Retro News & Chat / Re: Had anyone replaced the DS Lite shell before?

« on: February 27, 2016, 09:49:40 AM »

Hi, I had a go at putting a new shell on my son's ds lite because of a broken hinge.
It was quite straight forward but you have to watch out for the ribbon cables. I damaged mine when doing it so I lost sound and then after a few months it died completely. If I could do it again I would be quite sure that I could pull it off though.

There was a decent video on youtube about it, I will have a look and post if I find it.

Guys, Thanks for the kind words, @zapiy  is right about our deliberate demarcation of seasons, Keith and Dan put lots of effort into RVG.

We enjoyed making this and I have some recordings to make for the next one now!
Also we welcome contributions no matter what they are as RVG is an eclectic mix of many people that share the same interests.

Thanks to @Greyfox  and @harryyack for the art work, it has been a true team effort.

Hold on to your remotes! its a Teletext podcast, it's better than my wife's 22" Bush.

"But guys," we hear you cry. "How on earth can you represent teletext, a naturally silent medium, in audio form?" Well, Carl and Dan weren't quite sure at first but, thanks to an unnatural determination when it comes to telemetext, began fumbling blindly for 'relevant' topics. And do you know what? I don't think they had any problems finding talking points... I'll let you be the judge of that, however.
