You change the WiFi settings in a game that has WiFi. Since the DS shipped with the WiFi hardware, but not being ready to actually go online, there are no options inside the default DS OS.

Congrats on your purchase btw. *huggles his old decrepit "fat" DS* Someday I might upgrade to light... for now though I'm still happy with ol' fat-and-grey.

I hope you enjoy your new DS lite. I got mine for Christmas and I love it and it's great.

Me too. The DS Lite just feels weird in my opinion. My fat one is great and fits in my pocket nicely. (since I'm like 6"1 it's easy to fit in).

I'll describe how I do it, but it's stupid. (I'd take a picture, but I'd have to hunt around for the webcam)

Basically, I hold the left side like any other portable console. With my right hand, I hold the stylus and sort of.... wrap my little finger around the DS to kinda support it. Your finger gets tired after that, though. Most of the time I just hold it with my right hand. o_o;;

Hooray, congrats on your buy...

I started with an original Nintendo DS, then gave my buddy my original Nintendo DS, and preordered my Polar White Nintendo DS Lite and got it on Launch Day... then traded my Polar White Nintendo DS Lite in for a Nintendo DS Lite Onyx Black, now I'm waiting for the Light Blue Nintendo DS Lites to come out in the US and I'll trade in my Onyx Black one for the Light Blue one!!!

Just hold it however is most comfortable. Most games that require a lot of touch screen action I usually find something to prop the DS on.

I like the size/shape of my original DS, but the screens on the DS lite are so much better it's not even funny... I've heard of mods where you can replace the regular DS screens with DS lite screens, but I'm not that adventurous... and I'm currently quite poor...

I kind of dislike games that use the Touch screen too much. Like Metroid, how am I supposed to aim and push jump with only two hands?

I'm really starting to dislike the Touch Screen, actually. The stylus is just getting annoying. I'm not even playing any of my DS games anymore. (I would be playing HMDS, but... well, that game sucks.) <_<;

GBA forever, mannnn.

Yours cost $149.99? The ones over here are only $129.99. Even at EBGames.

Anyway, congrats on getting a DS Lite. I'm hoping to get a black one for my birthday.
