Conker's Bad Fur Day motherboard problems :(
Hey guys,
So I bought a N64 lot from a family member and paid quite a sum because he was selling me CBF day and, because I was in such a delight to finally get the game, I never bothered to test it. Once I got home, I discovered that the metal contact points (i.e., the part that slides into the contact point reader in the console) are extremely worn. I tried my best to clean them, but some of the contacts are missing entirely from the motherboard, particularly on the back side. I am also not skilled enough to do a chip transfer. Are there any other ways to ressurect and/or replace individual metal contacts?
I wish I had a picture I could post for reference, but I think my description seems alright.

And a list of games that use the CIC-NUS-6105 like Conker:

Between the two lists, Perfect Dark is a direct swap, but I don't remember if Conker uses two ROM chips or not. Most N64 games have only one ROM socket.
