These steps are not the actual Nintendo DS Repair itself but it will pretty sure give you an overview and see what is wrong with your gaming console.

1.First, take note of what is damaged. If it is a crack, then probably a change in case can solve the problem. But if it is something more serious like a damaged LCD or a Nintendo DS that won't turn on, then the damage needs more attention.

2.If you need to open up your Nintendo DS for repair, then it would be most advisable if you ask an adult do it for you (if you are a kid). An adult will be able to handle the gaming gadget better and know the risks involved.

3.Before opening it for a do-it-yourself Nintendo DS repair, you need to get some instruments. First is to get a small screwdriver that is the same size of your Nintendo DS screws. Another thing needed is a towel or cloth which you can use as a mat for your work area. This helps to prevent making scratches on your Nintendo DS and also to easily see the small screws and parts.

4.Now, you can remove the 7 screws at the bottom of your DS. Inside, there would be another four screws which are also needed to be unscrewed.

After opening your DS, you or your family is now ready to see the inside and assess the damage. It is important that you have a step-by-step guide in solving specific problems and in troubleshooting Nintendo DS errors. Nintendo DS repair guides are available in some offline stores but I can say that online, you can find more resources.

Another important point is that if you think that your gadget needs a serious Nintendo DS repair then do not take the risk of doing it yourself. Prying excessively into your Nintendo DS without any knowledge or sufficient experience in fixing it can probably worsen the damage. If you are not 100% confident that you or someone you know can troubleshoot, then the best option to do is to bring your Nintendo DS to an authorized Nintendo Repair Shop.
