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.

How do you get friends on pictochat for DS?

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.


How far away can you be when you do picto chat?

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!


How do you access pictochat on ds?

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.


Can you connect the DSi with the DS lite?

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.
