how bad is black ds lite?

[Lkr]

i'm wondering how bad it is. i might get one eventually, and i want to know how bad it is.

[alex]

i assume by saying "bad" you mean good or cool

well anyway i have one and i think it is well worth having and prefer it to the white one alteast but not worth getting another cloure ds lite if you already have one

(i can take some pics tommoro of mine if you want)

[Lkr]

well, i heard it scratches, loses paint, finger prints, etc very easily

.. Loses paing? Not hardly... Finger prints, yes. Scratches, not really. The surface compares to the PSPs easily, so you should know what to expect...

With good looks comes a drop in durability in most cases. I hope Nintendo doesn't keep it up, I want them to keep releasing quality durable products.

yea i have a ds lite and i have 2 send it for repairs... theres a ton of dead pixels and the hinges are way lose

[alex]

well mine is fine and i have had no problems with it since its release in the uk but just the other day i now have 2 dead pixles on the top screen but that is no problem as i just rang up game (our EB) and they will replace it np just need the reciet or my game card (a loyaty card for the shop)and there give me a new one on the spot.

What im anoyed about, on the lower right corner of my White DS Lite, jus the corner below the start/select buttons, theres a considerable amount of trapped dirt, which i dont know how it got there, kinda resembles dirt stuck between your finger nails i guess.

I've had mine for about... oh, a couple months now I guess, and no problems so far. I'll admit it feels a bit more fragile, but so far I've no evidence to corroborate this.

My brother owns a black Lite and personally it looks fantastic from the outside but when opening it up to see the screens and what not, it just looks way too plain and cheap, that may be personal preference but it's how I compare it to the even more sleek and stylish design of my White 'Lite.

I also have dirt on my Lite. I said so in my review of the hardware but it's getting worse. The thin strip of plastic seperating the top of the lower part of the DS (where the buttons are) to the GBA slot is coming adrift therefore allowing stupid bits of dirt, dust and any other crap to creep in.
