Nintendo DS is a handheld gaming device made by Nintendo. It is noted for it's dual-screen design, with the bottom screen being touch-sensitive.

The touch-sensitive screen allows input with a stylus, so players can often write naturally or perform actions that reflect real-world actions. This has been put to good use in games that mimic cooking or hospital surgeons, drawing glyph to invoke spells, etc.

The games on Nintendo DS are not region locked. You can purchase games from other parts of the world and play them. In Japan, Nintendo has published many DS software that are not games, for example, dictionaries, language translators, and poetry collections. This kind of diversity has helped Nintendo DS to be popular outside of the traditional gamer demographics.
