I thought it would be fixed with the DSi because that device can be set up to use WPA secured wireless. Then I discovered that any DS game that uses wireless won't allow you to connect from within the game because the game itself is looking for a WEP connection.
You would think that the game developers would have left it up to the hardware to make the connection but noooooooo. :(
I saw you playing Tales of Graces yesterday. I am trying to complete all the inn requests at the moment although I spent a while solving switch puzzles in the Sandshroud Ruins. When they got too complex I made my exit and continued to look for request items and uncover secret locations.
I was never able to get any of the downloadable stuff in DQ IX or participate in the on-line experience because the game does not support my router security. Unfortunately DS games cannot find your internet connection if you are using WPA and I wasn't about to go back to the less secure WEP just for DS games.
I still have my physical Xbox copy of this game. It was a day one purchase but I didn't play much of it because of the battle system.
You will not be able to connect any DS games to the internet unless you are using WEP security on your router. Even though the DSI can connect to wireless that has WPA security, DS games don't recognize it.
I was never able to download any of the puzzles because of this restriction.
The mini games come from solving certain puzzles.
You are right in assuming that the Wii and DS stores are not going away. You should have received a message from Nintendo on your Wii explaining what goes and what stays. It's basically just on-line gaming which has absolutely no impact unless you play Wii games on-line.
They take them off the list after a few months. Once you've downloaded or "purchased" a PSN+ game though it doesn't go away unless you let your membership lapse. Even then it's available to you again if you decide to start your membership back up.
I always grab every PSN+ game as soon as it's available even if I don't download it until much later. That way I can't miss out.
Well, in the end it was my fault for not paying attention so I'm glad they saw fit to forgive my stupidity. :D
I never frikkin' learn. LOL
I went with Tales of Symphonia. Now watch, they'll give it to us free in a couple of months.
I'm just finishing up the main story in ToG F. Great game. I have Tales of Xillia waiting and Tales of Vesperia to get back to. I also picked up Tales of Symphonia on PSN today.
