Mindtendo Two-Screen/Mindtendo Two-Screen D/Mintendo 3D Two-Screen

Background: With the Game Man Advance slowly starting to fade away,Mindtendowanted to create a new portable console tocontinueits success of portable consoles including the Game & See and Game Man and its upgrades. In 2004, Mindtendo created a new console to compete with Soapy's brand new PBP, which was released in 2005, and the Two-Screen included features such as two screens and a "touch-screen" feature with a pen (even though the concept actually dates back to 1997, when LionElectronics' Game.net was released). The Two-Screen has gone on to become a wildly successful console, outselling the PBP. In late 2008/early 2009, an upgraded version called theMindtendo Two-ScreenDwas introduced. In March 2011, the Mindtendo 3D Two-Screen was introduced.
