Tip# 7 Nintendo handhelds should not be used as self defence weapons.

Tip# 8 Do not attempt any of the console surivial test as seen on various kinds of media.

Tip# 9 When buying a stylus for the DS make sure it has the Nintendo seal of approvel.

Tip# 10 Controllers should not be used in a tug-o-war contest

Tip # 11 Nin-Ten-Do is not a martial art and you should not put it down as an extra cirricular activity.

Tip #12 Never use any Nintendo system as a coster.

I hope this helped if you have any more questions plz PM me.

tip 11 - :( so i have to remove that? :wink:

1. Don't handle your disks with greasy fingers touching the data side

2. Don't eat KFC and then immediatly play the DS - wash your hands first!

3. Recharge unused handhelds such as SP, Micro, DS Fat or Lite when they sit for extended periods of time without being used - this keeps the battery from becoming depleted and losing it's ability to retain a full charge.

4. Don't remove plugs by pulling the wires - pull the connector - that's what it's for.

5. Resist the urge to throw handhelds against:
                   a) the wall                b) the floor                c) your friend

that's all i got right now.

2. Dont get mad and smash your N64 controller to pieces because you got knocked into the water in Mario Kart

3. Dont open the tray of any console when a disc or cartridge for that matter is running

4.  Dont purposely bend back the top screen of your ds or SP to see "how far it extends" or it may become loose or crack

5. AGAIN DONT EVER BUY ANYTHING MADCATZ

The best tip I have is don't get angry at your games and throw your stuff.  I threw my Ps2 controller on the floor last year and cracked it pretty bad.  The right part where r1 and r2 is was all messed up but I didn't care my parents where going to Best Buy the next day so I was lucky and they got me a new controller.

not true.... my original DS has pelican screen protectors on it and it doesnt have one scratchREVOLUTIONfreak

#12 make sure your pocket has no lent in it before you put handhelds in your pocket.

#13 Do not use picto chat to anger other drivers (ex: Drawing a extended middle finger or writting f**k you! and show it to drivers on the road.)You and your DS will live longer.

Get a carrying case for DS so it doesn't get scratches while your carrying it.

14: Don't play and drive :|.

15: Don't use the gamecube as a "purple lunch box"

16: Don't play a game if you have anger mangement problems

17: Don't push to hard on the DS screen with the stylus

18: Do not barry any game in the sand

19: Make sure you don't have any games or handhelds in your pocket before you wash them.

20: Don't swim and play

21: Don't drink and play

Okay. I've done this on all of my systems and games and they have worked flawlessly over the years. What you need is a mallet. You can probably purchase a big hammer at a Home Depot or Lowes for around 5 dollars. The bigger the better!

Next, depending on how big of a mallet you bought, stand at an adequate distance from your system/game. Lift the mallet as high as possible, then, as if you're playing Beaver Basher at one of those annoying arcades, smash whatever is under the mallet once it comes into contact with the ground. You're system/game will function perfectly no matter what from now on. :D

I hope you never actually did that.... there actually is such a thing as e-waste, it pollutes the air from destroyed/smashed electronics.

Tell that to the Amish. I see those people smashing electronics all the time...

Also, doing the said maneuver on a particular game called E.T. for the Atari 2600 avails stupendous results. :wink:

Ohhh... Did not know about that. Better delete that post. *DELETED!*
