The cards should only be in their cases or the DS really. I find the cards to be very stress-resistant, which is why they have survived being handled by my little brother.

I think the size is perfect.

We're all getting used to swapping SD cards in and out in devices and we've even moved to mini and micro for things like cell phones. The DS games are about the same size.

It doesn't sound like it's a problem with the size of the cart, but your little sister :P

Seriously you should try keeping up with micro SD cards, those are small and annoying!

I got one of those Nyko G-Pak's for my DS and my games stay either in my DS or in the game holders. I dont find it a problem keeping up with my games however I dont have a little sister to worry about.

my oppinion on the cartidges it that if that small thing has the power of an n64 game then if the were just a little bit bigger than they could do so much!

Sometimes yes, sometimes no. But, then again, I find it annoying at how small some things are, and it becomes pointless to make 'em so friggin' small.

Just keep them in the case if you aren't playing them.

Well they are bite sized, maybe she ate it? :shock:

The problem I have with the cards is not so much that size as how they actually go into the DS. The push-pull mechanics are fine in every aspect but one: there is nothing stopping it from being taken out during game play.

The old Brick Gameboys (possibly even the GB Pockets and Colors, but I don't recall) had a lock on the top of the system that held the game in place when the power was on, so no matter what you did that game was not budging. The GBA systems didn't have them, but the cartridges would still stay in their place unless you yanked them out. . .

Maybe I'm the only one who has had this problem, but twice when I've been playing DS I have gotten up to bring it somewhere when the power was still on, my hand pushed against the game and it popped out. Luckily both times I had just saved the game. . . I can't see this being a common problem, just something that I noticed. I probably just have to find a new way to hold my DS when I'm walking *^_^* Thinking about it I can't see how they could have a lock on the games, but I'm curious is anyone else has experienced something similar? I'm so lame.

They're a good size, they're easy to take places, and fit easily into your pocket :) plus, they're harder to break than disks :D
