In... Out... ahh...

Wow. I just had an absolutely crazy moment starring my DSi that almost killed me. Just minutes ago my DSi was completely unresponsive to touch and D-pad controls. No matter what I did I could not get it to work. I was so freaked! I looked on the Nintendo.com website for troubleshooters and all throughout Bing but could not find my answer to my problem. Nintendo said "if it doesn't have anything to do with your game inside, then send it in for repairs" (basically, your screwed). Luckily I had the bright idea to remove the screen protector I had recently placed on it and tah-duh! (duh.) everything worked fine again. :)

This was the honest to god most terrifying moment I ever had with any DS. So as a reply, what is the most heart-stopping, terrifying moment you have ever had with your Nintendo DS?

P.S. Don't ever buy unofficial screen protectors.

My DS broke from one part of it's case, so when I closed and later opened it, it kind of, the part where the crack was opened wide.

It's in repairs currently, and will be coming back to my household in 5 days.

When I threw my ds down (yep smart move that) and I saw a little bit of plastic fly off. The hinge had broken. Luckily it still works though.

bahahah thats nothing compared to my scariest moment! It wouldnt even get my heart rate up if that stuff happened to me lol. Heres me story:

So I was taking my DSi apart to see if I had what it takes to case mod it. I was disconnecting a couple of the orange tape things from the white connectors that connect it with the circuit board. Then I put it back together and turned it on and the top screen wasfine but the bottom screen was just white :o. It lit up and everything but I couldnt see any images etc. So I took it apart and pushed the connecters back together etc and it worked :P.

One day when I was playing megaman ZX Advent, and my L button stopped working. I tried blowing on it, but it didn't work. so i turned it off, left it alone do something else. Later, I came back, and my screen started messing up, then it shut off (It was full power). when I tried to turn it back on it shut back off with a flash. I deduced it was a faulty wire because the top screen was acting funny. Luckily, I had warranty, and I got a gift card for $140, and I payed 40 extra dollars for a dsi! I like the dsi better than ds lite. so now I'm Happy :D

It's funny how some people can over react, like how I can get a panic attack if I can't find my TV remote.

Samething happend to me once to. I just sat there paralized for like 20 seconds :lol:. I have also had my DSi crash twice, still don't know why it did, it just stops responding all together...you cant even turn it off. I had to wait for a minute or two till it could turn it off. If it happens again I'm sending it in...

Mine was when my son, he was 2 at the time, apparently got a hold of mine. Just imagine my suprise when I walked into the bathroom to find my DS in the toilet.

No I am not making this up and No my DS did not work any longer.
