Sorry for another DS topic...
Just wondering about the insurance policies often offered with new gaming hardware by places like EB and Gamestop. I usually just ignore these policies as they seem like a way for the stores to pick up extra cash, but if I pick up the DS I am slightly interested in such a policy. Does anybody here who works at a gamestore know if a policy will be offered with the DS, how much it will cost, and what exactly it will cover? Most importantly, will I be able to return a DS simply because the touchscreen has become scratched??
Has anyone who has used these policies with a previous system had any sort of trouble getting a return from their investment??
Also I have read here that some people used these policies to switch their GBA SPs when new colors/editions were released. How do you go about doing something like this, do you just pretend your old system was defective? I am concerned about nintendo quietly fixing hardware problems in new releases, upgrading the battery, etc. and would love to have a way to effectively swap a launch model for a new one if possible. Thanks for any help.
