−The '''NDEV''' ('''RVL-001''') is a fully-fledged development kit for the [[Wii]]. It does not have a disc drive or internal hard drive, so all software is read from NAND or the host system. The NDEV cannot boot without an attached host system, and can only launch disc titles if they are given to the NDEV through an optical disc emulator on the host system. The NDEV thus, uses a special system menu that is designed for purposes of debugging and development.

Compared to regular hardware, the NDEV features all the ports found on a retail system. The NDEV has a mains power switch, and an actual power switch both located on the front of the unit. All GameCube controller ports, SD reader, and GameCube memory card ports have been moved up to the front of the unit. There is also a dipswitch located on the front. On the back of the NDEV, there are two USB Type A ports as found on a retail systems, however, there is also three USB Type B ports not seen on retail systems. One of these is labeled as a debug port, used for collecting the debug output of games running. One is labeled as COM, used to send commands to the unit. Finally, one is labeled DI. There is also one serial (DB9) 115200-baud port.
