 Tri-wing doesn't work on DS lite system Jan 18, 2010
By S. Reid
"Red"
I bought this set specifically to take apart my DS lite system. It comes with a small tri-wing screwdriver that supposedly works on the interior screws of the DS. I spent two hours trying everything imaginable to get these mini screws out but the screwdriver did not fit. After that much frustration I took to other advice that I had read online about filing the tip a little in order to get a better fit. After another hour of trying that I STILL have not been able to open the system. I am so frustrated and have officially given up. The only reason I didn't rate it 1 star is because the standard Phillips head screwdriver did work for the exterior screws...but a lot of help that did me!

 DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT Mar 07, 2010
By Cheng Thao
"cthoj4082"
I recently bought this product for my xbox 360. But it doesn't work. I contracted the seller twice about getting a refund on the item, but I haven't gotten a reply back. I also left them a massage about changing the title of the product, but the sad thing about this is, they haven't done anything about it. As a buyer, this is a really DECEIVING way to get people buy this product which was titled, "GTMax 15 in 1 Precision Torx Tools Mini Screwdriver for Playstation PS3 Xbox 360 Nintendo DS Lite DSI Wii, Cell Phone, Iphone 3G 3GS, Ipod, Zune, Sadisk Sansa Fuze Clip, Sony Walkman MP3/MP4, Amazon Kindle e-Reader."
"This not only proves just how deceiving the title of the product is BUT it also clearly states that this seller has NO IDEA what they're talking about."
I found out the correct torx screw for my xbox 360 and the thing is, I didn't even buy it off of Amazon, because these people are idiots. So I bought it off of EBAY, which I was able to get the screw I need for $4 LESS.
So hopefully whoever looks at this product for the things that are listed on the title, DON'T BUY IT!!! Because it might just end up not working for YOU, too.
DON'T BUY THIS PRODUCT!!!
POWER TO THE BUYERS!!!!!

Massive fail. Rebranded junk, doesn't work on DSi, 3Gs, PS3, or Xbox 360. Mar 01, 2010
By Just Trying to Help

The title of this listing says it can be used for a lot of gaming systems.
Well. here is what I found shortly after getting it.
1) Triwing. Too big for DSi, and TOO SHORT. the tip could not make it all way down into the hole. FAIL.
After I realized this I tried it with some of my other gadgets:
2) PS3. PS3 (both regular and slim) has tamper resistant screws, this screwdriver set DOES NOT. FAIL.
3) Xbox 360. I guess they just threw this in there because it was a video game system, because it DID NOT WORK for my controller AND it didn't help get my xbox 360 apart at all! FAIL
4) i phone 3gs? a joke. the bit is WAAAAY too big. Did these guys even look at how itty bitty the screws are on an 3G/3Gs??? FAIL
Pros:
None. If it doesn't do what its supposed to do then its just a failure.
Cons:
Most of the bits are TOO SHORT! They don't fit all the way down into the hole, so they don't engage the screw.
Most of the bits are TOO FAT! they are too big to fit in the screw.
The handle is complete rubbish, with little plastic burrs that I wanted to shave down. I didn't expect the tools to be part of the fix-it project!
This is about as close to complete and total failure of a product as I can imagine. I am actually really angry because I was promised a tool kit that did a lot of things. You actually can't use the tool kit on any of the devices I actually tried to use them on.
WARNING: After looking around Amazon, I found that this kit is sold by other sellers with a RED HANDLE and it also has HORRIBLE REVIEWS. The company that "makes" this is just buying some junk and rebranding it as something new. Buyer beware!

not good for anything Jun 07, 2010
By Alyshia Heath
Doesn't fit DS lite or the GBA systems, this is junk in a flimsy package.
Not useful for Nintendo DS/ 3ds Apr 14, 2012
By levadt
Bought the product for working on a Nintendo DS, but found the tri-wing bit was not the right size - too large to work for those.
The handle worked well, but the steel the bits are made of is soft and almost all the bits are blunt on the tips. I was able to file the tri-wing into a point, enough to make it work for the project, but from working with the steel, i found its very soft and will is not likely going to hold up to very much normal use.
