I was playing Final Fantasy III at the time, and it was on standby for 30-60 minutes, and now the top screen is white with red, blue and black lines fading in and out. Nothing seems to display up there. I turned it off thinking it might have been some sort of bug, but it didn't seem to work. Anyone else had this problem? Do I need to contact Nintendo?
Nobody? I tried another game, Shiren the Wanderer, but it did the same thing. I know it's pretty obvious I should call Nintendo's tech support but I want to make sure it's not something I can fix myself.
I've never heard of such a problem, and I'd be surprised if it is something you can fix. If you are still in warranty, Nintendo won't give you any trouble.

Call their customer support line anyway. They're usually quite reasonable - if not down-right nice - about fixing their products.
