My good old launch day DS Lite has had touch screen calibration issues in the upper right corner, and I finally got annoyed with it and tried the toothbrush cleaning method shown on Nintendo's web site. This actually made things much, much worse (maybe pushing the dirt even further under the lip of the screen?), and now the upper right quadrant of my touch screen is completely hosed.
So before I replace this thing, I thought I'd try to take it apart and clean the edges of the screen. I ordered the necessary screwdriver from play-asia, and am just waiting for it to show up to attempt this repair. So has anybody else had to do anything similar? What am I getting myself into?
I figure the best case scenario is that I fix my DS Lite for $5, and the worst case scenario is that I ruin a very nice Gameboy DS (that's what I call it now that it's only good for gameboy games).
