If you have 2ds, can you check that is yours like this? Can you try to seperate front panel and case with your nail with a small force and check if it comes off like this?

I have bought this 2ds as new. And I put urgent to title because I have very small amount of time to return it.

Thank you.

to my untrained eye, looks like the outer shield is "crushed" in. maybe it is the camera angle? can't find my 2ds at the moment, but my dsi, o3ds, and 2 new 3ds xl's are all "smooth" (for a lack of a better term)

It's not crushed. Zoom in. It looks just like my 2ds. There are no signs of damage (on the charger port at least).

yeah my 2ds doesn't look like that, seems to be a defect... It shouldn't harm the system, just the appearance. If you think you can deal with it, I wouldn't go through the trouble of replacing it if I were you, but if it's unbearable then go ahead and get it replaced.

While I think you're being just a little anal, I can't judge because I used to return DS lites for stuff like a single dead pixel or loose button.

So just return it if it bothers you.

I think you did not see the first photo :)
I just do not want to take risk because after 5 days I will not be able to use any warranty service furthermore.

well seeing as you were already willing to accept it, I would say go for it, and you could just put a little spot of superglue on the bent part to hold it down on place

Thank you for response.

I am actually wondering if there is any screw attaching them. Maybe It is because of a screw that did not install properly.

The 2DS only has screws next to the right and left triggers but not in that particular area. Just plastic "clips" that snap in place where yours is separating.

    the legal drinking age here in the US is 21, as some of you may know, but i think either it should be 18 or the age you're an adult should be 21.

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and i know what you may be thinking, "why become an adult at 21? doesn't that mean that banging an 18 year old would be illegal?"
    first of all, being in a relationship with someone who's 18 is technically ok, as long as it started when they were 18, but the age gap is still weird depending on how old you are. besides, the age of consent differs between different states
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also my reasoning for adult age being 21 is because the reason that's the drinking (and now smoking) age is because it "gives them more time to think rationally and not drive drunk"
    so you should have that extra time to mature and think rationally before going to serve in the military or vote
    +1
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    tl;dr the "adult" age and the legal drinking age (and voting age) here in the US should be the same

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's all good no one pays attention to the law anyway lol
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What about making kids wait till 18 or 21 to drive? And yea is messed up, you can join army and die for your country at age 18, but you can't drink alcohol or smoke a cig til 21, is ridiculous
    +3
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    If someone is in the military they should be allowed to smoke and drink at 18.... Would help drive recruitment lol
    +3
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    We all know they do and will anyways. I think laws prevented them only pushes them to illegally do it. Even tho if was legal, most prob wouldn't even bother. Not a big deal or risque if its legal, no fun.

  • ZeroT21 @ ZeroT21:
    That's why some kids don't mind having a rap sheet or two just so they never get drafted

  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    also, i think the voting age should match the adult and drinking ages too, because by the logic of giving them time to mature and think rationally so they don't drive drunk, then they should also have that time to mature and think rationally so they can think for themselves

    because self deprecating humor is important, as long as it doesn't turn into self hate. because you can't really make fun of anyone if you can't even make fun of yourself
