Rare, Broken Nintendo DSi - Only 8,000 Made - Let's Fix It! I paid $1,000 for this rare, broken Nintendo DSi. The seller said the top screen was broken but... that wasn't the only issue. Can I get it working again by replacing the defective parts? I sure hope so!

Welcome to the DSi repair club! An exclusive group of people brave enough to tackle a DSi screen / ribbon / case / component disassembly nightmare.... Job well done!
Not that hard BRO 😅
😂
Im trying to mod my dsi with usb c port what screwdriver do I need
@@ryuga528 I use a screwdriver (1.5) (2.0) in a cross shape and 1.5 in the shape of a Y, because when I repair, I also find screws like that.
@@Im-building-stuff about that....
Nick Robinson did a whole video exposé on the McDonald's DSI and training cartridge 2 years ago. He even dumped the rom online so anyone can play it, prior to that it wasn't available.
I second this, that was an insane video and would recommend it!
@@ChrisEpp Link to the video from Nick Robinson: ruclips.net/video/-e6xOBCAVvA/видео.html
His video is amazing!
Cool! Haven't seen that one.
Indeed. Such a good video. I was so surprised that Steve got his hands on one of these!
When swapping out these screen you really need to calibrate them to fix the flicker on them. It may not be as obvious in person. There is 2 potentiometers on the bottom under the battery cover that you can adjust to get the LCDs looking perfect again.
No need to. The flicker can only be seen on camera, not in person.
@@Zoldier92 It depends on how bad it is, I refurbish Nintendo consoles myself and always calibrate them using the official Nintendo Aging cartridge. Not all of them look as bad but if you run the tester, you can see just how bad some of them are.
It impresses me in how you can find all these rare consoles, the retro future is also very good at finding them. Love your work
Now this is what I live for! When I thought I’ve seen it all you come along surprising me every time with these rare models!
So good to hear! Glad you're enjoying these!
This was like watching open heart surgery 😨 So relieved that you were able to save this cool piece of history
Ha, ha, I'm so glad I was able to fix it too. These old handhelds are so cool!
The Retro Future and TronicsFix, the crossover we all have been waiting for. Ifixit can't wait to sponsor.
Every little click and snap sound made while taking the mc donalds dsi apart must have made your heart stop.
Great repair Steve!
Ha, ha, I was a little anxious during this repair
I'm here because someone broke something, so now I can see it be fixed.....hopefully! Nice one, Steve.
Ha, ha....hopefully!
I always admire how you curse a lot less than I would during these repairs.
Lol
They call that editing!
Been watching you for a while now. Truly appreciate how honest you are along with the passion you have. Wish there was more repair techs like you. Totally wish I had even a smidge of the knowledge you have
Great video Streve! Thank you for the mention. Lets cook some burgers!
Loved your video as well! Lol, burgers it is!
I really miss stuff like this existing... Never happen again. The ubiquity of smartphones have all but guaranteed any such thing would be a phone app.
Yes, this cool stuff is going away too fast
That wasn't nerve reacking at all, everytime I heard plastic snaps, I audibly gasped. Well done!
Ha, ha. I was a little nervous during this repair!
Love see you fixing stuff Steve, no matter what it is.. you always have me in awe.. have you ever worked on atari Lynx's??
My Anxiety Levels When You Were Putting The Ribbon Cable In Through The Hinge 📈📈📈📈📈📈
Whoa, look at the buldge on that one.
Had no idea these existed. I'm loving it.
One of your videos popped up I'm my feed. Been binge watching them over the last week. Awesome work.
A SPICY PILLOW!! I LOVE IT, absolutely using that from now on
Looking at how the screen and ribbon cables assembled in DSi and how meticulous and tedious the job is, makes you AT LEAST wonder and appreciates how are the production operators in the Nintendo assembly line done them, right? I mean, how many UPH (Unit Per Hour) produced with this kind of setup.
Of all your videos that I watch, the ones that have this part of running the cables on the Nintendo DS is the one that worries me the most. The difficulty seems to be high!
Would you consider making a video showing the gear you use to fix all these things? I have a soldering iron, but the tips I have certainly wouldn't work on some of the super small stuff you work on. It's barely passable for soldering RGB light strips together! Would love to know what all you've got in your shop to fix things!
Man Steve! I remember getting a DSI for Christmas of 2008!! Those were the days man. Fantastic job fixing this one! Any DS console top screen repair is the hardest repair ever imo lol
Such cool handhelds. I never owned one as a kid but I get plenty of them now, lol!
I remember having a DSI and was liquid damaged but after drying out started working again! sold it to half price books since I have a 2ds XL!
