The other fix I used was inserting the cartridge just barely enough so that you could push it down into the console. That seemed to work more than blowing on the end

I'm still unsure what exactly this did, but it certainly worked

That or I would push it all the way down and insert another cartridge in on top of it just enough to stay put. This usually worked as well
