gaming Was the DS Nintendo's most "ahead of it's time" system?

Looking at the current boom of touch screen smartphone games. I can't help but feel the DS was ahead of it's time, moreso than other Nintendo platforms. It was the first gaming device to get touch screen gaming right. It was one of the first systems with a built-in microphone, one of the first 3D capable handheld systems, one of the first gaming platforms to take advantage of the then new Wi-Fi internet format, and the DSi was the first to popularize the dual camera setup. Many of these things are now standard on every mobile device on the market. Plus, the DS paved the way for the casual gaming audience, introduced things like Brain Age wich are now a dime a dozen on iOS and Android. And made refinements to genres like puzzle games and strategy games thanks to it's touch screen interface. So what do you think?
