== =Nintendo DS Lite=

The Nintendo DS Lite (NDSL) was released on June 11th 2006. The NDSL is a dual-screen handheld game console that features the technology of touch-screen on the lower screen, something that no handheld games have created before (except for the original Nintendo DS). Nintendo introduced the DS Lite as a complement to the Nintendo Wii that came out recently. Its ultra-bright screens with rendered 3D graphics were much anticipated before its release which was on June 11th, 2006.

Console Design
The NDSL is a newer version of the Nintendo DS and is compact in size and lightweight as well. It features two ultra-bright screens, one on the top and one on the bottom. The top part includes two stereo speakers for enhanced gaming experience. There is also a built-in microphone port to play interactive games. The console comes in three different colors; polar white, coral pink and onyx.

Technologies

 * Touch-screen technology** allows players to interact with the console by using a stylus pen to touch the bottom screen during game play and chat. The bottom screen contains a tough film to prevent the screen from damaging. This technology allows players to play games without the original game controller, although that is also available for playing RPG games and such.


 * Nintendo WiFi Connection** allows players to connect wireless to play, and chat with other NDSLers around the world. Best of all, there is no extra fees for connecting and playing via WiFi.


 * Wireless Network** allows up to 16 people in the same room to connect to a local wireless network and play in the same game. The range for the wireless network to work must be 30 – 100 feet. Players can download play from other players if they don’t have the game. PictoChat also allows players within that range to chat in a chat room with each other and it is not monitored.
