+=============================
+Nintendo DS
+=============================
+
+This page contains all the information you need to get ScummVM up and running on a Nintendo DS.
+
+What you'll need
+===================
+
+- A homebrew-enabled Nintendo DSi or DSi XL. Note that the original DS and DS Lite are not currently supported. How to enable homebrew is outside the scope of this documentation.
+
+Installing ScummVM
+======================================
+
+Download the Nintendo DS package from the `ScummVM Downloads page <https://www.scummvm.org/downloads/>`_. Extract the archive and copy the extracted ``scummvm.nds`` file onto the SD card. The exact location is not important.
+
+Transferring game files
+========================
+
+Transfer game folders onto the SD card. The exact location is not important.
+
+See :doc:`../use_scummvm/game_files` for more information about game file requirements.
+
+Controls
+=============
+
+Controls can also be manually configured in the :doc:`Keymaps tab <../settings/keymaps>`. See the :doc:`../use_scummvm/keyboard_shortcuts` page for common keyboard shortcuts.
+
+Paths
+=======
+
+Saved games and the configuration file are found in the ScummVM installation directory.
+
+Settings
+==========
+
+For more information about Settings, see the Settings section of the documentation. Only platform-specific differences are listed here.
+
+Audio
+******
+
+Supported audio file formats:
+
+- MP3
+- Uncompressed audio
+
+.. tip::
+
+   Games run faster if audio files are uncompressed.
+
+
+Known issues
+==============
+
+- Games requiring a resolution of 512x512 or higher are not supported on the DS due to hardware limitations.
+- Some games are not playable due to the slow CPU speed and limited RAM on the DS. If there are any games that run really slowly, this is considered a hardware limitation, not a bug.
