Download play was legendary. I went to this after school program at my school, it was basically just a daycare until your parents got off work and could come get you. But anyway, so many kids had the DS. Download play allowed 8 of us to play mario kart while only one needed a copy of the game. It was an incredible childhood.

when I was in highschool 8 years ago, my friends DS had the parental locks enabled and she wanted them off. I called the Nintendo support phone number on the back of the DS and said she was my daughter and that I forgot the password then the operator told me how to remove the lock the backend way. Good ol' fashioned social engineering

The way to remove the parental controls is to click "i forgot" then go to the mkey generator and it will give you a few prompts, and it should give you the code to remove it. My parents did that to me on my 3DS and it was too easy. my dad ended up modding it lol

I purchased a dsi with parental permissions, there was a website that you could find that after going to remove the parental permissions it says to call a number and it shows a code, in the website you put in the console, the code it gives, and it generates a reset code and it works.

Pro tip on brightness: Hold Start or Select then use the volume buttons to change the brightness (I can't remember whether it was the Start button or Select button, but I think it was the latter) It also wouldn't surprise me if the parental controls PIN turned out to be 0137, 1370, 3701, 7013, 1730, 1037, 1073 or just simply 0713 or 1307, which is the birthday of the original DSi owner. All the suggested possibilities of the PIN are varieties of the birthday anyways, and it became too many for me to write every single one of them
