I've had two faults develop on my DS lite. There is the crack on the left hinge that developes (http://www.n-central.com/modules/news/index.php?storytopic=16&start=75 Article with pictures).
As well as this, a small crack has started to develope on the other side of the hinge just below the R shoulder button.
My brother has the exact same cracks on his DS except his are further gone than mine. The left one is the same but on the right side the light unit has actually snapped off (http://kotaku.com/gaming/top/new-horrible-ds-lite-crack-193231.php).
Has anyone else had similar problems? Did Nintendo solve them free of charge or replace your console? Has the problem been fixed in newer DS Lites or should I just sell the old thing and get a DS Original?
I tried to do my own research and neither GameStation (The shop I bought my DS from) OR Nintendo Customer Services answered the phone. Great customer support there!
Thats my rant out the way, I'm going to pay a visit to the store I bought my DS Lite from tomorrow and complain until I get a replacement.
