for wirless internet, do you just buy the adapter thing and thats it? Becuase i want to have the wii upstairs but my computer is downstairs. also, what type of adapter is best for wirless internet and how many do you need. sorry for all the questions but i really want to be able to play virtual console games the day I get the wii.

ive heard that the DS adaptor can work for connecting the wii to the internet, but nintendo hasnt confirmed it or dissimssed it. and u dont have to get it wireless.. an ethernet kit will become availabe soon after launch, and it uses cords to get to the internet. if u play the wii upstairs and the comp is downstairs, u may want to get an ethernet kit. the signal MAY not reach ur wii.

1. buy a wifi compatible game
2. go 2 the wifi section in the game(usually at the title screen)
3. go 2 configure wifi
4. then just follow what the menu says
