DS Slot 1 cover ???

Question

just gotten my NDS Lite .. it has a Game Pak slot Cover.. but just wondering if there a DS Card slot cover ? or it doesn't come with it .

I mean DS Card Slot is "open" and does not comes with a cover to slot it in even if u do not have a DS game slot in it ?

Answer 1

Nope. The idea there is that if you're buying the DS, you're planning to use it for DS games, so you'll probably have one tucked into the slot at all times. With the GBA slot, not only is that platform supposedly slowing down (couldn't possibly tell by the GBA SP hardware sales) and likely to be discontinued by Nintendo at some point in the future (according to a 2006 keynote speech, it has possibly already seen its last Christmas season), but the DS Lite has been shrunk down to the point where a standard GBA cart will stick out quite a bit, which further reduces the likelihood that anyone will feel like leaving an actual game cart plugged in. With my original DS, I actually generally just leave the Rumble Pak in the GBA slot, but until they start selling the special Lite-only Rumble Pak in the US, I'll probably only take the slot cover off if I want to play a regular GBA game.
