WTB DS-Lite GBA cartridge reader sockets

Post by pomme » Tue May 30, 2017 9:42 pm

I've got 2 GBZ projects that I am stalled on while I look for some DS-Lite GBA cartridge reader sockets. I had mistakenly bought DMG cartridge readers and you can imagine my confusion as I tried to work them into my build.

I PM'd abrugsch a while back but never heard anything. The entire world's supply seems to have been diminished according to my internet searches?

Does anyone have a link to any DS-Lite GBA cartridge reader sockets, or have any for sale? I am looking for at least 4.

Thanks! Love the forum I just don't post much.

sorry @pomme, I must have missed your message in the deluge i got. as per my thread i'm working through my backlog.

I'll PM you directly as i may be opening orders back up soon anyway, now that HHL has them back in stock, making orders to me from USA more or less irrelevant, which takes off a lot of pressure

Hey, no problem. I figured you were just busy. I am still interested... I've checked HHL and I am not seeing them listed, only the DMG cart readers, which is what I have. Is there a product link for the DS-Lite cart reader that I'm missing on HHL?

Hi pomme, I replied to your PM before seeing this.
the reader in the pics on the HHL page is not from a DMG. possibly a DS Phat or even something new like the GB-Boy (a gameboy compatible knockoff)
at any rate, depending on what he's actually selling and if the pics are representative, then it should still be a fine part to use that's a lot smaller than the OG DMG part
