The original model of the Nintendo DS.
The Nintendo DS is a dual-screened handheld gaming device created by Nintendo. It features two screens, one of them is touch-sensitive. "DS" stands for Double-Screen (or Dual-Screen in North America). The system also uses many new features, such as stereo sound, and microphone. The DS also provides backwards compatibility for Game Boy Advance games in the double slot (or the dual slot in North America). It has been remade 3 times as the DS Lite, DSi, and the DSi XL. Two games in The Legendary Starfy series were released for the Nintendo DS.
The successor to the Nintendo DS family is the Nintendo 3DS family. All consoles in this series play most Nintendo DS games.
In the Densetsu no Starfy R manga, Starfy and Starly own a system like a Nintendo DS called the FS (pronounced 'Fii S'). In the events of chapter seven — Pufftop Kingdom, Game King Playoff, Starfy was playing on the FS in Pufftop and seemed happy to accomplish something until Starly called his name and told him how to play on the "Tenkaido Fii" with both the remote and the Nunchuk.
Starfy broke the FS in half and made what he calls the "Nunchuk Type FS" (Japanese: ヌンチャク型FS), although later Starfy used the FS in its complete form again. Starfy and Starly tried to fight over who had the best console, until Moe convinced them that both the FS and Fii are good, only to say that he thinks the Fimicom is the best console.
