Later versions of the SDK OS library also have [[OSGetConsoleType]] strings mentioning a "NDEV 3.0" and "NDEV 3.1", possibly for [[Bollywood]] or Wii U bringup (early Wii U IOS stuff references it being tested on an NDEV). These were probably not released to third-party developers.

+
* NDEV-CPU(2)-X(4) - This board is equivalent to a Wii's main PCB, holding the [[Broadway]] and [[Hollywood]] chips as well as other standard I/O and functionality such as GDDR3/NAND/Memory Card ports/SD card slot.
[[File:NDEV-Box-Exterior.jpg|thumb|left|The exterior of the NDEV's box.]]
+
* NDEV-IO-X(1) - This board is used for the NDEV's ODEM (optical disc emulation) functionality.

+
* NDEV power supply board - This board supplies power to the rest of the system from the internal power supply.
[[File:NDEV GORE 1.jpg|thumb|left|NDEV in poor condition]]
+
* NDEV internal power supply - Equivalent to a Wii's external power supply, but present within the unit at the bottom of the box.
[[File:PROTONX NDEV INBOX FRONTONSIDE.jpg|thumb|left|Near mint condition NDEV (Image source: ProtonX)]]
+
* NDEV-LED-X(1) - Handles the NDEV's exclusive front panel LED display and buttons.
[[File:NDEV MINT SIDEOFBOX.jpg|thumb|left|Another near mint condition NDEV, this time on the side of the box.]]
+
* NDEV-SI-X(2) - Holds the GameCube Controller ([[SI]]) ports.
