Hello

I picked up a brand new XL today, its been in the charger until now when i first powered it on.

I now notice that the top screen is flopping back and forth, even when its "clicked" into place. When playing the system i can feel the weight of the screen bouncing back and forth between the two " stoppers".
I should return the system right ?
Didn`t have this problem on my dslite.

My DSi XL does that once I bought it after when it was launched so I'm sure it's fine like all other DSi XL's.

My DSI XL does that as well . It's normal as long as it's not extremly flopping around. I E = closes by flopping.

I bought my DSi XL on launch, and it's been through quite a lot of abuse. The top half flops just like yours, but it doesn't close or anything like that unless I really shake it hard.

Same thing here since the first day I bought it. It looks like all dsi xl are like that. I don't feel it moving when playing but if I stand up etc it moves and you can feel it.

I feel as if it wobbles due to the added weight (and the small hinge. It's the same size as the regular DSi's hinge, although it's probably not as weak as the DS lite considering that they improved it a lot when the DSi came out).

hmm, guess its supposed to be that way, just feels a bit strange compared to my old lite.

Thanks all

    It could get banned from PSN but you can change your ID I think?

    also gonna install twilight menu in my r4 flashcard
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Try Wood firmware
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    For your R4
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    nvm it does support mine
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    but why choose it over ysmenu @Psionic Roshambo?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    bc im stupid?

    good night
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
