Have you ever done any micro soldering before? Do you own a microscopic camera? If you answered no to either, I suggest you pay someone to install a modchip for you.

The HWFLY V4 and V5 have been discontinued. You can ask the seller for them; however, this may increase the cost. The old HWFLY is quite stable than the RP2040 from what I've heard. But sometimes, you might get one that is dead-on-arrival. So be extra cautious.

Yes, definitely. These are impossible to install, not without expertise of soldering skills and a microscopic camera for better clarity.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
