Nintendo's DS finally coming online

By Ryan Block

Wouldn't you know it, Nintendo's finally announced their plans to bring the
DS to the wonderful world of the Internet (which we happen to know a thing or two about). We're not entirely sure how "broken" the WiFi is on the Nintendo DS as is, but perhaps partly due to buckling under the pressure of the PSP's online gameplay features and partly due to, you know, listening to customers, Ninny got IGN to build a gaming network for their first wireless online-enabled title, Animal Crossing DS (due November). Yeah, we know once the DS has a browser like the PSP/Wipeout Pure we might very well have to revisit our previously very one-sided
DS vs. PSP hacks contest, so stay tuned later this year, ok?
