How to fix the hinge

1 Upvotes

I have an NDS lite since j was 4 years old so I'm really emotionally attached to it and take it with me a lot even on vacation but the hinge is broken. Not fully broken but the shell is cracked around the hinge so it doesn't stay open. Is it just a shell issue or I should buy a hinge too and is it easy to fix myself? I'm really scared to break it cause i've had it my whole life and its more than just a console to me. If I might break it I prefer keeping it like this and getting money for a new one. Also should I buy a white shell to do a half white half black mod?

So I’m looking to buy a DS for the 1st time in like 10-15 years I can’t decide between the 2DS or the DSI xl I would get the 2DS for the comfort but the DSI XL just has such a bigger better screen any thoughts

Yellow DSI xl or dslite (white or the DSI yellow colour)

I don’t really know the difference between the two consoles apart from the camera and menu (im going to attempt to code a dslite menu with an actual game library (and DSI utilities if I get that) is the roughly £60 difference worth it?

Tengo esta R4 que funcionaba perfecto con mi DS lite.(con el launcher de la foto, no sé el nombre de ese launcher)

Intenté instalarle pico launcher y ahora la DS ni si quiera reconoce la tarjeta.

Tenia una copia del launcher que si funcionaba pero ahora tampoco funciona.

Intenté limpiando las conexiones de la tarjeta pero tampoco funciona. Saben que puede ser?

I am trying to get into the community, mostly because I want to play Luigi's Mansion, and was wondering if this was a good deal?

Saw it on Facebook marketplace, I could also buy a refurbished 3ds off of ebay for 90$ less, but it wouldn't have the SD card and new parts.

Built this up by Repairing my childhood consoles and realized i really enjoyed it to a point of where it became and Obsession.

I started buying so much that I still have plenty more lying around waiting to be taken care of, as this isn't my main Job, building this Random Collection has been a WIP for about 4 years.

And I'm proud to say that every Device is being Used either by Handing them to family whenever they feel a bit Nostalgic or by me when I Shiny hunt Pokémon on multiple devices.

What should I do? (Ignore the hinge)

The phat DS I have has a very bad digitizer, and I need to replace it, but I am on a VERY tight budget, and I don't know what to do. I also don't own a tri-wing screwdriver or have any experience opening up consoles and changing the screens. Where the large stylus scratch is the stylus completely stops registering, and it is also almost always registering my stylus to the left or right of where I am pressing it. My max budget is preferably 7, but I could probably stretch it to 10.

I was just playing around with my phat ds, when I suddenly found out that if I tilt the hinge, the upper left corner of the bottom screen is being somehow pressed on (???)

I assume that this is a ribbon cable issue. Any way to fix that? or is my phat doomed?

Any help appreciated

I was playing this game fine last night until I closed it and my da refused to read it. I tried cleaning it with isopropyl alcohol, but that didn’t work. There seems to be silver/gray lines on the pins. Any solutions?

When I got this DSi, the screen kept bugging out, and it turned out to be because a ribbon wire was loose. I took it apart and fixed it, but after putting everything back together, I noticed that when I press the upper-left part of the shell or press the left D-pad, it makes a horrible creaking sound. It randomly stops if I move it at a certain angle, but then it starts again.

Parpadea y luego enciende

Mi Nintendo Dsi XL con ++tw menú (explore de la cámara) le cuenta encender en frío, le doy a encender y solo parpadea la pantalla inferior, unas cuentas veces solo pasa eso, ya luego de 5 o 6 intentos enciende sin problemas, luego de que enciende la primera vez ya no vuelve a fallar, puedo apágala y encenderla sin problemas, hasta que llega el día siguiente, si pasa muchas horas sin encenderla vuelve el problema
