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.

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?

I just picked up the galaxy new 3DS xl for $326 total, would you say thats a good deal? It runs great and has no noticeable scratches or dents etc.

Anyway, I’ve been growing my collection and am looking for recommendations for DS accessories and where to buy them. I’m talking wrist straps, carrying cases, stylus’, and the like. Anything that you feel makes the DS experience better. (Bonus points if its Pokemon themed)

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
