With its two screens, Nintendo DS instantly shows its innovative face. But capabilities like a touch-screen input, voice recognition and wireless communication set it apart from every other game device, and again demonstrate Nintendos passion for groundbreaking originality.
Game players need only use their imagination to see how the DS promises to transform the portable game industry by changing the way gamers relate to their games and each other. Two screens offer two perspectives on the action at once. The touch screen could make accessing items, moving characters or navigating menus as easy as a tap or drag on the screen. Voice recognition could let players simply tell the game what they want it to do. Chat software will let users transmit text messages, handwriting and even drawings to one another. And wireless functions could link players in the same room or across the country. The unique features of the Nintendo DS hold a wellspring of potential for the future. Game players will be wowed.
May be the only thing DS get's for Christmas this year with the exception of the few things I have bought him and stored away in the treasure closet.
