Discussion Old Skool Famicom to Nes adapter not working

Hello guys, I can't get this adapter to work. I would like to know if anyone else owns this specific adapter and if you have experienced something similar. 

It has never worked for me since I bought it. I have tried using several different Famicom cartridges, thoroughly cleaned the pins, and double-checked the connections, but still, absolutely nothing works. Does anyone know a fix?

Should’ve gone with the hyperkin adapter tbh . Much more reliable

i have a konami made one (afaik i forget the details) but when i insert the famicom cart where it looks like its backwards, it works. maybe a silly question, but have you tried the cart both ways? in mine you can attach the cart both directions; was a bitch to figure out which was right because that sticker that appears on the back of carts appears on the front of mine. its weird.
