Are you kidding? My DS has been knocked by kids from tables and shelves onto hard tiled ground and come out without a scratch. The only screen breaking happens when you try and play with a nail or chisel or some shizz.

My old DS has been through a lot and yeah, it might not look nice, but it plays exactly like it did the first day I had it. My DS Lite is still in perfect condition.

Broken or traded in. 5 year-old DS consoles don't look very nice these days. I'd say quite a lot have been thrown out.

You honestly think 400,000-500,000 DSs are broken? There'd be a hell of an outcry if that were true.

I'd say a fifth or even a quarter are either a) broken or b) sitting out the back of an EB/GAME store traded in. They are flimsy little things with their easily breakable screens and their terribad hinges.

That's a shitload of DS' for Australia.

Never seen weeks measured so highly! 221!
