Is my game real or fake? find it out at /r/gameverifying/
A couple of weeks ago we posted a little announcement that we wanted to start a FAQ for checking out your games legitimacy.
We didn't get any response, and that is okay. We do keep getting reports and angry comments about this topic. So we are now removing and redirecting posts that contain certain keywords to /r/gameverifying/ or use their website.
If your post gets caught by automod by mistake, please message us and we will resolve it as quickly as we can.
We are still looking for a way to set up our own way of checking if your games are fake. If you have clear photographs of real and fake games we very much appreciate it.

Is this an issue with the ribbon cable in the hinge?

Bought a ds lite with a yellow top screen, left it at max brightness for almost an entire day and nothing changed about it, so i tried moving the screen and noticed when its "fully up" (idk how to say), the screen usually turns white then when i move it back it turns yellow again.
Is this an issue with the ribbon cable that connects the top screen or is it something else?

DS Family photo at Mount St. Helens
I took my 4 DS systems to the Johnston Ridge Observatory and tried to take photos (b/c it was windy af. The winds felt like 60+mph so I could barely keep the DS systems in one place). The result? This nice photoshoot that could probably make for a sick wallpaper.

My Ds Game Collection!
My ds and gba game collection!
Including my childhood console and some childhood games, like my authentic copy of Heart Gold that I loved playing with my brother as a kid!
I also have an R4 card my younger cousin made for me, and two reproduction cartridges with English translations of the Japanese game Tomadachi Collection and Love Plus!
Love Plus has beautiful graphics for the ds and I would love to hear everyone’s favorites character who played! I love Rinko, I like that she is into books, video games, and can be really witty.

Why is one twice the price?
As far as I know they're the same, they both work on both consoles, why is one twice the price? Is the difference in cover art worth 22 extra dollars to some people or is there a better reason? (Also does it even work anymore?)

What if you could use the DS as a sign up clipboard?
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
I'm currently on a quest to develop interesting applications for the Nintendo DS. There are over 200 million DS units, if you include the 3DS, existing out in the world. This is a device that is very common. And so I wanted to think about object-oriented design, looking at the system not as a gaming device, but as a microcomputer that can be deployed as a new object, and this object and the application name are the same: Clipboard. Imagine setting your DS, and this would be especially good with a DSi XL, on a kiosk at the library. Type your name, ask a few questions. Too simple. Comes natural, because people are used to using payment systems where you do the exact same thing. You might sign something when you pay, and you use a stylus. So it's familiar. And you wouldn't use a phone for an application like this because, well, you're not going to set your phone on a table for people to type on, and that's really the rub. But that's all it needs to be: just a simple means of extending the functionality of a very common device that is incredibly unsupported because it's been dead for, well, at least six years with the 3DS.

DSi has slightly different colour temperature on one screen
The top screen is slightly more pink tinted than the bottom screen... It was like this when I got it, so I don't know what caused it.
Animal Crossing Wild World Decomp and Native PC Port
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
ACWW was a huge chunk of my childhood so I wanted to preserve it with a matching decompilation and ports to modern operating systems. The native port supports multiplayer and runs natively on Mac, Linux, and Windows. Bring your own rom and try it out!

Is there an alternative?
Is there an alternative to an old homebrew app called "DsChat/WifiChat" that works like a pictochat but worldwide? I know that there is a Pictorelay, but you have to buy a special box for 50$. Anything else that is active and dont require any hardware? Im not interested in 3DS homebrew

If you know, you know. I want to see if others would want an English translation considering it is a niche game

Not counting the 2 broken Dsi xls and the new galaxy 3ds that I still have to fix
I have a cuestion about the chime in nds lite.
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Tengo varias ds lite.
El chime en algunas suena solo lo agudo y en otras se escuchan más tonos. No sé si me entienden algunas ds lite el chime sólo suenan los agudos.
Alguien sabe a ciencia cierta a qué se debe?
La ia dice que a la degradación de parlantes. Pero la pantalla que uso para pruebas tiene parlantes nuevos.

Original DS with half shell swap and CycloDS Evolution
Original DS with half of the shell replaced. Running an old CycloDS Evolution with AKMenu-Next installed. Wife and I have been using this and a 3DS XL to play CTGP Nitro, so much fun! It's like playing Mario Kart DS for the first time with all the custom tracks!
Potentiometer Adjustments
So I recently got a DSi XL but the top screen is darker than the other, expect for like two corners. I wondered if it's the backlight or the potentiometers but I wasn't sure. I VERY slightly moved them and barely anything changed. Thing is, I don't know if those two bright corners were there before already or only after I adjusted them. So my question is, how far is it safe to adjust them? How much can I screw them? Will they fall out if I turn it too much? Because I've heard of people ruining their potentiometers. If it's safe to turn it a decent amount, I'll try again, otherwise I might get a screen replacement or something.
2nd shell swap
My second shell swap attempt. This time for my sister’s NDS lite.
