Sorry, but the story of your DS made me chuckle a little. xD Who tosses a console into a fire?! And it's more shocking that it still works. It reminds me of the story of the Gameboy that was bombed, but somehow still manages to work today.

Np, the DS story is always fun to bring back, she was annoying me because I'd never let her use my DS since she's well known for breaking every single piece of technology that she touches,just to let you understand: she's currently 22, she probably got her first mobile when she was 15/16, as far as I know she changed more than 12 phones, they were all new Phones and she broke all of them :v ; going back to the DS story she tried to take away the DS from my hands and started Fighting with me ending up with the console in her hands. After someting like 5 minutes she was threatening me to do something for her in front of the fireplace while swinging the console in her hand unconcious of the prescence of the stylus. As you might have immagined the Stylus slipped out ending up right on the top of the burning wood and she was so shocked that she let go the whole thing. Luckily the console ended up on some ash that was far enough from the fire to not get melted, or at least everything excluding a 5mm long piece of plastic near the battery light on the flipping cylinder, so that the screen now sometimes is removed from it's place and is only atached from the left side of the console where there is the cable that makes the upper screen work. Saddly the stylus wasn't lucky enough and was melted...

Woah, that's some story... After hearing it, I would be a little uncertain to lend your sister any electronics for too long.. xD

Also, dang, does the screen kind of slip out now? I'm surprised it can still work like that..
