Abstract
A non-limiting example charging stand comprises a main body that includes an outer side member and the inner side member. The inner side member has an inserting portion for inserting a portable game apparatus. The inserting portion is set with a depth that hides a portion of a hinge but does not hide a cover constituting a part of a housing of the portable game apparatus when inserting the folded portable game apparatus in a vertical orientation. Accordingly, when viewing the portable game apparatus inserted in the charging stand from the front, it is possible to see a color, a pattern or an image of character that is applied to the cover. At this time, a color, a pattern or an image of character that is applied to an outer circumference surface (front) of the charging stand can be also seen.
