      Nintendo stole the “network” name!

    • http://www.youtube.com/user/Sledx2Gaming?feature=mhee sam3ds

      Just to let everyone know, when you go online on mario kart 7, it says ‘connecting to Nintendo Network’

    • Mike S

      In North America it says “connecting to the internet”

    • Maroof

      @sam3ds: Yup, that’s true, it says in European Mario Kart 7… but I don’t understand one thing. Whi didn’t Nintendo put ‘that’ ‘Nintendo Network’ on the Mario Kart 7 box art?

    • http://www.youtube.com/user/Sledx2Gaming?feature=mhee sam3ds

      mabey they just didnt make the logo yet, or the logo might be for 3rd parties.

    • Belinni

      Perhaps they hadn’t created the concept at the time. Obviously Mario Kart 7 had online but perhaps Nintendo Network will be the logo they’ll use to show that certain games will, in fact, have DLC content soon.

      Or perhaps they really are changing things and this’ll be the way data can be shared between the 3DS and the Wii U.

    I would like to see some more direct version of communication with friends online. Swapnote is great, but just typing out some message to friends does seem easier sometimes, especially when you want to do something online together.

  • tkdkbw

    My Guess is Nintendo Network is the system used to download the paid content

    • Dae

      +1.
      That’s what I was thinking. I just hope that the DLC will be worth it though.

    • Ttimer

      Lol me 2 :DKH

      and i hope there could be content for Super Smash Bros U……like more add-on characters, stages, ect.

      KH!!!!!!!:DKH

    • BR!4N

      I thought it would be on the eShop.

  • given

    Hopefully a better online friend system with actual message indications on the main ui and friend invites. Message notifications n such.

  • Dae

    I like your shirt. c:<3

  • Mike S

    I’m being completely serious, THIS GUY MADE A PORTABLE GAMECUBE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBf4Cyfv-EI&feature=related He plays SmashBros. Melee on it and I think it’s a good way to see how Smash Bros. can look on a handheld :)

    • Mike S

      no your family isnt. your just trying to get Free money to buy a 3DS.

    • epicgameturtle

      ^ If this statement is true, you better hurry and get one! Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition is going to stop being free soon!

    • http://www.youtube.com/user/Pokeneon7 Pokeneon7

      If your family was running out of money, you wouldn’t have internet.

      Nice try, kid.

    • Belinni

      Even if he used the library to get free internet there wouldn’t be a reason to post that comment on a 3DS blog. From what I’ve seen most of us here are strapped for cash too.

  • Matthias

    If you play Mario Kart 7 Online Multiplayer it says “Connecting to Nintendo Network”, so it is the online service for 3DS.

  • Mathew

    In North America, it says “Connecting to the Internet”. What is the meaning of this?

    • Belinni

      It means you are connecting to the internet.

  • epicgameturtle

    I like the camera angle much better here, keep up the good work David and as always SMELLS LIKE CHERRIES!!!

    • http://www.youtube.com/user/Pokeneon7 Pokeneon7

      Dude, your making yourself look really gay right now. lol

  • epicgameturtle

    I hope Nintendo Network is like XBL or PSN so I can make 1 username and use it to get achievements and awards by playing games! I also hope there will be a suspend app that you can chat with friends. That would definitely SMELL LIKE CHERRIES!!!

    • Waseem Khalil

      I think Nintendo will use your main Mii…

  • Luciano Fran

    David I know this is off topic but,if you ever hear news about the Conduit for the 3ds please post it Im really looking forward in playing it . Thks

    • Belinni

      I’m pretty sure there was an article about The Conduit back when this blog first started. I think it mentioned that the guys behind The Conduit were able to port the first game to the 3DS without any trouble so they might make another one just for the 3DS.

    I hope we don’t have to pay for online, cuz i don’t even have enough money to buy a 3DS game, since I bought the system

  • koops3

    Considering Mario Kart uses Nintendo Network, I doubt it, but if so I will not own another Nintendo device again and throw my old ones in the trash and love Sony forever.

  • Alex

    Does anyone think that this is Nintendo’s online service for the Wii U? The Wii U comes out this year and Nintendo did say that they will have a very sophisticated online service. Maybe they are rebranding their service for the so that it could coincide with the Wii U.

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/SlimNintendo?feature=mhee SlimNintendo

    I hope we get achievements like the Xbox 360! They also need to get Call of Duty on it.

  • supermariofan

    I find it hard to belive that your entire “family” is losing money
