^_^ Finally! Nintendo has officially announced that the Nintendo DS will soon have a free service that will allow its users to connect to eachother through ANY wireless hotspot!

Nintendo also announced information on the next gen "Nintendo Revolution"! ^_^

"Iwata announced that Revolution will feature built-in Wi-Fi protocols, which will allow users around the world to connect with one another wirelessly. Revolution’s technological heart, a processing chip developed with IBM and code-named "Broadway," and a graphics chip set from ATI code-named "Hollywood," are being designed to deliver game experiences not possible to date."
This would also mean that the DS might be able to use Revolution to connect to the world! ^_^ For those that don't have wireless networks at home.

"Zelda: Iwata wowed the crowd by showing previously unreleased footage of the stunning Legend of Zelda adventure for Nintendo GameCube. The game will launch later this year, and is expected to be the most sought-after game of 2005 on any console. To see the video, click here (http://www.zelda.com/universe/). "
Watch that video and tell me the Nintendo GameCube is the weakest link of the home consoles! =P After seeing that PS2 doens't look so good to me. xD The graphics in this new zelda rival what the xbox can to!! =P

I just read the same thing on http://p2pnet.net/story/4184

I got my DS a while ago... although I want the pink one! ^_^;

Still, I'm glad there's more too it now!
Sooo how will it use the wifi? will it be like a Bios upgrade for the DS that will come with the games that support it?