Made me so nervous removing that top case 😩... I used my spouses hair dryer to remove similar items and even that works well enough to get these items loose! Regardless, awesome video 😁
Imagine this coming with a Happy Meal!
Lol, that would be so cool!
watching you doing this hinge ribbon cable thing gives me ptsd. 😆 Great Videos Man.
Replacing top screens on Ds's (any model of DS or 3DS) is the most exhausting thing to do... such an hassle... but on the best handhelds ever made... it's always an odd feeling to repair theses
I bought DSi LL myself. Japanese consoles do not have an option to change the language, but you can mod the console and patch it. DSi are very easy to mod (you just need an SD card), but you might want to keep it the way it is.
I'd love a vid that shows what you do with items after repair.
I've been needing to do this to my pokemon black and white dsi. The displays got messed up due to moisture, but the rest of the console works perfectly. I even have an extra dsi for parts, but I lacked the confidence. After watching this , i might finally give it a shot.
Now fix the rarest McDonalds training game on for the icing of the cake if you can find one for parts on Ebay some day.
That would be amazing!
You sounded a little ill in this vid, hope you're feeling better soon
Taking a picture of the cabling setup while recording a video, my man!
I do that because then I don't have to stop filming, take out the SD card, take it to my computer, find the clip out of large amounts of footage, watch it, then take the card back, put it in the camera and start filming again. Seems like a whole lot easier to just snap a couple of photos of exactly what I need with my phone that's just sitting right next to me. But hey what would I know, lol
Awesome dedication, well done.
I wonder how long it takes to manufacture one these when you have done it hundreds of times
I also have a working McDonald's DSi and all three cartridges!
Super cool repair!
Nice job,it looks great! 19:41 on US and European consoles you can change the language but on Japanese ones you can't
Hopefully the Japanese version of the DSi will at least allow you to play English games (and other games in English), if you've played with the DSi a lot then you should hopefully know what each menu does!
OMG routing the cables must've been a nightmare. Great video as always.
Yes, not the most fun I've had
You sound a bit under the weather during this one, I get the feeling it was a bit of struggle. Thanks for another great upload, especially if you were poorly.
I purchased my first iFixit toolkit thanks to this channel. Wonderful quality at great price. Thank you for suggestions! Look forward to dismantling many laptops and making them work even less than they did before... #techlife! Question: What's the most expensive thing you've accidentally broken beyond repair when the repair was otherwise reasonably simple, just by honest mistake?
You always amaze me mate, i just got the inspiration to fix my C64 and it's working now. So thank you for everything
Almost like an organ transplant surgeon 👍 Things become easy when you watch the work of someone who is excellent in his field and knows what he is doing. Great work, keep it up.
A couple of Edge of the Seat moments there, phew!
Have you ever considered using masking tape to keep the ribbon cables wrapped? It’s what I normally do so they stay together. Just a helpful tip
Nice dsi only you need now is the cartridge of training and a code for the cartridge if remember correctly are unique
I had the clamshell game & watch waaaaay back in the day and these days I find myself on ebay for far too long looking up all things dual screen. Nintendo gets you hooked when your young and the addiction remains in you as you mature!
This one was kinda nerve wracking. Good job!
A true master of his craft. Reminds me of when the PS4 came out and I replaced the HDD on my own. I felt like king crap so I tried to put a Craigslist ad to replace other people's HDD. I got ZERO responses lol
Crazy steve has done it again
Can you do a repair tutorial on how to replace the broken plastic clips from the ribbon cables?
(Dealing with some rn and its a pain...)
Use Rotico for the glass and other little bits that like to stick around. Great video.
sounds like your getting a cold steve really like this type of video great work
I was getting over being sick in this video. Glad you enjoyed!
I found my Nintendo DS that still works despite having a broken hinge and the moisture indicator show that it has water damage, it's going to need a new shell. This is what needs to be replaced; the battery, it's starting to swell, the bottom screen is really scratched up, the speaker doesn't sound right anymore. The card reader need to be checked to if it needs to be either replaced or cleaned. It needs a full tear down to see what other problems it may have on the inside because of the water damage. It does not have a stylus pen or the charger.
This is awesome! However, you might want to turn off autofocus lol
The retro future and TronicsFix
Two of my favorite RUclipsrs 🕺
Can’t stop watching your videos
See a doctor. Great help for that.
So glad you're enjoying them!
thank you for using the correct terminology 'spicy pillow' haha. +1 for watching nick robinsons video and playing the software yourself it's fun
I would have loved to be there when you got it powered up. I probably could have helped with translation
Someone should send you the McDonald’s ice cream machine next!!!
