DS Lite help

OP is going to sleep and will return shortly.

Please do help while I am away.

Much obliged.

Is there a game cart in the cart slot?
If there is, remove the cart and see if it boots normally.
(Alternatively if there's dust and shit in the empty cart slot try cleaning it out)

Take the battery out and put it back in, cold reset it

>>278660

I'll post pictures of the GBA port, game slot and the game card it had on.

I'm going to assume the DS lite has battery left, and that you've tried booting it while plugged into the wall. There's the whole "drain the battery until it's empty and then recharge it to full" in case it's a power issue, but you have the green light so I don't think that's the case (wouldn't hurt to try since you can't do anything with it right now anyways). If it was an issue with the cable connecting the screens the bottom screen should still turn on...

tl;dr No frickin clue, haven't encountered something like this before.

SITREP:
It turns on, works all fine but when I press too hard on the touch screen it glitches.

Just checking back in here: if it powers on normally when plugged in, chances are there's issues with your actual battery, though I'm not sure what the deal with the touch screen is.

So while I'm still not 100% sure what's wrong with it, it's a hardware issue that likely includes that battery and possibly extends beyond it.

If nothing works, open it up and take a look. It almost sounds like there could be damage to the circuitry.

Well, nintendo DS goes through a "post check" through all the devices it has to check if nothing has been disconnected. In this state you'd need to open it up and clean the mainboard connections, and remember-don't open the upper screen case or remove the ribbon of it. it's a clusterfuck to put back in place.
