All versions of the Nintendo DS use wi-fi to connect to other DS's in range.
As with most other wi-fi devices, the range is around up to 50 meters, but it can work further depending on interference and if anything is in the way.
The Nintendo DS and DS lite does not have a friend code system so there is no way to get friends on Pictochat. As long as your friend is within range of your DS console, you can communicate through Pictochat but you cannot save friend codes.
On a Nintendo DS or DSLite, the Pictochat application can be found on the home menu. If you have your system set to boot to the game without going through the main menu, take the game card out before starting the system. On the DSi or DSi XL, the Pictochat application will be on your DSi menu.
You can pictochat up to 65 feet away from one another. It goes this far on DS, DS Lite, and DSI. Not 3DS. Wich sucks. Ihave a 3DS and cant pictochat,but Can communicate with SWAPNOTE!
For the most part, yes you can. If you want to connect with pictochat or DS games (including DS Download), you can connect between a Nintendo DS and DSi. However, for DSi specific games, such as DSi games and certain applications, the Nintendo DS will not be able to connect. But, note that certain DSiWare games that can DS download play still can be connected to the Nintendo DS.
As far as I know, Nintendo DS does not have sleep mode.
Around 65 feet!
I had an original ds and a ds lite and both of them had pictochat.
Only with Pictochat
Yes, since both the Nintendo DS and DSi has the Pictochat application, you can connect these two systems together.However, the Nintendo 3DS does not have pictochat, so the 3DS will not be able to connect
The Nintendo 3DS does not have PictoChat so you cannot chat with a person with a DS.
You actually can. However, the DSi users can have a bunch of different colors (to write with), and the Nintendo DS does not have those. So, Warning: Unless you do not get jealous easily, do not Pictochat with a DSi user using your DSL. ;)
Yes. From every DS, you can access PictoChat from the main menu.
The Nintendo DS and DS lite does not have a friend code system so there is no way to get friends on Pictochat. As long as your friend is within range of your DS console, you can communicate through Pictochat but you cannot save friend codes.
you can play gameboy games and Nintendo ds games on it you can ds download onto other peoples games and pictochat with people on it
The same way as Ds lite
pictochat is where if u have a Nintendo ds it can talk to another ds within a certain range. you use the touch screen to write or draw things. it also has info about picto chat in the manual that came with it
Yes, but only pictochat, and games work.
