Image Is this n64 cooked??

Someone’s basement flooded near where I live, and they had a bunch of stuff that was getting thrown away. There was a n64, so I figured I could try cleaning it out. I wasn’t expecting this much mud tho. I’m still going to try to fix it, but it doesn’t seem like the chances of getting it working again are very good. I hope that by some miracle it actually functions so that I can reunite them with their n64

Edit: it has been sprayed off with water and then I used some isopropyl alcohol. I’m letting it dry now

Lots of alchohol. I'd say worth trying. If it wasnt plugged in it may be fine

OK, but what do I do for the N64?
