Game card removed

[demondays]

This happens on my main town sometimes and it really scares me after all the corruption stories tbh. Does anyone else's game do this? I have two physical copies and my oldest one only has done it so far.

Tell us what you mean about "game card removed" :') What's going on?

It happens sometimes when I bump my the back of my 3DS against a solid object or carry it around in my purse/pocket. So far no damage beyond just losing whatever progress I hadn't saved at the time. I make it a point to save whenever I finish doing something important just to be on the safe side.

That sounds scary. ^^; Maybe you should invest in a case or something?

Why is everyone so scared of this? It's a normal thing that happens, I have the same problem as ShenkuuBlossoms, where it happens while carrying it around in my bag or something.

Unless you're saving and you remove the game card (or your 3DS is messed up and thinks you did), nothing with happen to your save file. Nothing that you do after saving is actually kept until you save the next time. Bumping your 3DS like that when you're not saving will just erase what you did since your last save without doing any harm to your save file, so it's just really annoying if your 3DS does it often. I think the mechanism or whatever to release the card or whatever might get weaker over time, since my old 3DS did that a lot.

Mine does this, not very often though. Sometimes when I put a game in, it won't pop up, too. I think its just because my 3DS is old and I've dropped it a lot. I'm overdue for a new 3DS. :c

I got my game card removed a few days ago while it was still in. I thought my game corrupted, but it didn't. Phew. But is that what happened to you?

I have removed the game card and my sd card not knowing I was on the game
I was scared to death, but my town was okay in the end

Well, with the update. You have to have an SD card. (I think...)
