2 The DS is not just constrained to Bluetooth and Wi-Fi communication. Whisperings in our ears point towards being able to play against / send a signal to someone else with a DS anywhere in the world, instantly.
3 The DS will have a remote ‘daisy-chain’ feature, whereby on say a University campus or shopping centre, a number of DS’ can connect one to the next until all the DS consoles in the area are linked up and playing together. Almost like they are hooked in a giant loop.
4 There is substantial support for the project from one key financial backer (Nintendo?) and numerous other companies working on software.

We will leave you with one thought. Nintendo Europe, Nintendo of America and Nintendo Co Ltd. in Japan have always maintained the point that they do not want to have to charge for online gaming. They see it as one of the major hindrances. It is no secret that Nintendo are not online, but it is also no great secret that Nintendo are investing in online research. Could they be ready to spring on us the biggest easy to access, global communication tool since the Internet? Could all of this innovation come out of the book with the console? We will have more information, confirmations and speculations for you when we are allowed to comment or have more information to pass on.
