no, the problem is that you need another ds near by, it is wireless all you need is another ds at max i think 40 ft away...somethin like that...its not all that great
Even the pic chat, where you write to people. Whats the point of that if you have to be that close. I guess no one has a ds, because no one ever in there.
nintendo are officially doing this online thing coming around towards the end of the year. although i heard some people have made thier ds go online already.
games that i heard will come online wil be
Mario kart
Animal crossing
Metroid
Pokemon diamond and pearl
