1) They easily scratch. The top screen protector scratched from wiping dust off, something the DS screen will not do itself. Why play with a scratched screen protector over your screen....

2)The top screen portector has a light adhesive that is not very noticeable...until you take it off. 30 minutes of rubbing alcohol FINALLY got off the adhesive left on the DS from the screen protector.

3) The touch screen is FAR LESS responsive with the screen protector. I did not know how lightly you could touch the screen until I took the screen protector off of my touch screen.

Basically save your $5 and do not buy this product. My loss can be your gain.

Do not buy Pelican DS screen protectors!

I've heard this from many people. But thanks. I hope you reach some people who don't know about these.

Re: RE: Sleep mode

I am very unhappy with the product. I even bought Pelican styluses (the Nintendo ones were sold out) and I am now kind of scared to use them due to the performance of the screen protectors.

Anyone Have or Know Specifics on the DS Wireless Booster?

Here's a cool tip. It can not only replace your stylus, clean your screen while you play, and clean out your ear, but it is also very comfortable to hold and easily replaceable. No Joke! Just use a Q-TIP!! (If you don't know what a q-tip is, maybe you call it a cotton swab)

Yeah...I've heard about this, but I don't think we have to be this careful. Plus, it looks weird.

Last time I tried that (the only time as a matter of fact) it put a bunch of cotton remains on my screen...

The moral of the story is: never by third party peripherals. EVER. I don't think I've bought anything unofficial that has been worthwhile. Heck, Pro Action Replay cost me a new 30 dollar PS2 memory card. Wasn't too happen about that one...

RE: Re: RE: Do not buy Pelican DS screen protectors!

Don't write all of them off. I loved this case I had for my GBC. It was like a rubber skin that fit perfectly on my gameboy, but it didn't cover any of the ports or the batery cover, so I could still use my batery pack. I still have my GBC around, scratchless, because of that thing. Hmm, I really do need to get some sort of case or skin for my ds. I have heard that unsightly scratches can appear on the outside if you are not careful...

Thanks because I was sure going to get them. You're a lifesaver.
