I was looking around DealExtreme and I found a set of replacement button contact pads for the D-pad, face buttons and Start/Select. My DS Lite's D-pad is beginning to act up (Down needs slightly more pressure than the other buttons to register) but I'm sick of sending it in for warranty every four months. Is it worth voiding my warranty to install these new contacts?
Instead of buying new contacts, just clean the old ones with alcohol and a QTIP.
If problem still occurs, then buy new contacts.
And I honestly don't know if replacing them voids it or not.
It might void since you have to open the DS. But if you don't break anything in the process, then it won't void.

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. -

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

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

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
