The Nintendo DS (which is short for Dual Screen, although Nintendo has also promotionally said it to be short for Developer's System, due to the ease of development for the handheld), is an innovative dual-screen portable video game console developed and manufactured by Nintendo.
Both launches proved to be successful, but it is interesting to note that Nintendo chose to release the DS in North America prior to Japan, a first for a hardware launch from the Kyoto-based company.
DS Games utilize a proprietary solid state flash card format resembling those used in other portable electronic devices such as digital cameras; this semiconductor technology is said to be far cheaper than conventional cartridges and is currently capable of supporting cards of up to 1 gibibit (128 MiB).

Nintendo 64 or simply N64 is a video game console from Nintendo released on June 23, 1996 in Japan and September 29, 1996 in North America.
While not being home to as many highly rated games as Nintendo's prior console (the Super Famicom (in Japan) and SNES (in North America and Europe)), and lacking the essential third party support (which would eventually be its downfall), it still has seen some particularly notable games.
As a result many game developers which had traditionally supported Nintendo game consoles were now developing games for the competition because of the higher profit margins found on CD based platforms.

 Rotten Tomatoes Forums - Nintendo DS launch titles officially revealed
It's not as precise as the Nintendo 64 game with its analog control, which is why it was mentioned during the presentation that there's a new touch screen control option in the game where the screen becomes an analog stick.
But Nintendo representatives stated that this control mechanism's better when used with a special stylus-thumb strap device that may be made available when the system ships at the end of this year.
Graphically the game seems much more colorful, sharper and lively than the Nintendo 64 game, though the images have a sort of "shimmy" to them that might be due to the lack of texture filtering of the Nintendo DS.
