Description:
This 1UPcard console cleaner is designed for handheld systems that use DS-format game cards, including the Nintendo DS, DS Lite, DSi, DSi XL, 3DS, 3DS XL, New 3DS and New 3DS XL. The cleaner matches the size and connector alignment of a standard DS game card, ensuring a correct fit across the full DS and 3DS family of handhelds.
Over time, the internal pin-connectors inside DS and 3DS consoles can gather dust, light oxidation or grime, leading to read errors, freezes or intermittent “Game Card” messages. This tool helps restore reliable contact by gently polishing the console’s connector pins using a fine, controlled abrasive surface—without needing any fluids or cleaning agents.
Using the cleaner is simple: insert it into the handheld’s game-card slot, remove it, repeat the process a few times, and then test with a standard DS game. Occasional maintenance can help keep your system running smoothly and reduce loading issues. Its DS-style cartridge design also makes it easy to store alongside your existing game library.
