RE: has anyone got world of warcraft here?

My friend's DS is starting to show dust under both of his screens. We're not sure how it got in there, but one likely culprit is his GBA cartridge port. This thing is a huge repository for dust if you don't have a GBA cart loaded in it.

I've got Metal Slug Advance in mine since day one, almost glued in you might say, ahem, so I haven't gotten any dust yet, nor have friends who also keep a cartridge loaded.

I've allways had a GBA game in it from the start, to prevent dirt and stuff to ruin the GBA slot, currently i have Rayman in it:P

Yeh this is a good tip. No problem for me though, as I always have a GBA cart in the DS.

Its currently Metal Slug Advance like yourself x999x

I will put the news up, and I will also consider calling Nintendo and telling them.
