Loose cartridge holder/connections, any easy way to tighten it up? Have to press down on games for them to run. (Model 1)

[Released: 1988] The Sega Genesis was Sega's most successful console; though Sega has never released a total sales figure quote. Several add-ons were created including the Sega CD and Sega 32X which extended its capabilities.

Hey all,
So basically I have to keep holding the cartridges down for them to play, and then if I slowly ease off pressure till my hand is off, I can keep playing, but most of the time the second I take my hand off it freezes up. Is this a semi-easy fix? I have a mega everdrive x7 coming in, so worst case I can get that all setup and just tape it down into the slot I guess lol but would prefer to actually fix the console if feasible.
Help is appreciated!
