my right shoulder button doesn't work anymore, and it's getting hard to play Mario Kart online since I can't drift anymore and in Metroid, the Imperialist is usless to me since I can't scope. Has anybody else had this problem and is there a solution that doesn't require me to take it to a store or buy a new DS?

To zoom in with the Imperialst, double-tap the Imperialist icon on the bottom screen.

Its a design flaw, on my original DS the L button stopped working but I've noticed if you dig under the button and pull up you can easily take it out of alignment. Thats what probably happened to yours

Yeah, call Nintendo, they'll fix it for you. :) They might even send you a DS Lite, and from my experience, the DS Lite has more firm R and L buttons.
