Earlier this week Nintendo of America released an official statement on a known issue of the Nintendo DS Lite, where a small number of consoles have had small, purely cosmetic cracks developing on the hinge of the console. According to Nintendo the problem is only effecting 0.02 percent of US users.
Today, Nintendo Australia said any Australians also affected by the cracks can get a replacement console under warranty. It is unlikely however that many (if any) Australians are affected, as the shipment to the United States contained a different batch of Nintendo DS Lite consoles.
