Is my DS gonna die?

CHOIS CHOIS CHOIS

Today during another 8 hour FF Tactics A2 Marathon, I've started to notice that whenever I used jobs that required long range attack selections, it started to lag, a lot. It's terrible when I use the summoner attacks or some of the Blue Mage stuff.

So any Ideas? I think it's just that I've had this DS since it came out and It's getting kinda old, either that or the graphics card equivalent is almost shoot.

Does it lag in any other games?

Don't know, I'll have to check.

The lagging is not the game's fault, as I have not had any troubles in my 140+ hours of playing the game. As Günter said, try other games to see if the problem persists.

It's dead, Jim.

Is it an oldschool DS? Mine does the same thing when it has to render a large movement/attack grid. My friend hasn't noticed it on her DS Lite.

That's very interesting. I was under the impression that the two systems had identical hardware. Maybe not? Maybe the firmware is different?

It happens to me occasionally with large attack grids too, on an approx. 1-year-old DS Lite. It's only really ever happened with my fusilier character, though.

Judging from the visual styles and details, it's no surprise that it's doing this. I noticed some lagging on moving characters and some other stuff that really should not of lagged.
