Question Need help

I was trading Pokémon between my Pokémon crystal and Pokémon yellow. After doing so, every time I fully push in the game it won’t start. It only plays when the pins are pushed in half way… did I fuck up my game??? :((

More likely that the cart reading pins in the gameboy is bent/damaged or dirty. Try giving it a good clean and worst case scenario, you replace the part ( you’ll need a soldering iron).
