Whenever I power on my DS Phat Model No. NTR-001, the following will occur:

1. Power indicator lights up normally.
2. Top Screen: Nintendo DS logo, with normal animation. White background.
Bottom Screen: Nothing except white background.
3. Nothing except white on both screens, stays white until power off.

Any fixes?

So on top screen the Nintendo DS logo disappears automatically and then both screens are white?
Sounds like an autoboot. Are you sure nothing is inserted in the card slot-1?

Yes. And when I put in Pokemon HeartGold, the same thing happens, except the top screen will have Nintendo with the DS animation. Nothing changes when I put in Metroid Fusion (a GBA game).

    well actually
    a new console won't do anything right now, because the games are still in development, that's why there are few games being released
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it won't make the games finish any faster

    2/3rds of launch titles for the Switch 2 will just be lazy ports of Switch games anyway.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
