No Tony thats not what it means, with the DS you can play a 2 player wireless game with a mate with only 1 of you having the game, so the one who has the game sets up the 2 player and the one without clicks on download software and it'll find the game

Thanks.I thought I read somewhere that you could download demos and I thought I saw some demos on an offical Nintendo magazine before but they dont seem to have demos anymore.

You can download game demos by going into game shop that has DS display stand with Download station (It will say this on the stand). It will also have instruction for you on how to load games demo too. My local game shop have that (gamestation)

Havent tried it myself though.

Why do you have to go in one of the game stores?I would have thought you could do it via a wireless router.

This is how it works.. but the website is US so I guess store locator wont be too helpful

Decided to start a new town on Animal Crossing as I didn't really get into it first time round, its bug catching day today where you can get yourself a free net if you haven't got one

Finished at 6pm and hadn't found anything big so put the clock back an hour :sly:

My biggest is 73mm and the winner so far has 93mm

What is animal crossing about?I hear everyone saying how great it is on the AV forum but all Iread people doing is selling fruit on the market stalls which doesn't sound like fun.

Hard to explain really Tony, basically you move into a little town where you get a house that you have to pay the morgage off by working, fishing, catching bugs etc. You can buy a bigger house and buy furniture for it aswell as plant trees and other plants around your house

Your town has a town hall, a post office so you can have a bank account, pay off your morgage and send letters to other residents.

Its all run in real time and different days of the year has different events happening in your town, like today was catch the longest bug day that ended at 6pm.

Might all sound daft but its extremely addictive, i've spent most of the day on it, lost the bug competition but worked all day and have paid off my morgage, i'm getting a new bigger house built for me tomorrow :cool:

Oh and you can visit friends towns over wifi

Sounds a bit like sim city which I enjoyed on the snes. I might have to buy it the only bad thing about these games is they need a lot of your time on it where as Mario Kart you can play 5 mins then turn it off.

Animal Crossing can be played as 5 minutes game also. You only need to play quite a bit on certain day when thing happen(like competition). Then other days you just turn on, water the plants, check the shop then nothing to do after that.
