My DSlite hinge is now broken.

[KoopaScooper]

It broke last night, I heard a loud snapping noise while opening my DS, and then my top screen started screwing up (most likely a wiring problem.) Now the screen won't hold up its own weight.

Broken hinge on the outside.


Screen messing up (R4 menu.)


Crack on the inside hinge.


I've got a basket full of repair items on a website, a Chrome Red case, a new Top Screen, and a new Touch Screen. The bottom screen is fine, so no need to replace it.

Same for me...

It just flops around, and I need to hold it open when I play.

Also, I have a red and black DS lite too

Strange, I've seen more than 20 stories online about their Red/Black DSlite hinges cracking.
Coincidence?

Mine is cracked also, it's red and black. I had an old black one that it's hinge broke open and messed up the top screen. Now it just shows a grey screen on the top.

but really, ds lites are cool and all, but DSi's are better IMO.

EDIT: I hope it doesn't break off for you.
