Nintendo DS No power help!

[Meshuggah27]

I have just recently got a nintendo ds. It has suffered no physical damage (Dropping, slamming,slamming the screen closed) but it will not power on or charge anymore. I really dont know what to do. I changed the battery with my working ds's one and still no luck. Can someone help?! :(

Well hopefully you got the DS recent enough to return it. Otherwise I don't know what you can do beside contacting Nintendo's customer service about it.

have you opened it and cleaned it. consoles of nintendo often require cleaning due to their poor heat disapation. espicially the gamecube
