What? Are you saying you don't have the official NES cartridge cleaner?! And you call yourself a Nintendo fan... Shame...I can't say that I have had to clean a 3DS game before. However, I have a few DS games that could use a good cleaning due to use. I know the game cartridges don't like moisture, but what to use to safely clean/remove the tarnish and not take the copper plating off?

All jokes aside, you could probably use the official NES cartridge cleaner. Me, personally have had to blow off games just from them being in my school bag. It's awful and bad for the cartridge, I know but it's not like you're going to destroy the cartridge after a few blows, assuming you're not spitting on it.
Rubbing alcohol. Dip a Q-tip in the alcohol, squeeze out any excess alcohol, slowly and gradually rub the contacts on the 3DS/DS cart. Let it dry.I can't say that I have had to clean a 3DS game before. However, I have a few DS games that could use a good cleaning due to use.

I've never had to clean a 3DS game before. I got a used Final Fantasy III for the DS that had some gunk on it, but it comes right off pretty easily. 3DS games seem to be able to survive a bit of water though. There's no way I'm the only one who accidentally sent a game or two through the washing machine.
