Kinda. At least i'll have 2 DS's. Its not worth paying that much for a r button repair. I'd rather do it myself but I cant take apart the freakin DS.

Press the R Button really hard

or

Play games that dont require the R Button

You will have to take out the DS cover and look if it is simply jammed ir is it something with the cables. Go to some kind of console shop if it is more complex damage.

Thats gonna be kinda hard, UMK need R to block, Phoenix Wright need that for Evidence if you dont use touch screen, etc.

My friend fixed his PS2 controller's R1 button by taking a knife to the cracks around the button and clearing out the dirt that had gathered there... but he's a little loco so I'd suggest you not do that. Maybe get a power duster to blow out the dirt?

He's right; I once had a laptop which broke once, I could send it in for repair for free.
It broke down for a second time; and I could still send it back because of the warranty, and no money was charged.

Now it's broken for the 3rd time, but the warranty was expired.
(I'm not going to tell what brand it was; but I'm seconding the statement of 'free repair under warranty').
-edit
I know that I'm talking about a laptop, and not a NDS, but I'm pointing out that warranty is awesome.

And if you are really desperate...
..then dismantle the DS yourself. >_>
Don't know if it works with NDSlite, this is a phat DS version guide.

I wouldn't recommend that, especially if you've never done this before or don't at least have some technical knowledge. Just pay the minimal fee instead of taking an unnecessary risk that could cost you even more to fix.

lol... My DS has always been working, and I've never had a bad video game system, but I would recommend going to Future shop or something so they can give you a phone number...XD.

Best thing is to just send it to Nintendo... the warranty can probabbly be found on the Internet.

Live with it until you decide that you absolutely need a new DS. I've been working on a broken R, L, and slightly unresponsive A buttons almost half a year. My Phat DS has been good for, I'd say two years now. Makes me wonder if the DS Lite isn't built as well. Shoot, I mean, I know it isn't, but damn. It's beautiful.

If you bought it less than a year ago, it's under warranty, at least in the US.

my is messed up too
try:
1. flipping it upside down
2. blow at the crack while still upside down
3. press R very hard while still upside down
4. repeat 2 & 3 til it works again

but seriously warrantly lasts around 1 year so just get it fixed unless its over 1 year old....

I have a "phat" DS which is has a faulty L button. Are you saying that just because something is bad means another thing is exempt from it? I don't think so! Unless you can prove that the R button is infinitely superior to the L button which I don't think can be done.

I just blow into mine, then it works for a while, then I blow into it again. I have the hinge prob which is pissing me off cuz it said online that the repair was free, then the Customer Service guy said that the cost was 50 $.

My old original DS's R button doesn't work any more. I dropped it on that button about three times in the time span of a minute.

Shortly after, the touch screen stopped working.

Now the only game I can proper play is 'Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time' until it gets up to a certain point.

But that was the old DS. I have my Lite so it's just sitting on my desk at home.

There was some shady store that would have fixed it for me at the time but it was like $100.

I have had very few people tell me they've had problems with a Lite. I've had mine for two years now, and I have yet to have any problems.

Ace Prosecutor: If the button isn't just stuck, just send it in. If you crack it open, you void the warranty. Given that you started a help file on fixing an R button without trying to unstick it, I assume you are not well-versed in troubleshooting electronics or, more specifically, troubleshooting DS hardware. Don't risk it. I know throwing down $50 sucks, but it's a risk we take when we use electronics. They break sometimes.

sometimes it will not detect,

Lol, my Old DS's L doesn't work. How did i fix it?

I brought a DSlite :jake: btw the main reason i brought a new DS was that the DS's screen was UNCALIBRATABLE. So i had to play games with a uncalibrated screen. It's impossible to play Elite Beat Agents...

I saw this really cool electric blue original DS (should have asked for the DS) yesterday when I went to gamestop,
and yelled out "I NEVER SAW AN ORIGINAL BEFORE!"
and "SO THATS WHAT THE ORIGINALS' LOOK LIKE"

Also I got Kung Fu Panda for the Nintendo DS,
theres a story behind this though,
I was orignally going to get Pokemon Silver at this gamestop but they didnt have it,
and then I saw Phoenix Wright Trials and Tribulations, and asked if I could have it but,
I THEN REMEMBERED THAT
Spoiler: Trials and Tribulations
I hear you have to play Mia Fey in the first level
and then said that I wanted to have that one for my Birthday,
I also saw a PSP and asked for one for my Birthday.

My Birthday is on January.

Oh, and... THAT ORIGINAL ELECTRIC DS LOOKED COOL, AND I ALSO NEVER SAW AN ORIGINAL IN REAL LIFE, ONLY ON THE INTERNET... I WANT TO SAVE UP FOR THE ELECTRIC BLUE DS NAO.
I typed big because its a ORIGINAL DS!
I typed blue because its a ELECTRIC BLUE ORIGINAL DS!

Darn you people! :yani-fist:

The only reason why i got a blue DS, is because there were no gray ones left. I looked through 4 shops and only the blue one was left...

Also, for my new bleck DS, i went through 7 stores, and eventually i had to wait for the new shipment to come. They kept saying "i don't know when they will ship"
Also, once this guy, i asked him "Do you have any more Nintendo DS's in store?" he didn't even look at me, and said "NO"
