Unlike older 3DS models, the New 3DS has moved the game slot to the bottom of the system. This can unfortunately lead to some accidental removal of cartridges.

Cyber Gadget is at least releasing a new accessory in Japan tomorrow to prevent such situations. The push guards pictured above cost about 1,200 yen each.
