How do I link my Nintendo WFC ID with my My Nintendo account?
The first thing you must do is locate your Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ID by using the Tenchu: Dark Secrets game:

1. Select "Mission Start," then select a file to load (1, 2, or 3). Select "Continue" to access the Mission Menu.
2. Select "Wi-Fi," then select "Yes."
3. Select "Wi-Fi Market Settings."
4. Tap Options, then System Information to view the WFC ID.

Once you have your Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ID handy, the next step is to link it to your My Nintendo profile. To do this:

1. Go to www.nintendowifi.com and log in using your My Nintendo account.
2. Click on "Link your Nintendo WFC ID" at the top of the screen, near the login information.
3. Type the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ID into the space marked, "Add Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection ID," then click "Go."
4. Write down the nickname exactly as it appears (including upper and lowercase.)
5. Enter the nickname into the Nintendo DS (how to).
   Within 60 minutes, you must use this DS with the new nickname to log in to Nintendo WFC using a compatible game. If you wait longer than 60 minutes before using one of the WFC features online, you will need to re-start the process and get a new nickname.
6. To complete registration, turn off the Nintendo DS, place a Nintendo WFC-compatible game into the system, turn it back on, and use one of the online features that connects you to the Nintendo WFC connection. The registration process will be complete once you successfully connect.
• To verify that the ID's have been linked, log back into the website. The list of registered WFC ID's will appear. It may take several minutes for the registration to appear.
• You will also receive an email that either confirms the link, or lets you know that there were problems.
• If you receive an email that your link failed, verify that you have changed the DS nickname -- NOT a nickname in the game. (Some games allow you to enter a player nickname in the game, but you must actually change the nickname for the DS.)
