You
can play multiplayer games with a Nintendo DS Lite even if you don’t
possess a copy of the game. If one of your friends has a
multiplayer game card, they can use their Nintendo DS Lite as a host for the game session and you can join the multiplayer game.
jQuery('.intro .thumbnail').each(function(i,e){
jQuery(e).find('img').one('error',function(){ jQuery(e).remove(); });
});
Things You'll Need:
Using One Card to Host the Game
-
Step 1
Look on the game’s
packaging for the "Multiplayer" icon. If the game requires only one
player to have a copy of the game, the icon will show two DS Lites: a
DS Lite with a black screen transmitting waves to a DS Lite with a
white screen. Below the two DS Lites is a range of numbers which
indicates how many players the game can support.
-
Step 2
Put the game card in the Nintendo DS Lite that is acting as the host for the multiplayer game session and start it up.
-
Step 3
Have
the other players turn on their systems. They will use the main menu
screen to access the "DS Download Play" icon. They need to tap the icon
to begin downloading the game information from the host DS Lite.
-
Step 4
Begin playing when all of the systems have finished downloading the game information from the host.
Multiple Cards for Multiple Players
-
Step 1
Look
at the "Multiplayer" icon. If every player in the game session needs a
copy of the game in order to play, the icon will show two DS Lites,
both with black screens, transmitting waves toward each other. A range
of numbers is under this graphic and indicates how many people can play
at one time.
-
Step 2
Read
the game's instruction manual on how to set up the game session. The
steps required vary by company and sometimes by title within the same
company.
