Hi I have a DS Lite and love it so far.........Very addicting and fun........ How do you use the DS download and Play? Everytime I click on it it searches but finds nothing.......I am on Wirless Broadband so does that help...........? Do you need other games that are wifi before you can use this feature??

You do not just download games for free, the world isn't perfect :(. This feature is available with some games. How it works is if you friend has "Mario Kart DS" (I think it had this feature) and brings their DS to play with you. You can download the game from them to play multiplayer with them, without having to own the game yourself. This doesn't mean you download the full game from them forever its just the Demo and Multiplayer and once you exit you have to reconnect with them to play.

You need to be near a source with downloadable content in order for the download to work. For example, if you're with a friend who has a DS, you can download their game to play against them. Or if you have a Nintendo Wii, you can download trial versions of games off the Wii.
