It's been revealed that as of November 17th Nintendo Australia will be rolling out Wifi Hotspots for the Nintendo DS. The Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection hotspots will initially be available across 26 Australian retail locations, including selected EB Games, Myer and Dick Smith stores. The 26 hotspots will be rolled out from the 17th of November, and conclude by November 30th. A full list of participating stores will be available soon on http://nintendowifi.com/.--- edit:CamDS However if you talk to anyone from EB (for example) they will have no idea what you're talking about, apparently this information is yet to get from Nintendo Australia to the store managers.The plan is to include free Nintendo Wifi Access, playable downloads available from Download Play and a special version of Bark Mode for those with Nintendogs allowing interaction without another DS console around.
Access to the Nintendo Wifi network will also be available from your home wifi network, but if you're not lucky enough to have wifi kicking around your house but still have broadband internet access you can get the Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector. This little device acts as a bridge between your broadband connection and the DS. It will only be available through Nintendo Australia, for just $AU49.95. You can order one by calling Nintendo Australia on 03 9730 9822. (if you haven't already pre-ordered yours!)
