About the Nintendo DS
The original Nintendo DS (NTR-001), often called the “DS Phat”, launched in North America in November 2004. It has a Game Boy Advance cartridge slot on the bottom. Check both screens and the hinge.
What affects the price
- Screen condition: scratches, dead pixels and dark lines.
- Battery compartment corrosion (AA models) or battery life (rechargeable models).
- Hinges on clamshell models, and the charger included.
- Aftermarket screens and shells change the value, so modded units are left out of this guide.
