does anyone have any experience with 3ds hardware maintenance? my n3dsxl's cartridge slot is being inconsistent, especially with ds cartridges. i want to restart my soulsilver cart and i can't really confidently do it if it won't recognize the cart is there more than every ten tries or so. maybe the pins are just bent?

@typhlosion with the DS I used to have a bit of paper folded on itself once or twice to insert with the cart to ensure it was stable. It was a thing with flashcarts having slightly thinner plastic and being picky. Might help with a 3DS too
