DS/DS Lite/DSi/DSi XL Screen covers

In my earlier days as a gamer, even up until just a few years ago, I thought these things were garbage. Useless, even.

Then, the boy came along. He certainly doesn't mind eating 16 slices of pepperoni, and then manhandling his DS phat.

So, I at first would vigorously clean them when I noticed a smudging. Then I remembered: "those useless screen protectors!!!"

Put them on. Ugh, now I remember why they were shit- They bubble and blur the initial screen. But, for him, it was good enough.

In short- if you're an adult who has trouble keeping things clean, odds are you need more than these screen protectors. But for parents of uber-young gamers, these are legit.

Cheap screen protectors are shit. But there are brands that are awesome...

check them out. pricier but so worth it.

I know a guy at work that put them on his. He did eat a lot while playing his DS Lite so I guess he needed to protect his DS Lite from his snacking habits/greasy fingers. They definitely were the cheapies because it looked like crap.

I gave my daughter my DS Phat and used to clean it from time to time when it got too messy. Now with a cracked hinge and sticky buttons, a smudgy screen would be the least of its problems. I don't even bother cleaning it anymore. I just let her do whatever to it.
