Right after filming a video about it, my Nintendo 2DS broke. I had it in my heavy schoolbag and the books probably pressured it until it cracked. But then i dropped it again to get 2 more cracks that intensify even if I'm shaking the 2DS. (Image 2)
Good news is that i only got it for 30€ so I didn't lose much. Now im thinking about replacing the broken screen with a screen of a 2DS i saw for 20€. The person says that it doesn't turn on because he dropped it, but the screen works. Should I do this? Are seperate screens cheaper anywhere?

just buy a new working one for 30 bucks...

the amount of work for replacing it isnt worth it, because o2ds are cheap
 
damn :/
wat a monster u r to break it ;O;

if you can find that cheap again (u lucky) buy it, idk how you would pay to replace the screen, do some searches on internet about it

I think I'm just gonna get the non-working one and try to swap the parts.

A brand new 2DS screen is $30.

My niece's 2DS screen broke and it was rather easy to replace due to it being a single screen. It is like opening a PSP, all components are flat within the device.

OP, I recommend just fixing the screen on your own 2DS. Screen for 2DS can be pricey in comparison to 3DS, but it is an easy job since you don't wrestle with hinges.
