Ten things you didn't know about Nintendo Wi-Fi

If you're one of the 200,000 plus unique users of the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection, you may or may not be aware of several of the finer points of the service. In order to inform and educate, Nintendo have kindly released an article entitled "10 things everyone should know about Nintendo Wi-Fi connection". We're not sure that everyone needs to know everything on the list, but it's certainly a nice gesture. So if you've got a pub quiz on the subject of Nintendo Wi-Fi this week (very unlikely), kill two birds with one stone: find out how to check whether the pub has free Wi-Fi and prepare for the quiz!

Most of that information is available in the assorted collection of manuals that come with the wi-fi games... I am thinking that list is for people who are on the fence, trying to decide if they should join in too. Details about how many users have tried as well as the peak periods are useful enough. Now, off to take that quiz!!

I think the 200,000 users figure is pretty old. According Gamesindustry.biz its up to 3 Million.

Thats an incredible number. I think thats more than the original xbox had in its entire lifetime and ninty did it in 2 months.
