Seperate the top screen and bottom screen into two In my case, I replaced the bottom touch screen digitizer with a new one and also ended up replacing the housing with a white one. This is a great opportunity to clean the device and components or replace the housing. The process is pretty involved and you end up taking apart the entire DSi XL/LL. This is another piece of the guide that has already been well documented out by iFixit. Leave a comment and I can try to help if needed. Now the DSi XL should reboot and start up in Twilight Menu++, please note that the steps above are under the assumption that you have your SD card setup similar to mine, if that’s not the case you might need to try something else.
Set Unlaunch to boot Twilight Menu++ by default: Once you’ve followed the steps to boot into Twilight Menu++, you should be able to launch the “Unlaunch” app, this will bring you to a point where the menu is displayed on the top screen, but since we don’t have a top screen we will have to just press the buttons as follows to navigate:

As the guide in the link mentions, if you’re using the latest version of Twilight Menu, more than likely the latest version of nds-bootstrap is included, but if it isn’t you can download the files here: NDS-bootstrap releases. Some games like Pokemon Soul Silver for example does not work so well because you need to constantly swap screens every time a new screen loads). Something to note here is that earlier this year there was a new release of nds-bootstrap that added the ability to swap screens from top to bottom, so if you are running a Gameboy Macro you should now also have the ability to play DS games along with your GBA games(DS games that don’t require a lot of use of the bottom screen work well. This is what I used: DSi Guide and Unlaunch setup guide. I won’t go in depth into how to install this since there are a million guides to do so out there. There are multiple ways to go about getting this installed, for this guide I am doing the install through the SD card. Unlaunch will automatically boot the system into Twilight Menu++ whenever you power on your DSi XL/LL. The reason why we want to install Twilight Menu++ is because the DSi XL/LL does not natively run GBA games and so we need to do some software modifications in order for the DSi to emulate GBA and DS games. Please note that you need to have completed the camera tutorial before attempting to go through this setup along with updating your DSi XL to the latest version. Please read through the entire guide before attempting this mod, it’s fairly involved and takes some tech know-how to accomplish.įirst thing before we start taking apart the DSi XL/LL is we need to do some software modding. As always, I’m not responsible if you brick your device or injure yourself in anyway, this was done as a hobby to potentially help anyone who might be looking for information.
You might notice that there are different DSi XLs in the pictures, I did this over several weeks and modified different ones until I was happy with the way it turned out.
So here’s my attempt a very concise and quick guide on making one yourself. There is an abundant amount of information about modifying the older Nintendo DS Lite and DS phat but no centralized place for making the modification on the Nintendo DSi XL/LL. The reason for writing this guide is because I’ve actually not seen too many guides on doing this. Recently I was feeling a bit nostalgic and decided to try my hand at taking a cheap Nintendo DSi XL that I bought from eBay and modifying it to become what some would call a Gameboy Macro XLi. I thorough enjoy getting electronic devices to do things beyond what they were meant for.
