Frequently asked questions about Nintendo DS consoles

Why does Nintendo DS have two screens?

Games can divide information between them. One might show the action, while the other displays a map, menu or touch puzzle.

Can Nintendo DS play 3DS games?

No. Nintendo 3DS games were made for a later handheld generation and do not work on a regular Nintendo DS, DS Lite or DSi.

Does DS Lite support Game Boy games?

DS Lite can play Game Boy Advance games in single-player form. Original Game Boy and Game Boy Color cartridges are not supported.
