Sync two DSes over DS Wireless (PIPE DREAM/THEORETICAL SUGGESTION) #24

I had an idea to use two Nintendo DS handheld consoles connected wirelessly to queue up tracks for live shows, which could potentially revolutionize the way people approach music mixing with the DS. The idea involves playing one song while the other DS is ready to start the next track at a specific moment for a seamless transition. Although it may be challenging to maintain real-time syncing, a simple command could be used to start playing the second song when the first song reaches a certain point. While the traditional method can be used for now, this new approach has the potential to elevate the DS MUSIC GENRE to the next level.

I was doing groceries tonight and thought of another really great use case for this. So right now, if I want to control external hardware via SYNC click, I gotta give up a channel. Having a second DS do the sync click for me would free up the channel again. Even it's own stand alone app/program just for making sync would be interesting. This is for sure mental and I don't expect this to be prioritized at all but wanted it out there in case people of the neo rave future want a cool idea for an add on.
