The console versions start with one member of your crew ending up on an island whereas in the DS version, you start in a crate.
The console versions are developed by The Sims Division whereas the DS version is developed by Full Fat.
The Sims 2: Castaway is a console/handheld only game. There is no PC expansion for Castaway although The Sims Castaway Stories is a standalone game and as stated above, it is unrelated to The Sims 2 although they do use the same game engine.
In Castaway Stories, Sims age and can have children, whereas in the console versions they stay adults forever.
In Castaway Stories, there is a limited variety of supplies, whereas the console version contains a larger variety of available supplies.
In Castaway Stories, there are jaguars, hyenas, and orangutans. In the console versions, only boars, apes, and even parrots are seen throughout the islands.
In the console version, unlike the other versions, no characters other than those created by the player appear in the island. This turns into a very lonely gameplay when the player only creates one Sim.
