Hi guys, i recently read on some game forums that you are capable of sending DS demos to you DS via your PC. I'm not the best with computers, so i was wondering if any one can help establish this connection from my PC?

I would appreciate any help.

Exactly what I thought.. so I Googled it and found:

www.pocketgamer.co.uk/

BUT!!!! it would seem that it requires that you have a Wi-Fi card which utilises a specific chipset. (Link -> ralink.rapla.net/ )

If you have no idea what a 'chipset' is, don't get your hopes up too much and then come back complaining to the forum:
WAAAGH! That's soo ghey, I'm gonna set teh Pokemon on j00 @55!
(...Is it just me, or does anyone else shudder to think what the world's gonna be like when they've retired and the peanuts who communicate like this are in charge?...)

From just the little I've read on digg, it doesn't work for everyone.
Some have the chipset and others obviously don't know a chipset from their butt, yet they'll still complain... peanuts- is there any escaping them? *sigh*

I haven't tried it...(doh! and I'm not likely to because I don't have the right model D-Link card)... but if anyone DOES know what they're doing AND has the right chipset AND it works, I'd be interested in reading about it here!

If you want to know if going through the process is worth it, check out the list of demos here:
wiki.akkit.org/

If you're a 'fiddler', like moi, you may also like to check out www.pocketgamer.co.uk/

da_bear Out!

P.S. There's also some old news pre-Wii release that the Revolution was rumoured to be able to transfer demos to the DS.
