Nintendo Wireless Adapter Specification

1.1 (23th June 2005) by denopqrihg ([email protected])

This document describes how a GBA program can communicate with a plugged-in Nintendo wireless adapter. This info is not 100% accurate, nor am I responsible for any damage it may do. I am only sharing my partial knowledge.

Some general info

The Nintendo Wireless Adapter is a device that presents more multiplayer features than the link cable. It uses a kind of server/client approach (broadcasting, connections etc.). It allows to send quite large amounts of data at once (most I've seen was 80 bytes), has built-in synchronisation and much more.
This document is only about two player link. At the moment, I have no info about how it works with mre players.
