Editing Nintendo DS (section)

== Why It Makes Touching Good ==
# The system has two screens which are used simultaneously during gameplay, while it may sound awkward having to track two screens at once, it works very well as most games in the system take good advantage of it.
# The bottom screen is a touchscreen which offers the possibility of more interactivity in games.
# It is the first handheld that can consistently do full 3D games. While the [[Game Boy Advance]] could do 3D graphics, they’d cause some issues with the framerate, and they would be pretty rare to find.
# Over 2,000 games to choose from.
# Lots of good games from [[Nintendo]] were made, including:
#*''[[Super Mario 64|Super Mario 64 DS]]''
#* ''[[New Super Mario Bros.]]''
#* ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass]]''
#* ''[[Metroid Prime Hunters]]''
#* The fourth and fifth generation of the [[:Category:Pokémon Games|''Pokémon'' series]].
#* ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''

# It was the first handheld to introduce a Wi-Fi service, making it possible to play online.
# The first two models had backwards compatibility with [[Game Boy Advance]] games. Some DS games took advantage of the GBA port for bonus features, such as the first ''Pokémon Mystery Dungeon'' games.
# The DSi model had a front facing camera, and was able to connect to the DSi Shop and offered digital games. Most of these games can be transferred to the 3DS as of 2011, with the exception of Flipnote Studio, the Nintendo DSi Browser, and pre-installed games found on the DSi XL.
# A DS can connect wirelessly to another DS nearby to not only play games, but also temporarily download demos and videos.
# It has a small microphone used for some games and features.
#Tons of great third-party games were released, including;
#*''[[Sonic Rush]]''
#*''[[Sonic Rush Adventure]]''
#*The original ''Ace Attorney'' trilogy
#*''[[Naruto: Ninja Council 3]]''
#*''Naruto Shippuden: Ninja Council 4''
#*''[[Naruto Shippuden: Naruto vs Sasuke]]''

# Every model has an extremely good battery life compared to [[PlayStation Portable|its competitor]]. The Lite model has up to 19 hours of battery life.
# A major feature called Download Play allowed other DS users to do some multiplayer gaming with only one game card, provided that they were within range.
#Every Nintendo DSi XL came with several DSiWare for free, which are different depending on your region of residence. This includes all the ''Brain Age Express Games'' and ''Photo Clock'' in North America and Japan, ''Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training Arts Edition'' and ''6 in 1 Dictionary'' in Europe, and ''Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training Arts Edition'', ''Clubhouse Games Express: Card Classics'', and ''Photo Clock'' in Oceania.
# Like the [[Game Boy]], [[Game Boy Color]], and Game Boy Advance, physical DS games are region-free.
#The NDS contains PictoChat, which is like a local-wireless communication texting feature with drawing capabilities. It was big back in the day, and although everyone's moved on to cell phones, it's still beloved by nostalgic people.
