Memorex eases the absurd, old-fashioned pain of carrying around games on removable cartridges
Memorex, once famous for making audio cassettes and video tapes, has just announced a clever accessory for Nintendo’s DS lineup. The Universal Game Selector Case snuggles up to the back the handheld console and extends an appendage into its game-cartridge hole. You then slot three game carts into the slots on the back and you can swap between them instantly at the flick of a switch.
You know how you can quickly change between games on your iPhone or iPod Touch without swapping in hardware? It’s just like that! (Only with just three games).
The case/dongle fits any DS — the DS Lite, DSi, DSi XL and the new 3DS — and requires no battery. It’s a clever solution for carrying around your spare games, with a very convenient twist. And it costs just $20, which might be worth it just to stop the kids from losing their $25 carts.
