How safe is it to swallow a 3DS cartridge whole?

Well this is embarassing for the gaming community at large.

Setting aside that your friend is a complete moron, perhaps he can be persuaded by a romantic appeal to sensibility.

That is, The game has already made indelible changes to his person - literally affecting his body. The game that he's played has inscribed complex lines of connection between neurons and synapses - done so by him playing it, experiencing its sights and sounds and interactions. As much as it means to him, he can expand upon the impact the game has on his spirit, by simply coming to understand more of the world and its creation.

On the other hand, eating a cartridge as a method of heightening one's relationship with the game is akin to heightening's one's relationship with food... by listening to it. Actually, probably worse - because at least with food, you can hear the sounds of it when you chew on it.

Why would someone do that? Would you break it into multiple chunks? How would you swallow the stuff inside? So many questions, so few answers. He should do it, for science.

Anyway, relevant book:

You're friend needs his head examined
to make sure there isn't any damage to his mouth that would interfere with eating the game

I rarely laugh ElTorro, but you managed to do just that.


As for the OP, good luck with changing this persons idea into a method that will not harm him.
 
I swear I thought this thread was that uncle asking if his nephew would live because he swallowed a game cartridge. I guess it would have been a Vita cartridge, though.

Apparently this is a common thought process.

Hahahaha, that fucking uncle, man. His nephews are always getting into shenanigans.
