Nintendo Network for Nintendo Wii U and 3DS

You probably already heard of this but Nintendo is getting the Nintendo Network this year for Wii U and 3DS. And that... is apparently mimicking XBox Live which Sony has been doing for sometime themselves... yeah well better late than never.

Plus sides?
- Full 3DS games for sale
Means you don't have to run down to the nearest well sticked Target or Gamestop to get 3DS games... but you'll probably have to snap up $50 VISA Gift Cards just for one $40-$50 gzme... and then you'll need to drop coin on a bigger SD card of 8GB or higher.

I'm already researching that, so stay tuned for that once I find an affordable 8GB or 16GB SD card for your 3DS.

- Premium DLC including Pay for Download (PFDLC) content. Both of which is already on its way, starting with free downloadable demos and paid dlc with Theatrhythm Final Fantasy (Japan) and Fire Emblem 3DS.

- The end of Friend Codes
That doesn't bode well for the original DS by the way... does this mean the DS to DSi's days are numbered? Who can say. But if you are not a fan of Friend Codes its good news for you and the future of online multiplayer gaming on the 3DS.

Well more on that as bews comes in, stay tuned.
