    According to Nintendo, all free DLC on software for the original Wii and Nintendo DS will not be available starting May 20th. (the same day wi-fi connection ends for original Wii and DS games) I'm really not surprised they're doing this, but you should get any free DLC now if you want it. Here's the official press release from Nintendo:

    As of May 20th, 2014, it will no longer be possible to download additional free content for certain Nintendo DS/DSi software. This includes free puzzles for games in the Professor Layton series, additional items and furniture in Animal Crossing: Wild World, and other titles.

    This is due to the upcoming termination of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service on May 20th. After this date, it will no longer be possible to use online features of Nintendo DS/DSi and Wii software such as online play, matchmaking and leaderboards.

    Even after this date, it will still be possible to use the Nintendo DSi Shop and the Wii Shop Channel, as well as DS Download Play and Multi-Card Play.

    If you own titles that are affected by this termination, we recommend you to download all available free content before May 20th. Affected titles include:

    Animal Crossing: Wild World
    Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies
    Professor Layton and the Curious Village
    Professor Layton and Pandora’s Box
    Professor Layton and the Lost Future
    Professor Layton and the Spectre’s Call
    Pokémon Black Version
    Pokémon Black Version 2
    Pokémon White Version
    Pokémon White Version 2

    ^ Wait, what does that patch fix? Because if it has anything to do with controls, then I obviously never downloaded it. Razz

    Nu, it's nothing to do with controls but game play. As there's an actual Skyward Sword game breaking glitch; because if you try going to get the dragons out of order you can't finish playing the game & get stuck.

    I;m sure most people got the DLC so it's not that big of a deal.
