Need help finding a DS-Lite GBA cartridge reader

Hello all,

I've been wanting to build a GBZ for a while now and I finally decided to pull the trigger and get all the parts, but I'm having trouble finding the GBA cartridge reader.
Does anyone have any info on finding a source that still sells them?

Thanks for the help!

really hard atm, sold out everywhere. I'd suggest you just wait a couple weeks in order for vendors to restock.

I have a few spares (I got a pack of 5 in the mail today, I only need 2 or 3). I'll ship to continental US for $1.50 each plus a flat shipping $1. PM me if interested.

Sent you a reply. For all others - sorry, but I had multiple takers, so don't have any more to offer at this time.

Any chance anyone else has a spare they'd be able to send over to the UK? Obviously I'd pay!

I too am having the same issue!

Thank You!!!

I've been having the exact same problem. Either couldn't get hold of any or shipping to the UK cost an arm and a leg. I'd suggest posting on some local Facebook selling pages that you are after some old devices (don't even have to be fully working as you only need the reader), or also try apps like Gumtree and Shpock. After weeks of looking I managed to pick up 2 original NDS for £15 a piece yesterday that I'm going to strip for parts. Aparantly local car boot sales & markets are good but it will probably depend on the day and your luck.

Also bought a broken NDS lite off eBay for 6 bucks before I found this place.
