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 games weekly to the
Nintendo eShop on the Wii U console and the Nintendo 3DS family of
systems, the Nintendo DSi™ Shop for the Nintendo DSi system and the
Wii™ Shop Channel for the Wii console.
The Nintendo eShop is a cash-based service that features a
wide variety of content, including new and classic games, applications
and demos. Users can add money to their account balances by using a
credit card or 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 the Nintendo 3DS family of
systems, 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.
Remember that Wii U, Wii, Nintendo 3DS, Nintendo 3DS XL,
