DS crap fountain - educating the new to gaming

OK, so the DS has been the hands down winner in this generation of consoles, if you disagree may I point you to the 64million consoles sold in just about 3 years (let’s put this in perspective, the ps2 sold 120 million in 7 years).
And of course, anything popular will get a steady stream of crap titles flooding out the decent ones.
I mean, just how many more “brain training” and loveable animal nappy swapping games can we take?

It’s nice that a platform is testing new grounds, and some titles such as the language training ones are certainly great ideas.

However, it’s your gamers duty to “educate” anyone you see picking up titles like “I did it mum!” without making howls of derision by thwapping them round the back of the head with a Final Fantasy or Mario Kart DS box!
Show them what they really mean by “touch generations”

Ever wondered why your DS doesn’t want to connect to your WiFi network?
This video should help explain why.
It’s a shame that often you are limited to the least secure network device, maybe its time that someone came up with the ability to broadcast multiple wifi networks from the one access point, especially in the days of MIMO.
