It is funny how that statement contradicts itself: QUOTE You need to buy a crystal casing and not just any crystal casing. You need to buy a full face crystal casing. None of those china brand please. Recommended casing would be Blackhorn Polycarbonate Case Blackhorns is a China brand. Anyway, just take a look at the case yourself before purchasing, I am sure you can pretty much tell the quality. I used to use Blackhorns' case, and the quality is clearly better than the other cases that the seller showed me. There're good and bad china brand, you just gotta take a good look at them.

I would just ignore the Crystal cases. I dont like how if sand or minute dust particles get in. It may scratch ur ds.

And happened on me, and I always thought it is just me cause no one else had complained. I don't trust these cases anymore after my NDSL got a few small crack holes because some dust particles happen to slip between the case and ds surface. The tight hold also left some marks on my DS, now I am using BestSkinsEver instead, and my DS is as good as new.

Capdase's soft jackets is the way to go. Guaranteed safe for consumption, no kidney problem.

I had it for skinning then added the crystal case. The skinning protects from the scrathes while the crystal case protects from drops and stuff.

But some light scratches are almost unavoidable, hence skinning is good! I skinned both my PSP and DS, never used crystal case anymore, never dropped them either.

If your that careful, then i suppose you can skip the crystal cases. But friends take my phone to play alot. They might be the one not being careful. So yeah. Double protection.
