Nintendo ON - Dark Imakuni - 12-08-2005
I found this on Channel 4 Teletext p375 a while ago and so I decided to share it with you:

Based on the few facts we so far have, undoubtably the most exciting prospect of the Next Generation is Nintendo embracing the concept of online gaming.
It is doing it first with the DS and it marks perhaps the most important turnaround ever at the company.
Japanese online games haven't evolved one iota since Phantasy Star Online - hopefully that's about to change.
Online gaming on the DS... I can't wait! I also hope it's free!

Heh, yes, it is being developed for the Nintendo DS as we speak, and will be around in Aumtumn/Winter for us to play Mario Kart DS and a few other titles at least online around the world, for free
Here is a trailer for the Nintendo DS Online System (That they're calling Nintendo DS Wi-Fi) that is currently being shown in America to promote the new system. Click Here.
Theres loads more being discussed about it, and you can find it in the Nintendo DS thread in the Handhelds forum, with Wi-Fi discussion around about this page!
Only other info i can give you is that 25 other 3rd party developers are supporting Nintendo DS Wi-Fi at least (Including SEGA - But no online game announced yet!), and first party online games will also include Animal Crossing DS which gets released at the beginning of 2006.
I didnt know anyone used Teletext anymore!

Yeah, get with the times!
Anyway, I'm SO waiting to finally play Mario Kart against someone who's not my brother or my dad, and to play Animal Crossing with three other humans in your town. This is gonna be amazing!

*Moved to Handhelds*
As soon as DS Wi-Fi comes out, i'm coming for you Faulkner
Nintendo ON - Faulkie - 13-08-2005
I'll kick your ass... you know what, I don't even know your last name!
Will you be able to play any existing multiplayer game in Wi-Fi or will they have to start making a Wi-Fi option into new games? I ask this for the sake of the bomberman championship.
Nintendo ON - mr_shoe_uk - 13-08-2005
I think it will only be with games that allow it, but they'll probably make a new Bomberman game.
I'm going to beat both of you!
Nintendo ON - Lee-yoshi - 13-08-2005
Hehe, hopefully they'll release some kind of addon so you can extend the use of DS Download play over the internet for some multiplayer bombing
And they call me yoshi, Lee-yoshi
The master of all games. Get ready to be PWN'd!
Nintendo ON - Faulkie - 13-08-2005
Meh, I never claimed I was good at games, I just like playing them.
Nintendo ON - Lee-yoshi - 13-08-2005
Then you wont mind the constant losing will you, loser
Haha! J/k (Unless you really are a... nvm!)
Nintendo ON - Faulkie - 13-08-2005
So what if I suck at bomberman?! I'm getting better - honest!
