Put it in a big bag of rice for a week. Someone's missus on Gaf accidentally put his 3DS (which was in sleep mode) through the washing machine. He put it in rice for 3 days and then turned it on. It worked but there was still liquid inside the screen. He then put it in for another couple of days and the screen was almost perfect, just a small part of the screen was a little bit off - about the size of a few mm square. The 3D even worked.
Nintendium still lives.
Edit: Putting it in rice for a few hours is nowhere near long enough. It needs to DAYS or as much as a week depending on how wet it got.
