Default Nintendo DS

I just got one for Christmas, and I love it so far. Anyone else have one too? I'm still learning mine, and don't have all the accessories yet. I'm curious about going wireless, but I only have a wireless card for my PC. I do have a nice case for it.

I really like Brain Age 2. I also have The Simpsons, and Alvin and The Chipmunks. The last 2 games are mostly for my daughter. I need more games for myself.

I like the nintendo ds too.. I don't have one, but an ex had one, and they are a lot of fun (DS, not ex, ). Love the touch screen. Brain age is fun too, but now I am a bit concerned about my mental age I didn't score too great, but it was also the first time I had used a DS, so I blame that :P
As for the wireless, my friend has a usb thing (lack of better word) that he plugs in to the computer, and I guess it somehow transmits the internet to the DS technology these days, eh? Not sure where to get them though, as he found his at a thrift store (oddly enough) for real cheap

I'd sure love to know how your friend does that.

My Brain Age is getting better everyday I train. I really like Brain Age 2, and they say you aren't missing anything by not having the original Brain Age. It took me a little bit to figure out some of the tests, but once I did, I was able to get through them fairly quick.

I just got two a few weeks before christmas on my birthday, two people got me the Zelda package so I gave one to my girl.

I already ordered my revolution R4 for like 40 shipped and have something like 10 gigs of DS and GBA games already downloaded waiting for it to get here.

Just about all of my friends have one.

They have Wi-Fi support which is handy for playing with people all over the world (i think world, maybe just local)

I wish I had one. A friend of mine recommends Castlevania or the new Contra for the DS for a game you might like. YOu can never go wrong with Zelda too!

I use to play this game called Chu-Chu rocket for Game Boy Advance, you can probably get it REALLY cheap - probably the single most addictive game I have played.

My only big complaint about the DS is the lack of support for WPA. I don't care to set my network up with WEP since it's kinda pointless, so now I gotta buy that USB wi fi adapater thing.

I haven't checked out all the accessories yet, but I imagine I can get a wireless card for the DS through the manufacturer or Game Stop. Spiral, where did you get your wi-fi card?

I saw Castlevania, and I may get that.

**Edit-I just went to Game Stop.com and found all the accessories. Forty dollars for a wi-fi card. I'm not sure I even need one, but I see they have all the accessories that I might need.

You don't need to buy a wireless card if your wireless network is open or uses WEP for security, if it uses WPA, which it should, then you can get the wireless adapter that I am under the impression acts as a bridge. So you put that in your PC and it will accept the DS wifi connection and then forward it on to your normal wireless.

I'm not sure if our home wireless network is open or not. That is for our desktops. We can't use our laptop until we get a new A/C adapter. I'll probably go ahead and get the wi-fi card eventually for downloads. I also noticed the pictochat, but haven't had a chance to explore it yet, as I have no wireless card.

I was at Game Stop yesterday, and I saw that they sell a web browser for the DS. It's a cool idea, but they want $35.00, and all it does is take you to the web. It wont support an IM program either.

I got some early birthday presents yesterday, more DS games. Nintendogs, Hotel Dusk and Star Trek Tactical Assault.

I don't think I'll need to use the wireless feature unless my husband gets a DS too.
