This kit is absolutely horrible. The screen protectors have scratches on them while new. The protector for the touch screen is good until you use it for about five minutes then air bubbles appear from nowhere. After that, it will get loose and curl up, making it always touching the screen more in one area so it won't respond to where you touch. The earphones and really short and sound horrible. Though the feature of rolling up like they do it a good idea, this entire kit is not worth buying. The car charger is the only thing that works, but there aren't that much uses for it unless you travel a lot.

The screen protector for the lower screen, which requires the use of a stylus, is too thick, comes with no instructions and leaves bubbles when placed on the screen, effectively ruining the picture. In addition, it is VERY difficult to remove and leaves little bits of adhesive in it's wake.

The DS is an entertainment system costing a couple hundred dollars and this screen protector is so sticky I had to be careful peeling it off in order to avoid severely damaging the screen itself. Luckily the DS itself is well-made and as near as we can tell thus far, no damage was done.

The final problem was with the headphones. The wires attaching the individual earphones together left about four inches where a person's head should go. They did not pull apart and if they were meant to be there was, again, no instruction.

If you want a starter kit like this, don't waste your money, buy Nintendo certified instead.

The screen protector just plain does not work. The touch screen does not work after putting over it. It also hardly stayed in place!! Don't waste your $$ !!!!

I don't recommend this Intec package for your Gameboy DS because it simply isn't worth it. It is a scant bundle and the products are very cheap. It is also a third party product and does not do the wonderful DS justice.

I suggest using your own headphones like some others have mentioned because they are cheap. The car adapter is also unneccesary. As for the screen protectors, this is essential. The screen is easily scratched, regardless of what others will try to say. However I would not buy these film covers, as they are delicate.

The point is your DS should be fine without these things, until better, hopefully Nintendo licenced, accessories come out.

I was just about to start using this kit on my DS but when I went to my aunt's (game freak) said not to use it because it can cause damage to my DS so the next day she took me to walmart and we looked at starter kits we finally found a offical nintendo licensed starter kit for $17.95 Wow offical I thougt and it comes with a case,game cases,nice headphones,Offical Nintendo screen protecters, and 3 offical Nintendo styluses 1red 1blue 1black hoped this help

I bought 2 ds bundle with spiderman game and hard case...spent big $$$$$......after trying to get the screen protecters on without air bubbles...and no warnings...the screens stopped responding after about a month......only good thing about the deal was the spiderman game and the case.....all other third party items where not acceptable....BE WARNED......Nintendo spokes person stated...if you try to remove screen saver and damage the screen.......you as the consumer will pay between $58.00 - $88.00 to have the screen replaced by them.....there should be a 0 star catagory.....

I got this with my DS as part of a package. I can tell you its the most useless piece of garbage. First off the headphones had 2 right ear pieces and the retractable cord is worthless and gets tangled up easily. The covers for the screens are junk too. The one that covers up the touchpad doesn't fit right and the other cover falls off and doesn't stick at all. As for the car charger I haven't used it yet, but I doubt it works all that well either. Intec makes the worst accessories. Don't even consider buying this or even if you get it with a package deal toss it out.

Do not, I repeat, do NOT get this. I recieved a Nintendo DS for Christmas and the 'protective screen cover RUINED the bottom screen! Gameplay is now blurred and there are bubbles on the screen. INTEC DOES NOT BELONG IN THE VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY! BOYCOTT INTEC!

I got this kit after I got my DS and it is horrible!First, let's start with the screen protectors. They wouldn't fit and when I took them off, they got my screens all slimy! The headphones however, are even worse. Only one earbud worked and when I was done using them , my sound wouldn't work for days. The only thing that worked was the charger,but that didn't make up for my DS damage.

This kit is awful. I bought it for the sole reason of the screen protectors, but I put the bottome one on and.. BOOM, air bubbles. I could barely SEE the screen. Because of the adhesive on the "protector" it was really hard to get off. I was afraid that it would damage my ds, but it didn't. SO DON'T waste money on this!

I have to admit the headphones are cool, and the car adapter would work, so if you really MUST buy this, dont even touch the screen protectors.
