Homebrew 2DS screen pinout

i wanted to look into making some capture device for my 2DS, even if its something like a VGA out. I'm wondering what the best method to find testpoints would be, and where to go from there. Not spending $200+ on a capture card

Why not use NTR? not an option?

The pins should be the same if not similar

NTR streaming is only for the N3DS.

So it is, my bad his siggy says he has a N3DS though, wonder why it has to be the 2ds.

I've used it, but I'm aiming to get a consistant 60FPS without lag, so I could also use it for normal play.
Also most comfortable with screwing up my 2DS if I were to break one lol.

As for the 2DS pinout being similar to the 3DS one, I've thought that could be the case, however I'm also wondering if there is a safe way to short test points to test what is what

A multimeter is the best and easiest way to test if two points are connected or not

I was more so wondering if I could display and image on the screen, basically showing colors based on bits, so if I short out a pin thats related to the screen, it should turn the respective square black
