DS Misc > Is it possible: DS mother board into DS lite shell

#104190 - InF3Rnus - Wed Sep 27, 2006 12:32 am

Is it possible to put a DS motherboard into a DS lite shell. I'm really really really really jealous of my friends DS Lite, and my mom won't let me buy a DSL ( I got my DS as a B-DAY present). So I need to know is it possible?

size might be a problem...

button placement, fitting it in to a ds lite shell, microphone re-placement...

so i guess the answer is no

no won't fit. Power button wrong place, mic, start/select.

Sell chunky DS on eBay (some people still prefer them). Use money to buy DS lite.

Could you fit it? Maybe. Would it still work? Possibly. Would it look any good? Doubt it.

well if you can, buy glow sticks on ebay, then sell them for 50p each, its like 45-40p/c per glow stick profit, its an awesome way to make money, spend ?/$10 and get maybe ?/$100-200, do a deal 3 stick1 for ?1, find a good spot to sell them, and off you go (worked for me)
