    Hi all,

    I tried to use multiplayer feature on Mario Party DS rom. The game itself only requires one DS card for multiplayer online, so I thought to give it a try with my friend with my R4 card. But, it didn't work (sadly, we couldn't play together :'(). So, I was wondering if we still use that multiplayer feature in every game with R4? has anyone succesfully tried it before?

    I myself have done it with a friend on an M3 Simply (which is nearly exactly the same as an R4) and it works.

    Is your firmware the latest one available? The problem might be that your R4 needs an update.

    1) You can play multiplayer with 2 R4's and roms.
    2) Download play doesn't work!(R4) (only in rare occasions)
    3) Wifi i don't know.

    have fun

    Yeah, they run the same way as DS catridges, but some ROMS have glitches that don't allow you to play online, download play, and other things like that

    Someone should make a compatability list like that.
    That would solve a lot of questions

    Roms can play online.. But emulators can't, well, to the general public that is.

    I remember someone doing something to their emulator, enabling it to play online.

    Someone crack the code. Fast!
