I can't find info on this anywhere on the internet. All people have to say is "some ds lites have ghosting and some don't".
Please help.

Never heard of it (and without an actual picture there isn't much to comment on), but it sounds like misadjusted bias voltage (the adjustments under the battery cover) or very cold temperature?

Of course if you're buying for yourself, always check for your satisfaction as soon as possible :)

90% of ds lites have horrible ghosting, just like the sp 101.

I think the question might be:
Are you bothered by a DS Lite screen in action?

Honestly I was always fine with them. What came before the DS Lite was horrid by comparison. 'Ghosting' never bothered me for years...well before I heard the term defined. When I found out: "Oh yes, so it does that", I thought. It never bothered me one bit.

..and still doesn't.

The only screen that ever bothered me was the downgrade from the PSP 2000 series to the 3000 series PSP. Sony were selling that crap as 'more vivid'. You can read up all about that. Still, many were not bothered by the 'scanline' issue. I was. The 2000-series had a better LCD.

It can and should be noted that the DS Lite screens were overdue for a pixel upgrade for many years...but that's Nintendo for you. Ghosting for me = non-issue.

I don't care either. My ds lite has ghosting, and it's very visible, but I even think it looks kinda cool. I just wanted to know

    @Sicklyboy - the comparison would be forgiving all medical debt, not making healthcare illegal!

    College costs, college loans, book prices, the entire thing is predatory, oft touted as essential to a successful life for my generation and the ones since, and completely unaffordable without putting you through an insane financial hardship for literal decades in many situations.

    It's important for society to be healthy and educated. If those things can't happen because all of the institutions that prop up those industries make it unattainable for all but a small portion of society, then your society is largely going to be disease ridden, dying, and uneducated in very short order.

    Issue is it's too rich of a coperation already with bad sugar diets causing diabetes and killing teeth a new set of teeth around 90k
  • cearp @ cearp:
    I agree it's not easy for the average American, let alone the ones below that average. Free / cheaper healthcare is much more important I think than free university education.
    Of course like @mthrnite said, why not both. But I doubt both will get solved at once, and surely healthcare is top priority.

    @K3Nv2 that's crazily expensive. how long will that take to pay off?

    Although diet is largely education, people don't need to go to university to learn what's healthy and what's not,
    it's the whole country, big corporations and advertising that is to blame for leading most of the population to believe that poptarts and froot loops are healthy to feed a child
