was clearly no reels of tape inside these cassettes.
Blowing into a game cart is a rite of passage.
Those two have such wonderful genuine laughs, and they are both prone to get into a loop laughing at each other's funny stuff. Like laughter oscillation, i love it :D
This action does not suprise me, you still blow your charger port
True. I have to do that with my charger all the time.
I don't know why but I've never thought of doing that! Guess I'll give it a shot soon and see if the old magic still works!
@@LordSleven There is logic in the madness, the ritual services a spiritual & physical purpose akin to witchcraft.
Towa, born too late to blow into cartridges. SMH
ah the blowing
if it doesn't work you q tip the card
if that doesn't work its the wiggle
if that doesn't work you turn that shit upside down.
2:04 there's something about the sound of someone running away from a microphone while laughing that I always find very enjoyable.
Korone is kinda like Jerma. They just have this comedy distortion field around them at all times that just causes comedy to happen
I've been saying this!!!!!! their love for old media, their surprising athlethic ability, the dynamic they have between them and their chat, their humor for random sometime insane things, and so much more subtler similarities, she's jp jerma
>Korone blown in a snes cartridge
>Thumbnail has a n64 cartridge
This triggers me...
Sorry about that! Fixing the thumbnail now
I absolutely love that Korone is into retro games.
The fact she has the consoles and knows about how blowing in the carts effects them...thats our oshi bois~
As a Grown up Millennial I confirm that this Troubleshooting method is the Most Effective one
I do that as well on Flash Drives
I feel old all of the sudden.
What you're *_actually_* supposed to do is use pressurized air or isopropyl alcohol to clean the contact points. Just a light dab will do. Spitting into the cartridge will corrode the contact points.
I'm glad that Korone and Towa played _Shockman Zero._ It's one of the better Japanese exclusives for the SNES.
We didn't have those easily back in the day 😂
Pretty impressed how much you were able to catch of Towa's short-of-breath speech.
At 2:19 I think I hear her say 頬が痛い(、笑いすぎて) "My cheeks hurt (from laughing so hard)."
Oh damn, now someone HAS to animate this 😂 Koro-san, a verdadeira gamer, assopradora de fita!
Yeah, Towa's too young. She does not know the struggle. 🤣
She really shouldn't do that. It will add moisture to the cartridge metal contacts and corrode them.
The right thing to do is shaking it gently with the contact side down or using pressurized air to clean it.
Korone mentions that towards the end.
Yep, at the end of the clip she actually addressed that. She knows you aren't supposed to but it's become a habit.
Have you like watched the whole clip..?
She knows, mentioned once about the effect and multiple times that it was out of habit
The lost art of troubleshooting 😂
You know Korone is a real one when she's aware that you're not actually supposed to blow on the cartridges but does it anyway lol
haha, this was a nice off collab.
We got to learn/reminded of something new about Korone's cleanliness habits and reason why that time when she went to onsen with other members, she was standing and washing herself.
We also heard about her preferring wired keyboard/mouse and had a mental struggle with bluetooth to the point the studio staff was telling her to live in the future a bit more. 🤣
