Abstract
A cartridge, which is an attachment device, is mountable into an insertion slot in a game apparatus. At a side surface inside the insertion slot, a slide member is movable from a near side to a far side. The attachment device includes a housing and a hook. When the attachment device is inserted into the insertion slot, a predetermined portion of the housing abuts against the slide member, and the slide member is caused to move toward the far side of the insertion slot when the predetermined portion is inserted further inside while abutting against the slide member. The hook is inserted into a recessed portion generated at the side surface inside the insertion slot when the slide member moves toward the far side of the insertion slot, and then latches onto the inside wall.
