Nintendo 42 All-Time Classics online play

Dug this out for the first time in ages but can't seem to connect online with it. I entered my internet settings but its refusing to accept them. Any advice would be appreciated.

Solution 1:

If I am correct in what game this is (a Nintendo DS title), it is because they discontinued the online services for Nintendo DS back in 2014:

The Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service, which provides certain online functionality for many Wii, Nintendo DS, and Nintendo DSi software titles, has been discontinued. This service change does not impact the ability to play these titles offline. F

Examples of Discontinued Functionality: Online play and matchmaking Leaderboards and tournament data Sharing of user generated content (ghost data, user created levels) User exchange of in-game items or characters (Global Trade Station) Free add-on content or downloads (new levels, in-game items, Mystery Gifts)

Games and Systems Impacted: Wii, Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi games that use the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service, no longer have access to the features listed above. This includes Wii mode on Wii U and Nintendo DS games played on Nintendo 3DS family systems.
