I've taken decent care of mine (now it's lost though) and it only had a few scratches on the back and screen from kids wanting to play it :facepalm:

Mine is in a good condition... except for the dust that accumulates seldomly on it.

I think that I take okay care of my ds, but after playing games like lost in blue and big brain my screen was pretty messed up and when I bought a new one, I put a screen protector on it and I have had it for a few years now... The screen is definitely one of the first things to go even if you do have a screen protector.

The L and R shoulder buttons are somewhat jammed, the sides are clean though. Both of the screens are shiny though

My Lite is in pretty good shape minus the small scratches on the touch screen but my original DS looks horrible XD There are so many scratches and the touch screen is horrible.

I have both an original DS and a DSLite. So far, my plain DS has had no problems cept a few minor scratches on the touch screen and a couple of dents on the outside from dropping it.My DSLite however, which I've only had for maybe 2 years, is already sorta breaking. The left trigger doesn't work anymore for some reason. =/Funnily enough though, is that after I bought my DSlite I tested out the durability of my original DS. You know, since it looks so bulky and durable. Anyway, I THREW the thing against a wall and it still seemed to work fine. :br:

I've had my DS for a couple of years now and it's still close to like new condition. :gs: I put Nerf Armor and screen protectors on it right out of the box. :gs: Also I always keep it in a travel case when I'm not using it and I keep a soft cloth handy.I've had to replace the lower screen protector a few times since I got my DS, some of the games I've played made me scratch right through it! Like Ninja Gaiden, man that game was intense sometimes.If brand new is a 10 then my DSLite is anywhere from a 9.5 to a 9.8 :gs:

Mine is brand new, tho minus screen protector.But its my second one, the first is knocking about in the cupboard, first the L and R buttons got chewed by my puppy, but it still worked, but then the touch screen went completely so has now been replaced.Next time I need a new one will be hopefully going for the 3Ds instead.Although next purchase from nintendo will be a Wii

I take pretty good care of my electronics, plus I have one of the clear shells on it. There are a few superficial scrapes on the shell and the lower screen protector is pretty marked up, but that's to be expected with a device like this.

my ds lite so far... i daresay is quite perfect and unscathed.. but i had to lend it to my girlfriend... and hopefully she hasn't harmed itwhen i bought my DSi.. i SWORE i'd take the best care of it.. i always had it in a case.. then put inside a pouch thing.. and somehow there's this weird indent on it.. like a tiny tiny spec was melted from it.. its weird and painful to see =[ i no longer have a perfect DSi and i got that dent pretty early in when i got my DSi

The flip feels a little floppy but its in mint condition other then that! I love my DS because its the first console i got myself! I tuck it up in a carry case each night and let not even bugs near it!The only damage is on the stylus lol! In like 2 years i have used like 30 stylus' i keep chewing them!

People have always said my DS looks new, but as the nit-picky owner of the DS I could see little specks of dust in some of the cracks. And there are definitely some scratches on the screens (which I really hate, since I thought I was treating the screens pretty well).Despite my reservations, I think my DS could be classified as "almost new".I saw my relative's DS and I don't know how long she's had it for, but her's is very broken. :[The top screen is all loose, one of the hinges fell off, and the touch screen is ruined (but still workable around the edges).I think her DS is a source of inspiration for me when it comes to good DS treatment.

The sound doesn't work, the screen is coming off, the R button is broken. I think I need a new one.
