Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service for Nintendo DS and Wii to end this month - Polidicks

[quote=Nintendo] As of May 20, 2014, certain online functionality offered through Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection will no longer be accessible. The discontinued services include online play, matchmaking and leaderboards for many Wii, Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi games. For a comprehensive list of games and services that are affected, please check [URL]http://support.nintendo.com/servicesupdate[/URL]. Users can still play the games in offline mode, which continues to offer a rich game-play experience.

RIP, I had fun with this back in the day.

DS online sucked anyway, no body wants to use WEP on their router just so they can play games.

We shall Brawl to the very last night... [IMG]http://www.spawnfirst.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/WFC-790x444.jpg[/IMG]

RIP MarioKart DS and all you snaking bastards.

RIP Zelda DS multiplayer, you were fun for the few times I played it.

Aww man I remember having some really fun times playing Brawl and AC:CF with friends, and even making friends in AC:CF. It was really fun and it's a shame to see it go but, everything ends at some point.

Well looks like it's time for method 2 to get Pokemon into x&y without the GTS, hate the fact I have to buy a damn dongle just to PokeGen my Pokemon....

Sad to see it go..

I'm going to miss being bombed by a million blue shells at once on Mario Kart [IMG]http://fi.somethingawful.com/images/smilies/frown.gif[/IMG]

[QUOTE=Mio Akiyama;44715428]RIP creating Pokemon teams to transfer to X & Y[/QUOTE] You can still do it, just put the PokeGen Pokemon on your save file using a R4i save dongle, then use poke transfer to send it to x&y

Bought one of those usb dongles just to play Tony Hawk versus a friend who lived 10 minutes away. The good old days...

[QUOTE=lemonskunk;44715463]You can still do it, just put the PokeGen Pokemon on your save file using a R4i save dongle, then use poke transfer to send it to x&y[/QUOTE] I don't have an R4

I imagine the cheater to legitimate player ratio on those systems is about the same as sex bots to real people on the AOL chat rooms when those shut down years ago.

Kinda depressing really..alot of games are still active online. Especially Mario Kart.

[QUOTE=SlashSpeed;44715608]Kinda depressing really..alot of games are still active online.

That said, besides the lag issues and having to raise both shoulders towards the hackers in a "meh" response, I had pretty good fun. (Nintendo Wii RIP - bought in 2010 - Lasting today in 2014)

[QUOTE=Pepsi-cola;44713694]DS online sucked anyway, no body wants to use WEP on their router just so they can play games.[/QUOTE] Using a 3DS you can play DS games online with the standard security on your router

Welp, there goes the Wild World players that haven't moved to New Leaf yet

[QUOTE=lemonskunk;44715463]You can still do it, just put the PokeGen Pokemon on your save file using a R4i save dongle, then use poke transfer to send it to x&y[/QUOTE] You can still do it with an Action Replay as well last time I checked.
