The Nintendo DS is a handheld game system released by Nintendo in 2004. It features two 3-inch screens, one of which is touch sensitive; "DS" actually stands for Dual-Screen. The system also introduces many new features to the Nintendo handheld lineup such as stereo sound, and audio input (microphone). As with previous major Nintendo handhelds, the DS also provides backwards compatibility for Game Boy Advance games (though this does not support multiplayer). The DS is also the first Nintendo system to have a built-in wireless connection, allowing it to link up with other DS's without any wires or add-ons. This was also the first system Nintendo made to go online (Mario Kart DS being the first Nintendo-made online game), using the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. (more...)
