Loose D-Pad

My D-Pad is loose and wobbles around. It's still functional, but I remember my friend's being perfectly sturdy. I'm not sure if it's a common thing or if it's a big enough issue for me to take it back and get a new one.

its supposed to be slightly wobbly, thats the way they designed it.

Mine has the same problem and also squeaks a lot, Street Fighter is killing it and my thumb, that D-Pad is just too small.

The 3DS I tried at target d pad was sturdy and didn't squeak (though when you pressed on it it made a slight clicking sound just like my DSi and DS lite.)

It's fine. Mine is the same way.

Mine is just like the phat DS. It's not lose like the Lite.
