Topic: Anyone have this Universal Game Selector from Memorex?

I came across this today and it sounds very promising:

It works by plugging into the game slot of your 3DS, DSi, DSi XL or DS Lite console and has three slots for 3DS/DS games which you can switch between playing with just a flick of a switch on the back of the case! I'm wondering if anyone here has this and would recommend it to me? Is the switch sturdy and won't get accidentally flicked during gameplay? Does the 3DS still fit onto the charging cradle with this on?

I have no experience with this, but I can tell you right now that with that thing on the bottom it will definitely not fit into the charging cradle, interesting product design though, I'm interested if it works, I looked it up on amazon, no product reviews yet, I'd keep an eye on that and go from there if no one here knows how well it works

Memorex is making video game accessories now? The same company that manufactures writable DVDs and CDs?

actually seems to be Hyperkin, also, why is the cover art for RedSteel (a Wii game) on one of the cartridges in the above image? weird

@2 Damn that sucks I can't use the cradle with it. Oh well I guess if it's easy to take off it's fine. I think I will get one, they do look pretty good.
@3 That's right, Memorex is making video game accessories now! Some of their new products were this, a 3DS steering wheel attachment, a wireless Wii Nunchuk and a PS3 Move controller.
@4 Yes the link you posted is made by Hyperkin but the pictures I got were from the Memorex one.

Here's a video I found on Youtube from their E3 presence this year that shows off this and the other products I mentioned: [youtube:2CQeXWYc2wo]

I have seen these around since the age of the GBA SP (for the SP, not DS obviously), I'm sure they have been around for longer than that, though.

I saw that when I was looking around the shops the other day and I had a look at it.
Pretty cool, and I couldn't really care less that it doesn't fit in the charging cradle considering I don't even bother using the charging cradle anyway...
I wouldn't buy it though.
I don't really like the idea of having that sitting on the bottom of my system.
It's not really worth it just so I don't have to change games over... it only takes a few seconds and isn't much of a hassle.
I don't tend to change my game over that often anyway.
I tend to play one game at a time for like ages.

@Morpheel: Yeah, I was going to post this for comparison.

This would be one advantage to having all games stored digitally.

You must be a young-un. Memorex was making cassette tapes long before they started making DVDs and CDs

You must not like the NIKO battery pack + then.

Speaking of, it looks like those with a Nyko Battery Pack (like myself) won't be able to use this. Sigh.

I don't have one.
I usually have my netbook in my backpack and a USB charger for the 3DS so if I'm ever low on battery (which hasn't been much of a problem yet) I can just use my netbook like a powerpoint coming from my bag.
Works for me and it means I don't have to attach anything to my 3DS (until the circle pad add-on is released at least).

funny...but totally useless because you can...you know. hot swap games.

and i prefer adding a expanded battery pak there instead of that thing. if you really wanna change games repetitively like this, well...youre addicted like hell.
i usually carry a game holder that contains 4 games, and its more than enough. i rarely even swap games.

one thing that I should point out, this will most likely be incompatible with the circle pad expansion, if it turns out it somehow is, I'd consider getting it, but until then, no deal for me

Trust me I know that. The majority of kids these days have never even seen an audio cassette or video tape. Memorex isn't the only onw, TDK makes those things too.

I have one of these for my 3DS. Have to say, it is pretty awesome. Does anyone know if something like this will be made for the Nintendo Switch?
