Summary

If your system won’t switch off, follow the advice below

Diagnosing the issue

The Power Button on the Nintendo DS systems has been designed to be difficult to push, so that you don’t accidentally switch your system off while you’re playing. Make sure you’re pressing the button with enough force.

Still have an issue?

If your Nintendo DS carries on having problems, it will need to be inspected.

You can book your Nintendo DS in for inspection by the Nintendo Customer Support Team.
