I didn't do anything like drop it, so I don't know what happened.
I'd appreciate some help.
Now I can't play with the top screen.
BTW, this is in the Hydeout because I was playing AJ and AJ's board is here, but if you think it should be in the Police Station, then please move it.

Hope you still have your warranty. A friend of mine gave me their DS with a broken top screen and I figured I'd just get it repaired, but in the end repairing the stupid thing was only $30 or so short of buying a new one so I just got a fancy (at the time) DSlite.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. But then, since it sounds like it isn't the screen isn't shattered maybe it won't be as bad as it was for me.

I got it around the same time as it first came out so yeah, it's pretty old.
The touch screen seems to work, just not the top.
And it was working just fine yesterday before I placed it in my pocket.
Also, I never carry magnets.
Bwaaah!

It involved a backpack, lots of heavy books, a mix-up, and a stall on My First Ace Attorney.
Yeah, I suggest buying a new one.

This is so shippable just because of one conversation.

If it's out of warranty, buy a new one or (if you're daring) take it apart and take a peek.

Fast forward to last week. After having a cracked hinge for the past month or two and teh sound failing, my DS stopped recharging. We found that just getting the hinged fixed would be $75. So a few days ago, I got a used red DS (I'll get a Lite sometime, just not now) for about the same price as the hinged, and it works fine.
Get the used DS deal, unless the price quote is cheaper.

Congratulations, Your Nintendo DS top screen has imploded! Seriously, The same thing happen to me with a GBA and got the same multicolour blur that you currently have. I called Nintendo about it a few years and told that's what happened. They say it's due to body heat and or pressure forced on the system. You can try to send in for your repairs (to replace the screen) or buy a new one. Chance are that'll cost about the same, so you should start looking into a new one.
