Now we have four game holders, its time to secure them to the DS game case flap.

Take a strip of duck tape, just a little less longer than all four game cases, and fold it over on itself so that the sticky side is exposed. Use a few millimeters to stick it to itself, and then stick to the top cover flap in the middle, about half a centimeter from the end (first picture).

Stick all four game holders to this strip, the bottom of the game holders aligned to the end of the flap and all flush together with no gaps, as in the second picture. Then, stick a piece of duck tape to the underside of the top flap, with around 4cm extra to either end, and about half the width beyond the end of the top flap.

With your knife, trim the piece you just added as shown in the third picture. The cuts should be aligned with the edge of the flap, and the edges of the outer game holders.

Fold in the side flaps, making sure you tuck them in snugly to the outer game holders (fourth picture), then fold up the bottom flap, again making sure its all snug (fifth picture).

Yes it works very nicely with ds lite (just a little extra movement in the case) no problem with a Advance game in there :). Great instructable by the way :)

No problem, I was reading through the instructions after I printed them out and I was like "Lol that can't be right!". I went back after I posted my comment and saw that U and I are in fact right next to each other. Simple mistake.

...You misspelled "duck" in the first paragraph, you might want to fix that. ;)