I've looked for a broken one but sadly they aren't usually available anywhere.
@@Tronicsfix according to internet memes they are EVERYWHERE!!! 😂😂😂
Lol. that's true...just not for sale!
3:08 would have been a perfect segway into sponsor read, since iFixIt (iirc) has repair guides and detailed instructions on disassembly and assembly.
I came from the cod3r channel thank you for sending him ps4 motherboard although he couldn't fix it but he did an interesting video on it
Brave man! DSis are so brutal. Great repair!
If anyone wants more information about the game and the console i suggest everyone to watch Nick Robinson's videos about the Mc Dsi and training game.
I got a special edition dsi and had to do this. this is a nice tip for others to who arnt comfortable going deep into the repair. like this one mine was also black. I just bought another black one in good condition and put my top shell and bottom shell onto it. then tadaa like new again! lol. and if its Japanese you can swap the main boards. just keep the one you removed if its a special one for later down road.
Love seeing the Cod bo3 special edition ps4s
Loved Elliot's Video and love your video fixing it.
On the Nintendo DSi Menu, use the stylus to select the Settings (wrench) icon.
Select the right arrow thee times to go to page 4, then select Language.
Select from the options options on the screen: English. ...
Select OK (the bottom-right button) to confirm and return to the System Settings.
Ya, that doesn't work on the Japanese versions
Just the right amount of thermal paste Steve
Hello, I love watching you repair stuff lol. I have a DS I bought new back in like 07 that when opened all the way the speakers stop working, but when half open they work. Gotta be a wire caught in the hinge. Wanna fix it for me? 😅
I think the wrench icon app is the settings
Late, but im an American, I can identify the mcdonalds logo no matter how much you censor it lol
What was the flickering on the bottom screen? Was that just because of the camera?
That was you blinking. You should get that checked.
Yep, camera
We need to get the retro future VS, going 🙌✌️❤️
I fricken hate replacing the top screen because of the terrible ribbon design that can be damaged with little to no effort during installation.
Did that come with fries?
Not gonna lie: I always have an anxiety spike seeing DSi and 3DS hinge jobs.
Changed my 3DS to screen once, never again, with my sausage fingers.
That's a difficult repair!
Curious when will you be on whatnot again???? Love the vids!
Kind of feel Nick Robinson deserved a mention here.
I would have if I would have known about him. Just finding out about him in these comments
@@Tronicsfix That's fair. You should give him a watch. He really does go above and beyond to produce compelling content.
My all life console was a blue DSI which even nowadays I still play. This video hurted haha
I’m lovin it . Great repair
Awesome fix Steve.
Thanks 👍
Yea one big mac with a Nintendo DSi please!
Nice Steve, are you planning on keeping this DSI, I would if I were you,
Undecided. It's definitely a cool one though
I always thought that you said non-good but you actually say known-good hahahahahaha
Getting that ribbon cable through the hinge is so frustrating I can hardly watch someone else do it.
as always ste the clues are in the details nice video .
“Spicy pillow” 😂
When I was growing up in MN there was a radio station that played this recording from an Mc Donalds drive through and the guy went off the handle screaming "get your Mc head out of your Mc ass" or something like that and it cracks me up when I think about it. 🤣🤣🤣 My dad used to say it all the time.
For my dsi, there is some rust on the cpu and i would like some help to remove the rust.
This so cool that you got one
Yes! I enjoyed fixing this one
Do you know where I can get some of that BW100 that you used in that one short to fix that drifting xbox analog stick?
Love your repairs
Thanks! Glad you enjoy
Never would have imagined something like that was made.
Yes! This is such a cool handheld!
That’s a delicate repair. Definitely on the edge of my seat for the screen removals on the black model.
Rolex made Domino's Pizza Watches.
@@fg.vieira nope, it was made by a third party. And I think Rolex themselves don’t even classify it as a Rolex.
how do you clean the metal hinges?
A Japanese DS is only avail in JP. you can flash the firmware on it, so thats the only way to get english (I have 3DS LL / Speak Japanese)
After just fixing the left & right trigger buttons on my dsi & 3ds I left the pain of trying to get the dsi bk together, they are so fidgety esp wen you got large fingers like me…..
I had a question I have a original Xbox and it refuses to read any disc what's the best disc drive to replace it with?
I don't understand how the screens on these get broken, other than abuse. It's a clamshell, if you dropped it hard enough to damage the screen it would also severely damage the case.
Did you tried to click the arrow on DSi thru your camera?
Me externally: 😀
Me internally: the bezel is crooked the bezel is crooked the bezel is crooked the bezel is crooked
