Best Answer

Nintendo 3DS games are only playable on Nintendo 3DS systems, and in order to play Nintendo 3DS games multiplayer, you require multiple Nintendo 3DS systems. However, Nintendo DS and DSiWare games that support multiplayer can be played using the Nintendo 3DS system.

Yes, the Nintendo 3DS can play Nintendo DS games in multiplayer, both locally and online. Do be aware that to play DS games online, your wi-fi setup needs to be configured separately using the "Nintendo DS Connections" option in system settings.

Can you use a Dsi action replay to play 3ds games on a dsi?

No, simply because the action replay was built for DS games. You can't play 3DS games on a DSi anyways because the software that the DSi runs won't read the newer chips. Also, the 3DS chips won't fit into a DSi because of the way that the 3DS chip was designed. However, the DS games can be played on a 3DS because the newer systems can recognize the older games, you just can't use the 3D feature.

Why won't this Nintendo 3DS connect to Nintendo WFC?

Nintendo WFC was taken down in 2014. This is what regular DS games connected to when they went online. Now it is gone, you can no longer play regular DS games online, and that is true even if they are played in a 3DS (3DS games themselves use a different service).
