Bon, mon niveau en anglais n´est pas super mais je vais essayer de vous pondre quelque chose de correct:
Nintendo DS handheld game console first in the United States on November 21, 2004, then in Japan on December 2, 2004 and later on March 11, 2005 in Europe. In the U.S., shipments of the DS reached 500,000 within the first week, and in Japan, the figures were even more impressive, reaching the same figure within four days of its launch. It has also proven to be the fastest-selling console in European history, having sold over 1 million units in six months (250,000 of those units in Great Britain alone).
The Nintendo DS features two back lit LCD screens, the bottom of which is touch sensitive, which can create a unique style of game play. It also features a built in microphone and the ability to connect up to 16 Nintendo DS systems together wirelessly. Included in the system´s firmware is a whiteboard-able local WAN instant messaging client without identity called PictoChat, and most editions of the system have bundled either the demonstration version of Metroid Prime Hunters or the commercial versions of Super Mario 64 DS, Mario Kart DS, or Nintendogs, with Mario Kart DS, Super Mario 64 DS, and Metroid Prime Hunters: First Hunt having local wireless play. The DS can also play software designed originally for the Game Boy Advance, though since the DS lacks the serial port from earlier systems in favor of the newer wireless connection, no legacy games can be played in a networked form nor can they be linked to the GameCube. Nintendo has, however, indicated that it will be able to link wirelessly to the forthcoming Wii though no details have been released.
At the Game Developers Conference, Nintendo announced that they would be launching an online service for the Nintendo DS called Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, allowing multiplayer gaming over the Internet. The online service is very different from that of its competitors´ because it is free to consumers who already have an Internet connection at home or know of a Wi-Fi hot spot. As of October 18, 2005, Nintendo has partnered up with Wayport to bring free Wi-Fi access to Nintendo DS owners. As of November 14 in America, November 25 in Great Britain and on December 28th in Dublin, the launch of their Nintendo DS Internet gaming service, over 6,000 McDonald´s restaurants nationwide will become free Wi-Fi hot-spots. Nintendo UK also announced plans for over 7500 British Wi-Fi hot spots, including McDonald´s restaurants, football stadiums, hotels, motorway service stations, railway stations, student unions, airports, and libraries. Currently, the only games that support the Nintendo Wi-Fi service are Mario Kart DS, Tony Hawk American Sk8land, Animal Crossing Wild World, Metroid Prime Hunters, Tetris DS, Lost Magic, and Bleach DS (Only available in Japan). Metroid Prime Hunters is the first Nintendo DS game to use VoIP (Voice Over IP) which allows for players to chat with one another before and after Wi-Fi matches.
More Wi-Fi games, such as Star Fox Command and Mario Vs Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis, are scheduled for Wi-Fi abilities.
Currently, the Nintendo DS has sold more than 16.73 million units worldwide. Although reports vary, in terms of units sold worldwide the Nintendo DS and its redesign the Nintendo DS lite are ahead of their main competitor, the Sony PSP, which has shipped more than 17 million units. It has sold over 4 million units in the U.S. alone, and another 6 million in Japan.
On January 26, 2006, Nintendo introduced a redesign for their handheld, named the Nintendo DS Lite. It was released in Japan on March 2, 2006, in Australia on June 1, 2006, in North America on June 11, 2006, and in Europe on June 23, 2006. Featuring brighter LCD screens (four adjustable levels of brightness), a sleeker and smaller case, improved buttons, thicker and longer stylus, and a slightly different layout (the power, start, and select buttons were moved and the microphone and power LEDs were moved to the center hinge). One disadvantage to the smaller size is that Game Boy Advance games stick out from the bottom slot by a few millimeters. The units were sold in Japan and via the Internet hours before stores opened. In Japan, stores had lines with more than 500 people waiting outside.
