Great product, I highly recommend it if you need to get into a Nintendo product. My 2 year old stuck a Shrinky Dink in our Wii console, and it was going to cost me at least 75 bucks to send it in to be fixed. I had a small slotted and Phillips Head screw driver, but nothing to take out the Y-head that Nintendo uses. This one I got on Amazon.com was cheap, got to me quickly, and worked perfectly on the screws. I looked on YouTube for instructions for taking apart the Wii, and I had the whole thing apart and back together again in about 15 minutes.

Product is as advertised. It works perfectly, metal seems hard enough, and it is magnetic which is a big plus with the tiny screws. It was delivered on time. I am happy with the vendor and the product.

It's a little smaller than I thought, but it worked like a champ for taking apart my GBASP and DS lite.

What else can you say? It's a screwdriver.

As delivered, this Triwing is slightly too sharp to fit the MacBook Pro trackpad adjust screw. A minute of filing down this screwdriver's tip makes it fit perfectly in both the trackpad adjust screw and the 17 inch unibody batter hold down screws. Allowed adjustment of Unibody MacBook trackpad noise and removal of the 17 inch unibody battery.

First of all, there seems to be nothing I can do to prevent Amazon from classifying this tool as a game - just because its description has the word Nintendo.

Sorry, I'm with the people who say this tool is cheaply made. I shouldn't have ignored the minority of reviewers who said so.

I've had it happen with screwdrivers before, so I knew there was a danger the tip might shave itself away as I tried to use it. For that reason I was extra gentle, but after just a few seconds a chunk was gone from one of the three blades.

I'd like to say that maybe it would not have failed so quickly if the tip had fit the screw head better... I think maybe the blade might be too sharply pointed to fit all the way into the screw head... but I don't think that's any excuse since the item description specifically says "Nintendo products" and the screw in question is part of a Nintendo nunchuk.

No complaints at all. The screwdriver easily worked on our Wii and DS lites to remove the screws. It is well made and solid.

First, the shipping was quick and I received the screwdriver in a couple of days.

Like another reviewer, the first screw I tried to take out got stripped. From what I can tell, the tip is chipped and basically useless now.

When I tried to remove a screw from my DS Lite, the tip of the screwdriver striped. Not the screw, the SCREWDRIVER. Now I can't use it for anything at all.

My daughter was a little over zealous with the touch screen on her DS Lite and ended up damaging it. I purchased a new touch screen and screwdriver from a dealer in Korea via another site. To my surprise, the driver and screen arrived, but the triwing screwdriver's tip would not properly meet with the screw head on account of the angle of the tip's cut, rendering it absolutely worthless to open a DS Lite. This screwdriver arrived promptly, is of high quality and actually works. Now I do not have any excuse to try to open up the DS. We'll have to see now if the new screen will work.

That's exactly how many screws from an old game boy I was able to remove before this screwdriver lost its shape... one. I don't know of which metal is the screwdriver made, but it is too soft for a tool.
