| | '''Nintendo DS''' is a battle arena first seen in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. It is the [[Mario Kart DS]] equivalent to [[Mario Kart: Double Dash|Double Dash!!]]'s [[Nintendo GameCube (battle course)|Nintendo GameCube]]. Designed to look like the original [[Nintendo DS]] system, the arena is simply two connected platforms, with one, the "bottom screen" flat, and one, the "top screen" slanted. The "screens" are not known to change images. While [[Mario]] and his friends battled atop the course, the screens were decorated with a screenshot of ''Mario Kart DS's'' title screen. While not quite as curved as a real Nintendo DS, the arena is a very accurate representation, going so far as to include details such as the [[microphone]]. |

| '''Nintendo DS''' is one of the battle courses featured in ''[[Mario Kart DS]]''. The arena takes place on the first [[Nintendo DS]] model in outer space, in a similar manner to the [[Nintendo GameCube (battle course)|Nintendo GameCube]] stage from ''[[Mario Kart: Double Dash!!]]'', which takes place on its giant [[Nintendo GameCube|namesake system]] in the same setting. The Nintendo DS course has two connected platforms, which are the top and bottom screen of the large Nintendo DS. The system includes design consistencies such as the [[Nintendo DS#Microphone|microphone]] and speakers and a slanted top screen, though it is not as curved. The top screen displays the title screen of ''Mario Kart DS''. There are four [[Item Box]]es on the top screen, and six on the bottom screen, both creating a ring-like formation. The course has no obstacles aside from driving off of the stage. | |

|
| In Shine Runners, there are ten possible spawning locations for the [[Shine Sprite]]s, divided into two sets of five spawning locations for each screen of the large Nintendo DS. Their distribution layout is the same on both platforms of the course, with four spawning locations on each corner and one in the center.
| | The course is located in a starry region of [[Outer Space]]. While the arena does not appear to move around in space, it has no evident technology to keep it in a single place. It is likely that the same method used to suspend the [[Rainbow Road|Rainbow Roads]] and [[Nintendo GameCube (course)|Nintendo GameCube]] arena is the same used to suspend the Nintendo DS. |
|
| |
|
| There are two [[Mario Kart DS#Missions|missions]] that take place on Nintendo DS, the only battle course with said number of missions. In Mission 1-5, [[Toad]] must pass through 6 gates within 30 seconds. In Mission 7-6, [[Mario]] must pass through 8 gates within 11 seconds. All gates are arranged in a small circle, though not in order.
| | The [[Mario Kart DS#Mission Mode|missions]] 1-5 and 7-6 take place on this course. In both missions, there are gates the [[player]] is supposed to drive through. |

| ==Additional names==
| | When a player plays ''Mario Kart DS'' on a [[Nintendo DS Lite]], Mario's call on the title screen is different. The fact that the title screen is displayed on this course may be a sly reference to the easter egg. |

| ==Trivia== | |
| [[File:NDS Battle Stage MKDS demo.png|thumb|150px|The stage's appearance in the early kiosk demo.]]
| |
| *The stage has a few aesthetic differences in the [[List of Mario Kart DS pre-release and unused content#Courses|kiosk demo]] of ''Mario Kart DS''. Instead of outer space, the backdrop shows a green sky and pink clouds during sunset. Both of the arena DS's screens shows a different, preliminary image: the bottom screen shows a copy of the stage's backdrop, while the top screen shows the Nintendo DS logo.
