What is the difference between the DS and DS Lite from a hardware and emulation perspective? I know that the Lite is smaller, lighter, etc., but is there any real difference internally? And if so, what would that mean for emulating them?

Differences that I know of:

* more levels of backlight for the LCDs
* ~~LCDs are also different? I don't have a DS Phat but I think they have the same characteristics (colors, lag) as the DS Lite screens~~
* edit: phat LCDs have less lag than lite, but the colors are definitely worse

* wifi device is slightly different, and is equipped with different RF/BB chips

Aside from that, we'd have to investigate, I guess.

Also, the DS looks ugly.

that was pointless to add, don't you think?
