I can believe that you can link the units to play multiplayer, but online????????That means wireless internet connection. Won't that be expensive for a portable unit???

I dont see how its possible to do it since you would need many things. But it may be possible if you have a wirless broadband provider!

Wow this is.. a little sad. Are you aware of what xlink is? it is a program which uses a router cable to act like a system link cable. so you can use the internet to play others in lan type games. useful for halo as it has lan but not online. DS has wireless lan, so does it even have a place to connect a system link cable? and it cannot use internet.. because its not euipped to do so. PSP has wireless online, not ds. there would be little point in an xlink 'online ds lan' game. the games are not worth it to go through the trouble of configuring your wire router to work with a ds. this wont happen... its simply not worth it

The DS I belive is allready online but Nintendo has mad them so there not at the momment...if you look at the USA and AUS Nintendo DS mini sites you would see hints leaning towwords online now or in the future.

Also Nintendo have said this "with the right software you can use the DS on the interent"

The DS is fun...it will go online soon....but nintendo dosnt want to at this point in time...maybe the DS will go online when its out all around the world.

i think they need to come out with a cartridge that allows you to surf the internet using a wireless router or connection. That would be awesome to be able to surf on the ds. Hopefully it comes online soon. It sorta gets boring playing against with people that are close to my ds.

Surf the internet on the DS? That'd be cool. The screen would be extremely small though but hey at least it would be better than nothing I guess! I can't wait to see!

I doubt they'll let you surf the internet, but maybe do some stuff like online stats and whatnot. I don't know if it would have the speed & power for a MMO game, though. I have a DS, btw, and the wireless is awsome! smile.gif

wow, that sounds awsome! I've heard of plenty of peoples doing some research on the WiFi capabilities, but never heard of something this! I can't wait, but hopefully it's not very expensive. I wonder what massively kill Nintendo brand they'll make online?

Yea i have heard of that too. To my knowledge, I am almost certain that DS online is taking hand helds to the next level and u can play with your friend who lives pretty far away and i not 100% sure but i think u can have ur own e-mail on it too.

    Online Play on Ps2 has become an annoyance and im going to rant about it right here. I am pissed
    with the way PS2s approach with online play. They have no ranking system and also they have *BLEEP*
    laggy servers. I am pissed, they dont even have a bungie based server running or a clan match
    program so people can organize and make clan battles which is available for the Xbox play. Xbox
    might be jumping ahead of the next consoles "war" because of how great LIVE is and they have better

  9. Ds Online: Your Opinion
    (7)
    Well, I own a DS, and have owned it for almost two weeks now. I have to admit, Single player is
    excellent, but SUPER MARIO 64 DS does tend to get boring after 60 stars.. I honestly can't wait
    for 2 things on the DS: Animal Crossing DS DS ONLINE If these two things are disappointing, I'm
    returning my DS...and if that isn't possible...throwing it off a bridge... So far, there's
    good games...but not....WOW games...like Halo... I would REALLY want Nintendo to be able to rub
    their online capabilities in Sony's Face once PSP comes out. I honestly hope that....
