How to Communicate Wirelessly with Another Nintendo DS

The new Nintendo DS systems let you communicate wirelessly with other Nintendo DS systems. Just follow these steps and you can start gaming.

Things You'll Need

• Nintendo DS

Instructions

1. Pick a wireless compatible game to play. Nintendo DS offers two types of wireless compatible games: Wireless DS Multi-Card Play and Wireless DS Single-Card Download Play.

2. Click the "Wireless Communication" icon.

3. If you choose the Wireless DS Multi-Card Play option, you will need one game card for each DS system in use. A number will appear under the wireless icon to indicate how many players can participate.

4. Turn off all DS systems before inserting the game card. Insert the game cards into each system, and then turn on the systems to begin playing.

5. If you choose the Wireless DS Single-Card Download Play option, you will need one game card for the host system. This allows all the other systems to download game information from the host.

6. Turn off each DS system before inserting the DS card into the host system. After inserting the card, turn on the systems.

7. The host system should start the game. Using the stylus, touch the game title to begin play.

8. All other systems should touch the "DS Download Play" panel on the DS menu screen with their respective stylus. Then you should choose the game title you wish to download and touch "YES" to confirm the game information has downloaded.

Tips & Warnings

• Signal strength should be at two or more bars for best results.

• The maximum distance between participating DS systems should be 65 feet or less.

• Any obstructions between DS systems or interference from other devices may interrupt play.
