I've been having problems with my DSi's shoulder buttons for awhile....Granville (I believe) told me this nice trick to blow into them. That worked for a real long time, but now my L button doens't work at all and my R button is spotty. Is there anything I can do that doesn't involve me sending the DSi to nintendo or buying a new one.

Try to buy canned air, instead of blowing into it.

i saw a youtube video in which the guy taps the back of the ds below the buttons... it did make a difference actually
if it completely doesnt work then i suggest u "carefully" open your DS
