Compressed air, cotton swabs and rubbing alcohol are your best bet.

Yeah, because all you want to do is clean the contact points. You aren't cleaning the circuit board itself. Rubbing alcohol is also a drying agent, so it evaporates in room temperature.

Just sort of gently rub the q-tip along the contact points, you don't want to get deep down in there, that's what a can of compressed air is for. The q-tip itself isn't gonna do a whole lot but clean up any sort of gunk that may have gotten on the surface for whatever reason. Also, another thing that was a common issue with the original NES in particular was that the contact points would get bent out of shape, so very carefully using a thin enough object, you can sort of pull them back into place.
