Great little game, enjoying it despite the language barrier

Any idea what the wi-fi and download options are?
There was a preview that said there was some sort of co-op over wireless/wi-fi?
P.S got my first s-rank lol.

Works G6Lite with Dofat, soft reset (force r/w too), and trim.  NIce,

Stuck on the mission "Stage Two"  how do I kill the guy in the red ship?  I can't even hit him.

No idea if you had any luck getting past it.
But I don't think you're suppose to shoot him down - i say this cos after a crazy dogfight that seemed to last an eternity he started to fly away off the play area - but me being me I turned on the afterburner to try and shoot him down (again) and ended up crashing in to him - then watched him fly off into the sunset :'(

LOL!!! my first thought was correct LOL!

Just run away I legged it to the edge of the map triggered a cut scene and voila next mission

There's some kind of aircraft carrier on the 2nd part of the first stage - Am I supposed to be bombing it or protecting it? Cos I can't tell if the angry japanese guy is shouting "What the fuck are you doing?!" at me

I keep getting either 'mission failed' or a cut scene and some grey haired guy talking to me followed by 'game over'

Erm the big ship Oil tanker? Shoot the boats and what i presume are its propellers (or whatever ships have) at the back of the ship. I get the impression its gonna ram what looks like a heavily pixelated oil refinery??? but who can tell for sure?

Maybe who knows...................

I would say so, but it really could have used touch screen controls. I just don't like using the D-pad for this game.

So I had my first game on wi-fi and lost both matches lol - It seems well a bit pointless really (no i'm not bitter honest) has anyone had any problems with the ds to ds option? Seems to crash for us after a few seconds of play - wi-fi is ok but ds to ds is a big fat no go...

CONGRATS!! keep the points earned to unlock a good plane for the wi-fi (i.e lots of hitpoints and afterburner)oh and the better air to air missles to otherwise you will die like a dog - I did!
Also some of the missions are a bit odd in one of em you just have to follow your wingman but if you do it with the afterburners on you get a good rank LOL

Better and more varied than Starfox DS.

Very nice game, great that the menus are in English, its easy to work out what to do in the missions and wi-fi is brilliant. Would've preferred stylus control though.

Look forward to an English release but I hope the voice overs aren't the usual shitness that we get in games.

Nice that Nintendo are still doing new games for the DS as well as franchises.

Whenever you get to the first mission that has a red enemy jet, no matter what you do you cannot hit it. So just focus on the ground targets and when you have the cutscene where you fight 1v1, go for the 3 remaining ground targets and fly out of bounds to end the mission.

Can someone with knowledge of Japanese language post what the different rows of stats for planes and weapons are? I know more bars is better but it would be nice if I knew what it was better at
