    Well no "switches" were aywhere and like I stated earlier for some reason none of the buttons on the ps3 worked.

    N64? Dude it's all about the NES. By the time I got an N64 I'd dispelled that myth ;)

    It did actually sort of work on the NES, I believe the metal connection points on the carts suffered from corrosion and blowing on them would (in theory) blow away any bits of rust or buildup. I've never encountered another console where this would even be necessary, even the top loader worked fine. That old front loading NES was a fickle POS that barely worked (but when it did it rocked your 80's socks off).

    Yeah I remember an article trying to scientifically figure out if it helped. I think the conclusion they came to was that it may have helped temporarily, but the moisture in your breath probably ended up speeding up the process/making it worse.

    It was the 1980's version of wrapping your XBOX 360 in a towel after a RROD. :rolleyes:
