Nintendo Japan's attempts to turn the DS into more than just a game system already kicked into high gear with the recent announcement of a program that will turn the system into an educational tool for classrooms. Now the company's efforts are going into overdrive with a new program called Nintendo Zone.
Nintendo Zone is a new Wi-Fi service that will offer downloads and other free content to DS, DSLite and DSi owners at various public facilities. The first two examples are nationwide McDonalds restaurants and train stations along one Tokyo train line, the Tsukuba Express.
Both the McDonalds and Tsukuba Nintendo Zones will offer demo downloads and Wi-Fi Connection hot spots for players. Nintendo will also offer other types of downloads, including Jirachi Pokemon data for Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum.
The Tsukuba Express implementation will exclusively offer access to news and television program downloads, as well as full access for DSi users to to the DSi Shop, where they can download DSi Ware games.
