Actually... every review I've read of Gunpey DS, does in fact say there is single card download play that is not a demo. I'm thinking this was cut out at the last minute for some reason.

Nope. Just a demo. Randomly selected stage. No multiplay unless the other player has a game card.

Cooking Mama just downloads a demo as well. i was all let down.

Cooking Mama, got you.

If you wanted a competitive Cooking Mama, you have the option to try the Cooking Mama Cook Off! game coming out for the Wii. :3

Huh, I'll list some.

Mario Hoops 3 on 3 - Four-player single-card download play. Four-player Muti-card play. Single-card download play only allows you to play two mini games, Dribble Race and Coin Hunter. Muti-card play allows you to play both mini games and basketball free play mode.

Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin - Two-player Muti-card play. No single-card download option. Only a small co-op course and shop mode is available through Wi-Fi, playing wirelessly allows you to do all three boss rush courses and shop mode. Five more characters are also available to choose from on wireless play.
