That wasn’t actually good for the cartridge, long term. My parents provided us with q-tips, but we were a Nintendo family. I had a few friends that had the SEGA Master System, and though I don’t remember the titles, I do remember several cartridges that we never played, because there were problems with the game a level or two in.

Try playing the original SEGA catalog. Lemme know how many of those games work.
Did you try blowing in them?
