The Nintendo DSi is the third iteration in the Nintendo DS line, and made its debut in Japan in late 2008.

My Game Card Slot 1 isn't working properly,even tho I hear the click.

l still heard the click of the Game Card Slot 1, but there's no game appearing on the screen. How this happened is l got my DS-i and my little brother was impatient at the time. Very impatient to the point where he put the game card in REVERSE, causing the Slot 1 to not work.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Hi!

Could be many things.

First, try to clean the game card slot with isopropyl alcohol inside (carefully).

So that the pins are clean.

If it's still failing, check for broken pins. If something did break in there, you need to replace the game card slot.

The downside is that you do need to solder to get this fixed. If you do not have the equipment, nor the experience, I would get it to a local repair shop to replace it for you.

Replacing the motherboard is another possibility, but would be more expensive...
