I've been thinking of buying one of these, But can you play Mario Kart: Double Dash online with it? I have a buddy that lives a couple of states away, Can I play MK: DD With him by using this adapter?

Mario Kart multiplayer is only possible via a direct "system to system" hookup. You can't play "online" like you're thinking. He would have to have another GC with a Mario Kart disc in the same room. From what I remember, even when you have everything hooked up, it's still pretty limited...essentially a big hassle with little payoff.

Do you think that It will work? I have my computer hooked up to the DSL box with a USB Cable And (Long story short) The game consoles are hooked up to the DSL Box with ethernet cables. Also, I'm unsure about it because this software Could be programmed to override my system, Wich wouldn't be good.

If you're looking to buy one, I have a sealed one I'm willing to let go. Shoot me a PM if you are interested.

It is quite a hassle, but I would have to disagree. 12-16 player Mario Kart in Co-Op mode is the greatest thing known to man. In my opinion anyway.

I did tunneling with MKDD briefly one time. It worked well, akin to Xbox Connect or Xlink Kai if you have experience with those.

Here's a question since this is on the topic of the BBA.

Since the Wii can run Gamecube software, does the built in wireless take the place of the GC BBA? It would be pretty awesome for me to be able to play the wife some Mario Kart across the house.

No. I know, because I had some freinds who tried to play some PSO on a Wii (Offline mode worked, but Online mode couldn't be used)

Crap.. maybe with the USB wired adapter? It's no big deal, I wouldnt really expect Nintendo to spend a lot of time trying to support the 2 or 3 games that actually use it.
