Is there anything i can buy that will stop finger prints from shining all over the top screen? The slightest touch of it and it really shows.

Why are you touching the top screen at all...?
I'm not meaning too, when i'm opening the ds i may accidentally touch it and all of a sudden it's finger prints galore. It's mainly the black side parts around the screen where the speakers are though.

Chop their hands off and they can't leave fingerprints on the top screen then.

Wait...
Yeah that's a bit too much...
chopping the fingertips should be enough.

No but really I have microfiber cloths that I use like once a week to wipe prints and dust off but it's something that doesn't really get in the way, If you want it to stay clean longer you should consider TwinRetros instructional video and start practicing.

Actual pro-tip - Belkin, Zagg, and presumably many other companies make anti-smudge/anti-fingerprint screen protectors. Belkin makes universal (cut to fit) ones, I'm not sure if Zagg does, but that might be worth looking into. I'm sure it doesn't work 100%, but it's likely better than ones without that coating.

    It worked for me but it was a thick screw without nothing else covering the sides (except that transistor I accidentally broke off trying to remove the screw)
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @_Ruri_, they slip
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Hm, it makes sense. Nothing else comes to my mind then :/ I guess you have to either make efforts finding the right screwdriver or just give up
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @_Ruri_, I'd rather give up
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @Xdqwerty, I guess. No places that sell screwdrivers around?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @_Ruri_, not that I remember
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Oof. Maybe supermarkets sell them?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @_Ruri_, mmaybe
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    They should be pretty common screwdrivers so there's a chance
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Don't know about the tri-wing screwdrivers though
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    They're basically Nintendo exclusive from what I know so no chance you're gonna find them in random physical stores
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    The normal cross ones you could though so you can probably take out the back cover
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @_Ruri_, they don't seem to be tri wing screws
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    @Xdqwerty, You could have a chance to take out at least the back cover then

    Dunno about the insides though, never disassembled a 3ds
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Try checking out the iFixit guides

  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Huh according to the iFixit guides it doesn't seem like you need tri wing screwdrivers to disassemble the insides
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    That's pretty good news

  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Rest are standard Philips screwdrivers
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    And various spudgers but you could make-do with other stuff no problem
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    What's the issue again?
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb gonna shower
  • _Ruri_ @ _Ruri_:
    Okay see you

    @Xdqwerty, Dunno if you'll read this but I finished reading the story, I love the humor lol, and the idea of an incompetent hero with a smart kid is really particular, haven't seen it around much. Their dynamic kinda reminds me of Manzai (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manzai) humor, pretty cool
