What it is
It is a piece of software that ships with the DSi and allows you to download from other DS's, the Nintendo Channel on the Nintendo Wii, and various DS download stations in retail stores.
Uses
- It is used primarily for single DS card multiplayer, when two or more people play with only one game card.
- Animal Crossing City Folk utilizes DS Download Play to allow players to visit each other's towns without Nintendo WFC.
- To transfer Nintendo WFC settings and ID between DSs.
- To temporarily download demos from Wiis or DS Download Stations.
Changes
It is virtually unchanged from DS Download Play for the original DS and DS Lite except for that it returns to the DSi menu when exiting as opposed to shutting the system down.
How to detect
The DS Download Play dosn`t have a SSID so it is easy to find for sniffers
