Got this new-old stock from Amazon. It's basically what we see, a plastic stand with an dsi XL pen holder. It's dumb, it's practical and it's actually adorable. (Genuinely surprised it's made in Germany, since today 99% of this stuff is made in China. )

I recently reshelled my childhood NDS Lite with the ExtremeRate Pokédex shell and I broke the bottom screen.

The first is the touch screen doesn't work but more concerning is the white vignette around the screen. I did some research and it's either theres too much pressure on the screen causing the vignette and touch issues OR (and more likely) I screwed up taking the white border off the bottom screen during installation.

I've since bought a replacement bottom screen with digitiser but before I install it do I need to remove the white border on the screen or do I leave it on?

I've read conflicting sides as to whether I should or not, just wanted a sanity check before I potentially bork another screen.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, I checked the ribbon cables are secure which they are.

Hi. I got a Silver DS Lite.

Fairly nice condition, the Hinge feels unused and the screens have a few light blemishes that I can only see at certain deliberate angles.

It's got a mismatching Stylus, it's missing the GBA cover and it came with a cheap USB to DS charging cable.

It's probably good to go but I want to know if there's anything I should look into doing/getting before I start poking at it.

Compré una Dsi y note que mi pantalla tiene unas manchas negras que solo se distinguen en los fondos blancos, pero mínimamente ya que se nota más en la obscuridad, no afecta en lo demás ya que cuando estoy jugando no se nota para nada, no afecta el tacto de la pantalla o algo por el estilo.

Mi pregunta es si esto afectará a largo plazo o solo es por el desgaste de tanto tiempo

Hi, I just bought my first ds console ever from vinted and I wanted to buy some screen protectors for it but I’m wondering if there are already screen protectors applied to it or is this how they came out of the box? Also what’s the best way to remove these if I wanna replace them?

found this pokemon dsi at a local game store. someone i guess recently traded it in. its got a few dings and scratches, but found a new home.

So if anyone can help me identify what’s wrong with the console. I recently bought a console and everything works really well- except it will randomly just go black. I notice it when I’m playing Pokemon for a while and it will just randomly go black. When I turn it back on it still works perfectly. It’s not that it dies because I have had it charge up fully. Any ideas? I’m thinking it may be the battery? Any ideas? Any clues on how I can help? Or should I just send it back while I have return window availability? If it’s super simple I would like to keep the device.

Hello i need assistance on who can help me or where to search for a reliable person or company to repair my DS game. Please let me know some recommendations

I reshelled this DS lite my dad found. It didn't have a battery, but I reshelled it before that arrived so I hadn't tested it before (should have..)

It turns on and works with the buttons but the touch screen is unresponsive. I double checked the tiny ribbon cable and it looks like it is pushed in as much as it can be.

When reshelling it I did accidentally peel off more of the screen in the corner than I was supposed to. Can this be the reason it is unresponsive?

Should I get a replacement digitizer/bottom screen? I see some online for 5 euros, but I'm not sure if I need the entire screen or just the digitizer part with the tiny ribbon cable?

Nostalgic for my late '90s Atomic Purple Game Boy Color, I kitbashed two eXtremeRate shell's, specifically the Chameleon Green Purple and the Gradient Translucent Bluebell, to give this DS Lite a dual personality. When closed, it looks like a sleek, modern handheld with an automotive-grade, color-shifting paint job. Opening it completely breaks that illusion, turning it into an exposed, retro hardware schematic, I really love to see the insides of retro hardware. To bridge the Chameleon Green Purple exterior shift with the clear interior, I used the metallic exterior D-pad and face buttons while keeping the transparent Start and Select buttons, I think this ties both worlds together without cluttering the look. Was it a pain to do this? Yes. Did I break my digitizer cable and had to buy a new one? Yes. Worth it? Absolutely in my opinion.

Easter Egg: I gave the GBA dust cover the exact same dual-tone treatment. The outer face matches the chameleon shell, but pulling it out reveals a Clear Atomic Purple back with a view into the original dummy GBA PCB. Just like the console itself: metallic on the outside, Atomic Purple on the inside!

Well i just have problems with this two specific emulators the other ones work just fine... and what is weird is that I was already playing both games

Rockman Battle and PuyoPuyoTsu(2)

So...

it´s not like it is the games are not compatible... i reinstalled them, i tried many types of bios and other roms...

So...

Weird, not sure what is going on...

By the way... this is the Micro SD

Just got this Cartridge from PayMore. Put it in, DS wouldn't read it consistently. Tried other cards and they read fine but I noticed some of the pins look like they're missing the gold. Still can return it but want to know if it's worth keeping and if I should just clean it really good or if the pins are fried. As you can see, there's some silver coloring where there should be gold so was hoping to get y'alls feedback. Thanks!
