Can someone please confirm if this component is missing on my Core SX? i have spent the last couple of hours fault finding the install as i keep getting the pink light highlighting a communication problem with the NAND board - Im sure my joints are good so checked over the NAND board and can see this part is missing. Looking at an unboxing video it shows this present and they seem to have the same board number MV1-6 so makes me think it should be there.

Cheers

Just checked my SX Core and it's also missing.
On the new versions they removed that chip, so its normal that it's not there.

that part is a usb3.0 chip that was present in preproduction beta units that were sent to beta testers, new versions of the core don't have that component as it is not needed.

You clearly forgot to plug the nand chip to the connector on the modchip seen on the first picture. The nand chip needs to be plugged to that connector, where you also connect the micro usb port.

Holy shit! Something so simple - Thought that sx core replaced the nand. Cheers all for the help.

    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
