The Nintendo DS has a special feature with which you can chat to your friends via text and pictures. The feature which is called Pictochat and may cause a problem for Nintendo as it could open doors for paedophiles to contact children.
Fox 6 was able to send messages on the DS from 300 ft away even tho Nintendo claim the range is only 65 ft. The company warns buyers in the manual and on their website to use caution if they happen to come across a stranger. However the problem Fox News 6 has found is that most parents don’t actually know about the Pictochat feature because they never read the manual!Â
So the message to all you kids out there is to stay safe and not to talk to strangers!
