In
addition to video games available at retail stores, Nintendo also
offers a variety of content that people can download directly to their
systems. Nintendo adds new titles to the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo
3DS™ system, to the Nintendo DSi™ Shop for the Nintendo DSi system and
to the Wii™ Shop Channel for the Wii console at 9 a.m. Pacific time on
Thursdays.
The Nintendo eShop is a cash-based service and
features games, applications and videos in both 2D and 3D. Users can add
money to their virtual wallets using a credit card or by purchasing a
Nintendo 3DS Prepaid Card at a retail store and entering the code from
the card.
The Wii Shop Channel offers games and applications
and uses Wii Points™, which can be purchased via the Wii Shop Channel.
The Nintendo DSi Shop offers games and applications and uses Nintendo
DSi Points™, which can be purchased in the Nintendo DSi Shop. A Wii
Points Card™ and Nintendo DSi Points Card™ can be purchased at retail
locations. All points from one card must be redeemed in either the Wii
Shop Channel or the Nintendo DSi Shop, respectively. They are not
transferable and cannot be divided between the two systems.
Remember that Wii, Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo DSi
feature parental controls that let adults manage some of the content
their children can access. For more information about this and other
features, visit http://www.nintendo.com/wii, http://www.nintendo.com/3ds or http://www.nintendo.com/ds/systems/dsi. |
