So I'm playing Worms: Open Warfare 2 online, and suddenly, some shades on the top screen of my DS turn green. And it does that for every game I put in. I think it has to do with putting in a game that had a miniscule amount of chocolate in the ridges of a DS cartridge. Have any of you heard of this before?

Cuz, I really didn't think it would affect it if I played that same game with chocolate on it before. I didn't happen immediately, btw.

Darnit, if only Nintendo had thought to use chocolate in the DS stress tests this situation could have been averted entirely. :(

Sadly I think we are more interested in how you got chocolate on your DS cart then on your actual problem. Sorry to sound harsh.. But how the heck did you do that?

Um, maybe it's cuz I like eating chocolate whilst playing my DS. Duh... But seriously, that's a long story that doesn't need to be shortened. (it was chocolate from a Ding Dong, btw) I think I solved my problem anyway. All I need to do is keep the screens' angle at 180º.

If I do call Ninty, I wont say it was chocolate. That might void the warranty.

Okay, I'll explain what happened, in full detail. On a trip to Chicago (a 3-hour trip from where I live) I brought my DS and some Ding Dongs for the trip. Now, I don't have any game cases or anything because I'm cheap. So I just threw them in my bag along with the Ding Dongs. Now, the Ding Dongs somehow got smashed, excreting the chocolate crumbs all inside my bag. Some of these crumbs got squeezed into the ridges of my Mario Kart cartridge. I thought "Meh, no big deal", and played it anyway. Worked perfectly. And it continued to work perfectly. Now, five months later, I put that same MKDS cartridge (still with the chocolate) in to check my FC. After that, I play Worms online, and I get the GSoD. Happy?

I swear that Eating & Gaming is a skill that requires training and dedication, just like drinking & driving. The only reason that doesn't work with D&D is because you always forget what you were doing. :P

This one time, pretty recently, I lit gasoline on the inside of my car. It burned stuff. Anyone out there heard of anything like this?

...you're crazy.

If there were any exceptions for the "no trolling" policy, these should be one of them... Chocolate, for crying out loud...

Wow, just wow. How you treat your games is horrible. I'm surprised they still worked as you just chucked them into your bag without cases...
