I recently got a burgundy DSi XL which I love. But it has a couple minor scratches, and some wear on the bottom screen especially. Likely from the stylus. I went to look at another blue DSi XL locally and it had the same wear pattern.

It's totally usable and the scratches aren't even visible unless it's a black screen. But it bothers my OCD a bit. I've ordered a soft tip stylus to reduce any future wear. But can you find used ones without any screen wear or is that just how they turn out after so many years?

I have a DSi XL and a DS Lite. Playing around with them and trying to figure my playlist for each console. The DSi XL is better overall ergonomically and with the bigger and better screens. But some games may feel better on the smaller system. What is your experience?

Been enjoying Mario Kart on the DS Lite as it looks kind of blocky on the big screen. And it's fun to play for 15 minutes here or there. I imagine little games like Picross would be good too. Maybe Hotel Dusk is better for holding it sideways? What else?
