I purchased the Nintendo WiFi USB for use with my nintendo Wii on the 1st March 08 and was amazed to receive it on the 3rd March 08
After having a nightmare with a cheaper USB link i took the plunge and went for the Nintendo USB,and followed the on-screen instructions on my PC,after 10 minutes i had my internet connection.
i would recommend this product to anyone with Windows XP or Windows Vista
Best wifi device for a handheld. July 1, 2006
11 out of 11 found this review helpful
This wifi device is great.
I am one of the unlucky people who got a wifi dongle of another name, and
it was a big mistake.So i was a little scared of this item,
as i thought i may get the same problems.
I was wrong. Its a fantastic easy to use item.
Even the pc rookies will have no problems.
I am recomending this as i made the wrong choice myself in the past.The only warning is it is for the ds only, but you can use 5 at a time. Great job Nintendo.
Very worthwhile purchase. April 13, 2006

This quite expensive for a portable console accessory.. but it really is worth it, it will help you get alot more out of the compatable games, and the fact you can fully enjoy them then- the multiplayer, makes it worth the initial cost.
I have MarioKart and Animal Crossing, and both have the online implemented in a very safe and easy to access way.
You just plug the USB thing in, and after the initial installation on the computer, connect and all the compatable games should be able to connect without any problems...
So far I haven't had any problems with the USB thing, a few times I've failed to connect, but trying again seems to sort it out!
You don't need this if you have a wireless router already, and you need broadband for it to work at it's best. I haven't tried dial up, but I played with someone on Animal Crossing who did, and there was pretty bad lag.
There is an unnofficial one available which is cheaper, but I don't know how good it is.
The problem with this is that it doesn't work with Macs, and I think needs Windows XP, so look into this before you invest!
Neither of these were a problem for me, so I can't say.
You can find hotspots around if you keep your eyes open, but this is alot more convenient than sitting in the train station!
There is a good selection of online games- Mariokart, Animal Crossing, Tony Hawk, Metroid, Tetris are the one's avaliable now or this spring, and hopefully a Four Swords Zelda will rear it's head sometime.
I can highly recommend this if its compatible with your computer, as there is already a good selection of genres, and playing games like MarioKart online freshens them up again if you've already finished them.
The 2 games I've played have been made very safe online thanks to the "friend code" system. You exchange codes with someone and then play each other- this can be done via online message boards and it makes games like Animal Crossing more safe.. but on more competetive games like Mariokart you can just play anyone who is online with no chat feature.
Metroid has a voice chat feature, I don't know how this is implemented, but I'd guess it's only for games where you've exchanged friend codes to keep it family friendly.
I have no problem with this, as I can easily access online boards, but it may be a hassle for some people.
Orange broadband connection December 16, 2006

Despite seeing a lot of negative reviews on this page, I plucked up the courage to buy this item to connect my Wii console to the internet.
I have Windows XP, connect with basic Orange Broadband, through a wired connection. I am happy to say that the installation worked first time, it probably took about 15-20 minutes to install, and I have been able to view the shop channel and succesfully download Super Mario 64.
As the device has performed its intended purpose succesfully, I have no hesitation in awarding it 5 stars.
A must buy August 10, 2007

If you want to connect your DS / Wii to the internet and cannot face setting up an internal wireless network this is for you. I had set it up and connected to my Wii within 15 minutes. Very easy to setup (just put the CD in and follow the instructions) and no problems connecting (my Wii is the other side of my house and the connection is full strength). Cannot fault this product.
