Hi everyone! Looking for some advice on this one.
I had a few questions.
OK, my friend is a bit...abusive...with his video game hardware. His DS is pretty scuffed up casing (serial # is gone, which is why he can't get it repaired), bottom screened is "Ouendan'd" with scratches, and the right button/trigger doesn't work. The hinge is very loose.
Otherwise (yes, I didn't name every component
), the other components work.
Now, he has given me the DS Lite for free, and I am wondering whether I should leave it be or repair it.
So, I'm looking at:
-Case replacement
-Lower screen (do you only have to replace the shield?)
-Right and left trigger replacement. He's really hard on both, and I'm just going to replace both.
Here is where I have a few questions?
-How involved is this/easy to screw up? I don't mind spending time, but if it's nearly impossible to do...I built my own desktop from scratch, so I do know how to put things together a bit.
-Is it economical?
-Any recommendation on components? I've read rave reviews for the Shock cases, and extremely negative ones... and where I can get them?
Sorry for all of the questions
