The Nintendo DS (??????DS?, sometimes abbreviated to DS or NDS) is a dual-screen handheld game console developed and manufactured by Nintendo. It was released in 2004 in Canada, the United States, and Japan. The console features a clamshell design, similar to the Game Boy Advance SP, with two LCD screens inside—with the bottom one being a touchscreen. The Nintendo DS also features a built-in microphone and supports wireless IEEE 802.11 ( Wi-Fi) standards, [5] allowing players to interact with each other within short range (10–30&_160;m, depending on conditions) or online with the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service, which launched later in the console's lifespan. This was the first Nintendo console to be released in North America before Japan. The system's code name was Nitro,[6] and this can be seen in the model number that appear on the unit (NTR-001).[7] The console's name officially refers to "Developers' System", in reference to developers of new game designs the system was meant to inspire, and "Dual Screen", the system's most obvious and distinct feature.[8] On March 2, 2006, Nintendo released the Nintendo DS Lite, a redesign of the Nintendo DS, in Japan. It was later released in North America, Europe, and Australia in June 2006. The DS Lite is a slimmer and lighter version of the Nintendo DS and has brighter screens. Nintendo of America refers to the older model as the "original style" Nintendo DS.[7] It is often affectionately referred to by fans as the "DS Phat."[9] On October 2, 2008, Nintendo announced the Nintendo DSi, another redesign of the Nintendo DS, at the Nintendo Fall Media Summit.[10] It was released in Japan on November 1, 2008. It was later released in North America, Europe and Australia in April 2009. The DSi's codename has been changed to "TWL" due to it being a substantial hardware upgrade including a faster CPU and more RAM, and requiring new development kits. Satoru Iwata recently announced in an interview with Japanese newspaper, Asahi Shimbun that the next Nintendo DS iteration will have a high resolution display and motion sensors, defeating rumours that Nintendo were developing a brand new system that succeeded the Nintendo DS. It's also possible, however, that this is the Nintendo handheld console that nVidia were making graphics chips for, as a few nVidia employees had said they were contracted by Nintendo to develop new graphics processors for an undisclosed Nintendo handheld. [11] On November 13, 2003, Nintendo announced that it would be creating a new console for release in 2004.[12] Nintendo stated that it would not be the successor to either the Nintendo GameCube or the Game Boy Advance,[12] but rather it would be considered a "third pillar" alongside the other two consoles.[13] On January 20, 2004, the console was announced under the codename "Nintendo DS"[14] (Which stands for Developer's System.). Nintendo released a few details at that time, only saying that the console would have two separate 3-inch TFT LCD display panels, separate processors, and up to 1 gigabit of semiconductor memory.[14][15] Nintendo president Satoru Iwata said, "We have developed Nintendo DS based upon a completely different concept from existing game devices in order to provide players with a unique entertainment experience for the 21st century."[14] In March, the codename was changed to "Nitro" and a document containing most of the console's technical specifications was leaked.[16] In May, the codename was changed back to "Nintendo DS" and the console was shown in prototype form at E3. All of the features of the console were released by Nintendo at E3.[17] On July 28, 2004, Nintendo revealed a new design, one that was described as "sleeker and more elegant" than the one shown at E3. Also, the codename "Nintendo DS" became the official name of the console that day.[18]
