Either dead pixels or cracks. It is kinda funny when the Nintendo Reps pull up my record for the walk-in service. Also my Toys R Us receipt has so many scribbles that it is hard to make out what I originally bought...

the only thing i've noticed that's "wrong" with mine is the volume button is pretty loose, but that might be normal.

I'm still on my first, and the only problem with it is the finger prints and some scuffed up corners from all the time's I've dropped it/thrown it at the wall after coming .004 seconds behind the staff ghost in MKDS.

see this is why we need to stick with the regular DS. All the DS Lite has is a brighter screen and bigger stylus. And hardware issues...

I have two DS lites. My white one was bought on day one with a cracked hinge, it's never gotten any worse and beyond that it's perfect. My Black one was bought on launch day for the onyx ones and it perfect. Between the two they get about 3 to 4 hours of play everyday and neither have problems at all.

I'm on my second one. My first DS lite which I bought at launch had a stuck pixel, a yellow tinted touch screen and a huge crack on the left hinge. I sent it to nintendo and they sent me what looked like a perfect ds lite, but just a few days ago I found out that a crack is starting to form on the left hinge. I am staring to believe that the DS lite is such a big seller because of all of the replacements people have to buy. I think that if my DS breaks completely I might have to switch to PSP.

That's what I was thinking.

I agree with the guys who say they've had the same DS forever...my little nephew is 6 now, and he's had his DS almost a year...you either are throwing your ds into a wall or are paid by sony. #1 thing to remember that the sony psp is breakable on touch, and i mean that. nintendo ds rocks your pants off and you should NOT throw your ds against walls anymore.

You buy an extended warranty each time you get an exchange?

That doesnt ring true as the warranty would also cover any replacements they give you under the original warranty.

You also traded your DS and 8 games in December and this is your first post here since then.
