I would have to look at my DS to see, but I would think that it would be repairable. You may have to take the bottom hald of the case apart to get a good go at it though, that is a pain in the butt to get those shoulder buttons back the way they are supposed to be so they'll work right.

have dismantled the bottom case and it appears that the battery connection wires that stick out into the battery compartment are housed in a plastic black block the upper wires on mune have broken thru
