Nintendo DS Wifi Bounty

The Nintendo DS WiFi Bounty is a project to generate freely available, license unencumbered internet connectivity libraries for the Nintendo DS, for use with a portable C or C compiler (primarily GCC.)

Bounty: $3,010.45 (and counting)

Success hinges around distributing source which can achieve TCP or UDP connections over IP to a wireless router through the NDS’ custom wireless networking hardware, as well as documentation for the hardware and a tiny demonstration application which verifies two-way communication with another TCP or UDP enabled device (presumably a PC.)

Programming skills: Portable C or C, the ability to develop embedded software, a familiarity with 802-group wireless technologies, and a familiarity with IP-based communications protocols.
