About 10-20 ft.
On pictochat around 10 metres.
The Nintendo DS and DS lite does not have a friend code system so there is no way to get friends on Pictochat. As long as your friend is within range of your DS console, you can communicate through Pictochat but you cannot save friend codes.
You can pictochat up to 65 feet away from one another. It goes this far on DS, DS Lite, and DSI. Not 3DS. Wich sucks. Ihave a 3DS and cant pictochat,but Can communicate with SWAPNOTE!
You can get pictochat on your ipod.
65 feet for every DS model. . . . Says it right on the Nintendo website.
All versions of the Nintendo DS use wi-fi to connect to other DS's in range. As with most other wi-fi devices, the range is around up to 50 meters, but it can work further depending on interference and if anything is in the way.
pictochat is where if u have a Nintendo ds it can talk to another ds within a certain range. you use the touch screen to write or draw things. it also has info about picto chat in the manual that came with it
Around 65 feet!
I had an original ds and a ds lite and both of them had pictochat.
you and 1-15 other people must be with in 65 feet or closer to each other and be on the same pictochat channel of pictochat.
The range is 65 feet for all of the DS models including the DSi. . . . It says this on the Nintendo website. . . . Stupid feature due to the lack of range, hope Nintendo adds Wi-Fi to Pictochat.
