Hello everyone, thank you for taking the time to read this. I'll try to be clear and simple with this.
My papa has a blue DS FAT and I have a Coral Pink DS Lite, both of them has the upper screen problems.
DS FAT has the hinge all broken, actually you can separate the top screen from the bottom screen.
DS LITE has the hinge still in place and it turns on, but the slightest touch of the screen will turn it off.
Now, the questions that I have are:

1.- Where can I buy screen replacements on the Internet and what should I check when buying one?
2.- Is it worth it today to spend money on replacements to fix them?
3.- How difficult it is to replace the top screen?

Any help would be really appreciated.

1. https://www.ebay.com/b/DS-Original-Video-Game-Replacement-Display-LCD-Screens/171833/bn_73021742, you should check that the screen is legitimate and ask the seller if he can get them to work.
2. Depends if you want to save a broken console, replacement parts are very cheap!
3. Kinda hard for me though. Make sure to follow the iFixit guide https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Nintendo+DS+Upper+LCD+Screen+Replacement/1305
