ive had my ds for about 4 month now and its been used very well and been playing The World Ends With you alot in the past week
GE64 kindly shipped it with screen protectors already fitted (the plastic ones)
and today i was playing and i kept hearing a scraping sound when i loked at my ds
my stylus was badly scraping the bottom screen like when you scrape a pin on a plastic layer it looks realy badly damaged
so i removed the screen proyctor and heres what it look like
the image quality was bad but as you see the center is badly damaged its actually worse than that



and heres what my ds touch screen looks like after it was removed




it still brand new :D
screen protectors rock just ned to buy a new one until then im gonna cut my topscreen protector so its the same ize as my bottom one
ad use it as a temp replace


i advise if you by a ds brand new get a screen protector
too bad rhys ds has never had one so its already scratched teh hell

yeah those do come in handy... if you dont suck at putting them on like my friend leroy. it was uneven so on the sides if i needed to use the stylist, it wouldnt work... but if they are right then they pwn.

This is why imma buy a new DS this summer. After so long of having it, my power button has become clunky, and the screen is pretty messed up, though, nothing really serious... that and I want to give it a 'custom paint job' and testing it on the old DS will make sure it's alright for the new one

When I bought the cleaning cloth it came with some screen protectors and they sucked.

Perhaps I didn't put them on correctly though..I'll see if I can find them again as unfortunately the screen scratches a bit. However, in my case it's nothing serious and you can't really tell unless the device is off and you stare closely at it. That yellowish tint gets annoying though.

I don't have screen protectors for mine, but it doesn't seem to get scratched as long as I take damp tissue and clean it often. I was going to post a picture, but you can't see that one small scratch I have near the center. I hated it when it happened. But I would get a new screen saver, man. Once that screen is scratched, there is no easy way to fix it.
