My White DS Lite needed a shell replacement, so i buyed from some Ebay-Seller a Zelda Case for 9€.
And it is shit. Pure shit. The screws, the Stylus-holder, the hinge, the buttons...

Now my screen has some white dots that look like if you pressed something on it, maybe it is from the plastic tool that i used to remove this shit glue from that touchscreen top thing. (I think i need such a thing too, i will live with that dots :/)

Back to topic, do you know good shell replacements? (color for now doesn't matter, but a Gold/Zelda Edition is preferable)

I bought multiple ones on aliexpress that work fine for me an feel good. One is a zelda special edition case, another a black pokemon one and the latest one I bought is a crystal clear one.

I used the original hinges and screws from my original case, the cases come without hinges and the screws are low quality (they felt like they would strip easily)

Ok, prob. will get this case... (Or could you give me a link of the Zelda Case if it was good?)
I fucked up some screws, hopefully it will work...

And btw, i need something like this, a screen digitizer: aliexpress.com
Is it good? Or can i get something better?

For the screen digitizer I just recommend buying one where a lot of people already purchased it. In my case I had to replace a few top screens for the ds lite and bought them from a seller on ebay who looked like they had good feedback and sold multiple units already. I feel as though it gives them more credit compared to others, in my opinion. Try looking for some on ebay

I already bought this: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Dig...32826016136.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.7l8kwR

But: I can't find a adhesive for the digitizer... (I'm already searched for some days)
If someone knows where i can buy such a adhesive, please tell me ._.

    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
