I kinda miss my old fat DS. :P
Who's got a Gameboy Micro here?
^ For sure. As far as 'simple', though, not for me...my hands are like baseball mitts...not really the 'fine detail' sort. :(Quote:

I wont abandon hope until I have spoken with a few folks about it....
Magnetic screwdrivers help with that. :wacko:Quote:

Magnetic help, indeed, but no way in hell....those little "guts" scare me.... :wacko:Quote:

I can take detailed pics of the affected area....or at least as 'detailed' as my 5-year-old camera will display....
I have discovered the joy that is FFV :<3:
Also just a stab in the dark here but does anyone have a save for Paper Mario? Mine got corrupted and my progress is lost, I was getting pretty far. Just at the beginning of chapter 6.
Final Fantasy? No?Quote:

Never played 'Paper Mario'. Love the Mario games, I'll give it a go....
I'll tell you, that Luigi game that Big N showed during the last show looked g-r-e-a-t.....
What you're seeing sounds like the ribbon cable from the lower screen. And if the screen(s) flash white when you try to power it on, it's probably just that the ribbon cable has slipped loose and needs to be reattached.Quote:

:crying:It doesnt flash white, in fact, it doesnt flash at all. :(Quote:

Hm. I've done my fair share of DS repair for my own system and for my siblings'. But it's been at least a year since I worked on one or read about any of it, and without seeing it I can't be terribly sure what's going on unfortunately. :shrug:Quote:
