Had a few people interested in seeing what the inside of the DS Lite non-functional display unit looked like so I disassembled it very carefully.

The motherboard inside is bare except for any components that are visible to the outside (headphone jack, cartridge slot, etc), shoulder buttons and button membranes. The "screen" is a solid piece of metal with a black sheet, there is some foam to pad it from the motherboard. The stylus and GBA slot cover cannot be removed, they appear to be attached with rubber cement or a similar adhesive. Removing the screws from the stylus slot does not release it.

Unsure what the scribbles inside are, possibly signatures written with a pencil, but can't be certain. Although this could theoretically become a working DS Lite I am not going to make it functional because like it being an oddity and am a purist when it comes to OEM consoles not being modded.

Just got this pink DS Lite display unit in the mail. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be much information regarding these and the most information I could find were two colors, silver and black, on Consolevariations and one eBay listing for a metallic pink one, but not this pink model.

I believe these units were displayed in stores to show off the DS Lite in stores, but these aren't the same units that would be playable on kiosks. Possibly could also be models sent to accessory manufacturers, but I really have no clue. It has the same dimensions and weight distribution as a normal DS Lite, but has no functioning parts. The stylus and GBA cover are both non-removable.

If anyone has any more information on these I'd love to know!
