Minecraft: Nintendo DS Edition

Minecraft: Nintendo DS Edition (also known as Minecraft for DS or Minecraft DS Edition) is the first in the series of Minecraft's legacy console editions, as it was released in late 2010 for the DS Lite. However, an upgraded version was released in mid 2011 for the DSi and DSi XL/LL. Small portions of the game's code would also later be re-used for the New Nintendo 3DS Edition. Most versions of both sub-editions were ports of Minecraft: Java Edition, with minor changes to fit the DS and/or DSi.
