3DS won’t read just one game

Hi! So, I have a Pokémon game and I wanted to play it again, so I took out the game that was in my 3DS (which worked btw) and I entered the game and it wouldn’t read it. So I tried putting it in my other 3DS and it didn’t work on there! But when my cousin came with there 2DS I put it in and it worked fine! Any tips y’all can think of? I really wanted to play again... Thanks in advance!

Hi!

You could try cleaning the contact pads on that cartridge with some isopropyl alcohol, they look rather worn and dirty to me.

Check if the cartridge is of the correct region if it’s a different region then your handheld is then it will not work
