Nintendblow

n. - the action of removing a disk , dvd, card, usb or any other storage medium that is not functioning properly and blowing into the slot to resolve the problem. The action stems from 90s era Nintendo game consoles which would accumulate enough dust to stall the game.
Yo, pull that DVD out and give it a Nintendblow.

My camera card won't work. Try a Nintendblow in the slot.
