Since childhood, we"ve been told "please do not touch" - don"t touch that lamp, stop touching your food and don"t touch anything in this store. Nintendo DS changes those rules. The "Touching is good" multimedia campaign creatively touts the unique features of the dual-screened Nintendo DS, which include a touch screen, a built-in chat function, wireless communication and voice recognition.
