General \ My touch screen comes off.

Yeah. So my touch screen came out a few times, and i think some of the contacts broke, i can only touch about 50% of the screen, and that is a bit off. Calibration doesn't do anything. Is there any way i could fix this, or get a replacement touch screen? I don't wanna buy a new DS. Also I'm surprised at how thin the touch screen is. It's just a transparent layer of plastic. Not even hard, or anything :\. I have a DS Lite by the way.

There's heaps of replacement screens on the net, I think I've seen some on ebay as well.

but sometimes the replacement screens don't fit or are fauly. Give it in to the big N. It may cost alot but yeah... It's in good hands.

Guyver: Now why didn't I think of that. All the ones on eBay are from China, or the USA. Do you know any Aussie websites that sell them?

Shuffle: How much do you reckon Ninty would charge? I don't have warranty...

I would give Nintendo a call and see what they will charge also factor in freighting costs, then weigh that up against buying a replacement screen and replacing it your self.
Most of the places that I've found are from the US.

On a side note I Googled Replacement DS parts and we came top on the list www.google.com.au/

The Nintendo in Australia do a good job;; They know their way around consoles. They're next to the Carribean Gardens Market, btw.

I'm not gonna fly all the way to Victoria just for a new touch screen. :\ And I believe it's Scoresby Industrial Park.
