Post by NESfan » Tue Nov 07, 2017 5:20 pm

Is there an alternative out there that is easy to purchase without having to break down a system yourself?

Aliexpress or alibaba and Ebay are good places to look.

Ah, your OP wasn't clear enough. The DS Lite buttons are the only buttons that will work for the mintypi... unless you modify the 3d printed parts yourself.

OK, cool. Just out of curiosity, are these DS lite buttons harvested from actual DS lites or 3P or 3D printed ones.

Wermy sells after market ones that are not harvested out of DSLs or you can buy OEM DSL buttons on eBay or Ali Express.

No, they're traditional plastic buttons.
