Only about a thousand times worse.

I am not amused. >:|

I had the typical minor hinge crack happen to me before, you know, where it's just the straight line across the hinge. I sent it back and the system came back looking brand new, and now this is happening. NOT COOL.

What did you do to it O_O!!!

I remember hearing that the design of the DS lite has a flaw in it and the hinge crack is the result. A friend of mine had a crack in his DS. He simply returned it got a new one.

Yeah, it's the DS lite that has the flaw. Let me edit my post ^-^;

Meh, most claims of flaws in a design (of the DS Lite or otherwise) are usually minor problems that are thrown way out of proportion.

Anyway, just call up Nintendo, tell them your problem and they should be more than willing to help you out, either by sending you to a certified technician or just replacing the unit altogether. If this has happened before, however, you may want to consider that you're handling your DS Lite too roughly... or that you're just horribly unlucky. >_>;

I had the same thing happen. It started as a hairline crack in the left hinge. Then, in December, my DS Lite broke. (Fell apart in my nephew's hands.) It still worked for a while too, but then the top screen's color started to turn yellowish. I got a replacement from Game Stop since I bought the insurance. I have an onyx black DS Lite now. Your DS Lite image looks all too familiar...

I helped my DS along when it started cracking. I wanted a new one anyways.

Tell me about it. The hinge cracked on my ds too. And it was the original. And it was blue. And my sister dropped it while playing Phoenix Wright (and she ended up not liking the game so much! >:( Hmph!) And she once dropped my gameboy advance in the toilet!

OUCH!... Now that is pretty bad. Hinge on my first Lite cracked also, but it only made the lid wobbly nothing that serious... I got it exchanged free of charge... Contact Nintendo about it they will replace it.

Posers, Phoenix_fan. As in the guys who mimic stuff to fit in and/or be cool (but, in reality, are being anonying or stupid while mimicing stuff)...

...but the DS Lite hinge crack thing is not cool...now I'm getting nervous, myself, since I own a DS Lite. But, frankly, I take good care of my DS Lite (I hope), so I probably won't have to worry about this issue TOO much.

Don't worry Fappey, it's hardly as common as we're making it look. It all depends on either how you take care of it, or whether your DS was just crummy to begin with.

For me, I'm not sure which (although I always take incredibly anal care of it). All I know is that I'm betting an idiot dropping it directly onto the side, on concrete tile, had something to do with it.

Usually, the crack happens when you stretch the top screen too far. I don't believe it's meant to be parallel to the bottom screen at all.

It IS meant to be parallel to the bottom screen, not that I ever put it that way for fear of hinge cracks.

But apparently those efforts were in vain... twice. :P

which is why there's an audible and physical "click" when you've opened it about 160 degrees, right?

Normal DS is cracked at the hinge. It's annoying- but I deal with it.

Okay, so is this happening more with normal DSs or DS lites, or maybe its happening to them both equally?

The hinge on my normal DS broke off, but it still works perfectly fine. I've had it for about a year and a half now. It's weird, but as long as it works I'm not going to replace it. The same thing happened though; it just fell apart in my hands.

There's yet another of the same clicks when you do it at a 180 degree angle. It's intentional.

Hell, most of the demo kiosks have the system at a 180 degree angle, too.

Because most of the kiosks are located at waist level, and unless you sit on your knees, you have to look straight down.
