Nintendo's DSi gets cracked wide open

by Darren Murph, posted Nov 10th 2008 at 7:53AM

It's only fair, really. We've seen both the DS and the DS Lite exposed under the camera, and now it's time for the DSi to suffer the same humiliation. As expected, things are pretty packed on the motherboard, and there's oodles of green underneath the white lettering. For more images of the DSi's internals (and rainbows, and maybe a few unicorns), give the read link a click.

Quite. This isn't the sort of "cracked" that'll really get my attention.

I thought Nintendo made their systems with love and magic, not motherboards :(

Why, Reggie!?

To eGGnext:

What's funny is that there really is such thing as a daughterboard. And you thought you were just making a joke.

Btw, no mention of the faster CPU Engadget?

I am disappointed in engadget. I submitted a site with a full tear down of the DSi the day after it launched in japan, and it had a lot more pics than this site, they were higher quality too.
