During 3 days I've been gathering information about all the different modchips for nintendo switch in the market. I own a nintendo switch lite which i am willing to modchip. I've seen that there are various alternatives such as instinct nx (v6,v6s) and hwfly Picofly RP2040.

1. instinct nx v6 was made by the original hwfly group but its first batch with black PCB has some QC issues and also causes chipcrash and needs a reset when boot0/boot1 is updated on OFW updates. Software-wise is fully compatible with hwfly-nx firmware.

2. hwfly Picofly RP2040 uses its own firmware (open source) but may have issues with hynix/toshiba emmcs.

I would like to know how accurate the information i gathered is and what are your recommendations for long term use also if i have missed any pros or cons let me know.

    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
