Nintendo has teamed up with 3G data carrier DoCoMo and lauched a tethering service for the Nintendo 3DS.
The application, which is called Easy Tethering for Nintendo 3DS, can be exclusively used on DoCoMo supported Android devices. Seven devices are confirmed to be compatible and the list will be expanded over time. These devices will be available in the next couple of months; the first one to make use of this application is the Samsung Galaxy S5, which is in stores now in Japan.
Nintendo and DoCoMo will make a survey available from July until the end of September. By filling in said survey, players will be treated to a Virtual Console game free of charge, though full details on this have not been released.
