I usually use wick. One caution: be careful you don't accidently unsolder any of the surface mount components close to the chips. I only did it once, but it took me an hour to figure out which one I had accidently removed and what it was. I eventually found it stuck to my used wick. Also, I find it helps to add a bit of good 'ol 60/40 solder to the connections on the old chips THEN wick it off. Seems to wick up a lot better that way. By the time that set was made they were using lead free solder, and that stuff just doesn't seem to wick up well
