It seems to me it would be possible to play standard DS->DS multiplayer games over the Internet.  If special WiFi software was developed for the PC that would trick the DS into thinking it's connected to another DS, the software could dispatch DS packet data to a PC in a remote location with an opposing DS.  This special software would need to support the RT25xx chipset, the same WiFi chipset used by the DS.  This project is way beyond my scope, but I think someone with more time and talent could make this work.  What do you think?

Wow! I didn't know about that project.  I guess I can't take credit for a unique idea.  :(  But I hope Stephen Stair gets it to work.   :)
