    Find a DS hotspot near you.

    JiWire helps DS owners get connected

    Nintendo licenses hotspot-finding directory service for use with Wi-Fi Connection.

    Have a DS but don't know where you can hop online with Nintendo's Wi-Fi Connection service? Help has arrived. Wireless Internet hotspot-finding service JiWire today announced that Nintendo has licensed its directory to let DS owners find the nearest free hotspots with ease. DS owners in the US, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Panama, and Chile can log on to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection Web site and enter a street address and zip code to find the closest hotspots.

    If you don't click the box to include non-partner hotspots, it's pretty much just a map to the nearest McDonald's but if you do it finds some others.

    I'm going to be spending a lot of time at the MickeyD's 3/4 of a mile from my house when I get Mario Kart and Animal Crossing.

    Apparantly, I'm supposed to go to a Mcdonalds in Brooklyn Heights to play DS.

      The closest hotspot to me is like, an hour and a half drive away.

        Try searching for non-participating hotspots.

          Nows it's a Tequilaberries...oh well. At least it's closer.
          Actually, I don't even have a DS, but may be getting one for Christmas.

                  Mine is in my house!

                  I got a wireless connection.

                    Does anyone else have anything different from McDonalds? That is all I see.

                      Thats all you get unless you also look at "non partner sites" as well.

                        I got a hotel and a couple coffee joints when I put in non-partner. McDonald's is still the closest though.

                          The McD's 15 minutes away doesn't have Wi-Fi, but the Baymont Inn near it does!

                          Doesn't matter. I refuse to spend my time at some place that isn't my house just to play online games, when I can do it at my own house. If my router won't work, I can get teh dongle.

                            I don't even have a high speed connection let alone wireless so I'm going to be living in McDonald's.

                              That is, until more, non-food-related chains participate.
