3DS or Vita?

They could also get rid of the elevated frame around the touchscreen. I dunno if this happens to you guys as well, but after awhile, the elevated frame around the touch screen would progressively build a square mark on the top screen.

It must be a 3DS-only issue, my DS Lite has that elevated frame but it never made a mark on my DS.

Mine can do that but only if pressure is being applied to the 3DS while closed. Only happens if I have it in my pocket while crouching or climbing or something. Sometimes driving.

Nintendo apparently addressed this issue about a year ago though, models made after a certain date have slightly longer rubber stoppers so if you bought your 3DS a bit later you probably will never see it.

Also 3G and 4G require paying to be able to access them on the 3DS. Both Nintendo and you paying. It's not worth it

[Shizuka]

Maybe you can identify that through the model serial code or something?

I kept that little styro sheet (it was there when I bought the 3DS), and a thin wipe-cloth in between the screens, so I never had the problem. I have heard of it before I picked up the 3DS though, which is why do it.

[Dogi]

I've heard of people doing that. It just wipes off for me so I don't worry about it. I usually carry a microfiber cloth around anyway

Is it like those DS Lites that used to have that crack? Mine's almost like this:

Well Vita looks to have been mostly ignored by Sony during their press conference, so things aren't looking very good for it atm.

This. Sony even admitted after E3 that they neglected to mention new Vita games that were coming out.

Sony is basically killing their own product with these stupid decisions.

No Shizuka, it's just little marks on the top screen kind of like you slide a fingernail down it while wet or something. Wipes right off, doesn't do any damage to the screen.
