Networking with the Wii?
I like a lot of the games on the Wii from what I have seen. I don't have a Wii yet but soon. Exactly what games can you network with and play with someone around the world.
What is the difference between the Main Wii Code and the codes for Smash Brothers, and Mario Kart?
Can you network on the older virtual console games?
Thanks

If wifi is not built into the game itself its not capable of online play.
Here is a list of Wii games with wifi:

The Wii code is what you give to people you want to connect Wii to Wii. Allows you to send Wii-mail, pics, Miis etc. directly to their Wii.
Individual game codes link you to other players that have the same game. Its in game link only. It doesnt link you to their Wii.
And its somewhat of a pain to input and keep track of both types, but Nintendo claims to be working on making it easier.
I dont think there are any VC games with wifi. Some WiiWare games do have it.
