AFAIK Ignited doesn’t support multiplayer DS games as of yet. :(

Personally, for me, the advantages with the DS is that it runs GBA games and that it doesn’t verify games, which makes Homebrew a lot more easier.

Fair enough. I would probably just rely on emulators or, if I felt like putting in some additional effort, the virtual console and modified CIA files. I say would because I don't typically use my DS or 3DS for anything but those games.

CIA has got to be the coolest named filetype ever

Wait 'til you hear about FBI, the software used to install these files
