The DS was a game console that Rani Chandra owned in 2009. Rani was not a big gamer and used the console for "casual games". Amongst the games that she owned were a "cute cooking simulator", an "very unrealistic law simulator", and a game about looking after pets. (PROSE: The Last Sontaran)
Behind the scenes
While not named in full in PROSE: The Last Sontaran, the Nintendo DS was a handheld, cartridge-based game system released by Nintendo in 2004, with different models continuing to be made more than a decade later.
Rani's games are references to actual Nintendo DS games, all released prior to 2008:
- The "cute cooking simulator" is likely referencing Cooking Mama, a cookery simulation-styled minigame compilation developed by Cooking Mama Limited.
- The "unrealistic law simulator" is a reference to Ace Attorney, a series of legal thriller visual novel games, developed by Capcom.
- The game about looking after pets is likely Nintendogs a real-time pet simulation game developed by Nintendo.
The video game's Top Trumps: Doctor Who and Evacuation Earth were released for the Nintendo DS.
