   They are hard to come by here too. All the hardware stores I asked didn't have. What I did was get the Hex headed ones and placed it into the drill in place of the drill bit. I used a hand file and while the drill rotated the screw I smoothed out the Hex edges on the file. Then filed out the top of the head as much as I could to get it close to the Nintendo ones. It's an option to consider, if you like?

@Luigi, I'm considering going to the DIY shop to replace them all with similar ones, at least until I get the missing one.

@GoRetro74, there is no need to get hex headed ones.... I can get similar ones at the DIY shop

    That's great! Unfortunately for me it wasn't that simple to come by. When your options are limited like mine it's a pretty good alternative.  ;D
