Removing the back panel is simple, provided you have the correct screwdriver. Nintendo uses a special Tri-point bit for the case, be sure you have one of these before disassembling!

I am currently doing this after my DS broke, and I just cannot get the screws out. My dad thinks they are too big, and I see they are stripped. Am I screwed?
Hi @theoskar, Sorry to hear you're having a hard time removing the screws from your DS. We put together a quick guide and video with a few tips you can try here. Stripped screws often happen when the tool doesn’t quite match the job, but the good news is that they’re easy to prevent with the right technique. If you haven’t already, take a look at our guide on screwdriver technique. We hope this helps!

Separate the back from the front, and set it aside.
If some of your screws spin free but can’t be removed, it maybe that the screw posts have separated from the shell.
This makes separating the back panel more difficult, but it will still work.
The plastic used for the original silver nds may be the most prone to the UV damage that causes the plastic to become brittle.
