if pic won't work:
Go here and scroll down.
There you will see the USB adapter for those who haven't a combatible wireless router etc.
It looks neat.
I would post more infos but the website is chinese(?) and balbefish craps up a lot.
Any thoughts?

I have one of those. Doesn't work very well. Lots of disconnects when playing Super Mario 64 DS and Ridge Racer DS online. Anyone else have this problem?

It's Japanese. Any time you see curvy characters like
の は を
then those are hiragana, a syllabary used mostly for writing the case-endings on Japanese words.

And any time you see
ニンテンドー
that's Ni n te n do : in katakana, a syllabary used to spell foreign words and (when written above kanji) to indicate pronunciation.


Everything above the pic just explains the features of Nintendo DS and recommends leaving a cart in both slots to prevent dust from gumming up the works. Below the pic is in essence "Not compatible with serial port peripherals such as GBA, GBC, GameCube link cables".

I'm still not sure what "You speak Satoru IWATA concerning this enormous ones" means, especially in light of this.

Wait wait wait... Is that a photoshop image or something real? I was under the impression that these didn't exist, and would probably never exist. And to [Firefly]... remember April 11th? Well I was all excited for that day and it turned out to be a hoax. I hope against hope that this thing is indeed real, because it means that WiFi is that much closer.

That isn't real.

This is also very old, that picture surfaced a bit after E3 2004.

Besides the fact that it looks like a DS turned sideways... :/

well,I thought that it IS real.
It looks damn good if it is indeed photoshoped(The little sign on the rightside of that thing looks just too real).
and why shouldn't Nintendo choose the DS design for this adapter?

anyways.....if it's fake:sorry for that ;(

DAMNIT! Windows crashed when I was writing my post! It was good!!!

Well, it basically said that it was totally fake. Look at you DS and compare. (L and R buttons, arm neck, etc.).

'Luck in finding more culprates!
