What addition was this DS lite?

This is the only picture I have of this DS, the reason being that within a year of getting it, our dog chewed the hell out of it.

As a matter of fact, I have no memory of ever playing with this DS, and my older brother barely remembers what the games were (lwk I'd also like to know what game that gameboy advance cartridge is, if y'all can even make it out from these pictures)

Yes, this is the clearest this picture can get unfortunately

Does this galaxy shell seem legit? Considering buying it (off marketplace) and these are the photos I have of it. The first one looks off, but could be sun faded or an issue with lighting?

Just looking for other’s thoughts. Thanks

Making it the best travel companion possible. I loaded thousands of mp3's onto the SD, Moonshell media player, all the Nintendo Libraries and also Sega Genesis and Mega Drive. Even put a little picture of me and my daughters for the Twighlight Menu background.
I'm going to change the battery in the DS to a more upgraded version as I've heard the original batteries can be a bit unstable. Gonna have to do a bit of studying up on that first. I do have a spare DS that i believe to have a new battery in it so probably just a case of swapping them over.
Kept me busy for a few hours and I seem to enjoy setting up consoles more than playing them at times lol

Discussion Anyone have screenshots or footage of "How to Evolve" mode in Honeycomb Beat?

3 Upvotes

I recently beat Honeycomb Beat, an obscure DS puzzle game, and have everything unlocked, except for a hidden mode allegedly called "How to Evolve" which has a difficult requirement where you must simultaneously clear 10 lines and clear a puzzle on the title screen, which got me interested.

Anyone have screenshots or footage of that game mode?

Thanks

Just got refurbished NDS lite from China, and it's messy. Almost all the buttons don't work properly, you shoul press very hard to have any effect. Changed the membranes to the new ones that I had, things got a little bit better, but still messy, comparing to original DS that refurbished one is just a waste.

How do you play Mario vs Luigi (or co-op) mode in the regular 1 player story mode levels on New Super Mario Bros DS? I saw someone playing it on YouTube, but I can't seem to find out how they did it.

Help! (Question/Support) DS Lite top screen problem

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

Hi i recently I managed to get one of my Japanese DS Lite back. I heard that because of the humidity there, the screens can get a yellow tint , But I've already encountered two problems: firstly, the screen isn't displaying anything, so the game isn't showing up, and secondly, I've seen colored lines appear. And there's a lag on the bottom screen when u touch the screen

For example, I tested Tomodachi Collection and only the bottom screen was displayed. I wonder if it's more of a problem with a connection that came loose inside the console. Maybe ? Help me if u can thx ;;))))

Help! (Question/Support) Is my Childhood DSi Cooked?

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

Okay so hear me out. I’ve had this DSi since it came out in 2009. Over the years of playing as a child, I’d guess it probably got some water damage here and there because I took it everywhere. But I never had ANY issues with playing it, no freezes, no power issues, not even a button problem. Recently I started playing it again and noticed every now and then I would get an error message (shown in last photo) when turning on the console. This pops up when booting any game or app on the console, including the camera, photo album & settings. However sometimes the issue would go away and I could keep playing games. Eventually it came back and hasn’t gone away. I also noticed that the time in the top right corner was changing RAPIDLY and wouldn’t sit still on a number. Weird. I tear down my console like I’ve done with many others, and the only noticeable flaw I found was the top left ribbon cable and connector. (which is under the RIGHT shoulder button) It looked like corrosion, and was a lot worse than shown in the photo. This was only after I cleaned what I could. I put the console back together, and no luck.

I should also note- I did replace the WiFi card and that did not fix the issue. I also replaced the battery, and that did not fix the issue. Is it worth trying to fix?
