You had a typo there, sir.

Sorry, just because it's free doesn't mean we can't complain about what we don't like. Besides,
we bought the games in the first place.
I don't really like what they did with their online, in more ways than one. Overall, the Nintendo Wi-Fi system is awesome, but it could be
so much better.
Friend codes are OK, but there are much better ways to manage that.
My biggest complaint about NWC is that they expect you to open up
every UDP port to wherever you're making the connection, being assigning an IP address to your DS to a computer with the USB connector. Somebody never told Nintendo anything about network security.
The worst thing is, if you don't do that, you'll run the risk not being able to connect to some people.
As I said, overall, it works and is good, but still could be better.
There's nowhere I can't reach.
