I had my DS lite for 9 months, yet only two games.MPH and New Mario bros. My touch screen was working just fine and sorta still is..............."sorta."

  See, my problem is that the extreme sides of the touch screen are not working properly. For example, when you turn on your DS, the Ds symbol on the bottom-middle of the screen does not work right when I tap on it with my stylus. I took off the screen protector and plan on cleaning the screen with cloth.

Should I call or email nintendo customer service, or is it not a big deal?!

When you wiped off the screen with a damp cloth, some water got behind the touch screen, same thing happened to me.  Just wait for it to evaporate, lol.

It's highly likely that that's the reason his touch screen isn't working.

I agree, but I'd say let it dry out for a wee,  don't use it if its water or anything qet inside the touchscreen, you could cause more damage

it's not a big deal and you can ask game faqs and you will get assistance there.
