Title: DS Download Station - Updatable?
Post by: Edfishy on April 18, 2006, 06:09:05 PM
I've been rather enjoying Nintendo's download kiosk at the nearby Best Buy, but something really bothers me... Will there be updates?

Does anyone know if the download station is just a piece of hardware, or is it an application.  If it is an application (ran on a DS or computer), anybody have a guess as to whether Nintendo can update these applications on a regular basis?

It would be quite wonderful to see a new demo roster every month or so, not to mention the possibillity of things like trailers for upcoming games, etc.

all it is, is a DS in a box. nintendo reps will run around and change what's in the ds every so often. that's it.

My DS demo kiosk (aka my PC) would get regular updates if I bothered to download them.

Gamecrazy employee mentioned that the Nintendo rep who installed their station stated that upgrades would come every 2 to 3 months.

Here's some pics of the internals of the DS download station.  It's just a cart.
