        In addition to video games available at retail stores, Nintendo also

        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,
