Do the tools mentioned work for ALL of the Nintendo DS consoles?

I have a few broken Nintendo DS consoles of various models (DS, DSi, 3DS, 3DS XL). Will the tools mentioned work for all of them?

The tools mentioned in iFixit's tool list should work with the Nintendo DS console you are looking to repair. However, not all of them use the same size of screwdriver, or the same bit. At the very least for all of them, you will need a Spudger, Tweezers, and an Opening Tool. As for the driver bits, I can whole heartedly endorse the Manta Driver Kit as it should have all the bits you will need for repairing any Nintendo DS consoles.
