Background
The Nintendo DS is a handheld game system from Nintendo, released in 2004. The successor to the Game Boy Advance, the console had many innovative features, most notably two screens, one being touch-sensitive allowing for new ways to play games. The console became a huge success, being known as one of the highest-selling platforms of all time and winning over Sony's PlayStation Portable console released the following year. An upgraded version known as the Nintendo DSi was released in 2008, adding internet support and a camera. Nintendo followed the DS up with the Nintendo 3DS in 2011, adding higher-quality graphics, more advanced control and a glasses-free 3D display. In turn, Nintendo also released the New Nintendo 3DS in 2014, an upgraded version of the 3DS with better processing power and built-in NFC support.
