systems. Nintendo adds new titles weekly to the Nintendo eShop for the
Wii U system as well as the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo 3DS XL systems,
to the Nintendo DSi™ Shop for the Nintendo DSi system and to the Wii™
Shop Channel for the Wii console.
The Nintendo eShop is a cash-based service that features games,
applications and videos. Users can add money to their account balances
by using a credit card or by purchasing a Nintendo eShop Card at a
retail store and entering the code from the card. All funds from one
card must be loaded in the Nintendo eShop on either Wii U or Nintendo
3DS, but can be used in either Nintendo eShop if the systems are linked
to a single Nintendo Network account.
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 U, Wii, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo 3DS XL and Nintendo
DSi feature parental controls that let adults manage some of the
content their children can access. For more information about this and
