Nintendo Zone was a download service and an extension of the DS Download Station.[1] Users could access content, third-party data, and other services from a hotspot or download station.[2] The service had demos of upcoming and currently available games and may have location-specific content. When the service debuted, users could also connect to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and DSi Shop.[3]

The Nintendo Zone Viewer application allows the Nintendo DSi and 3DS to detect and use the Nintendo Zone service.[3][4] This application has been discontinued worldwide, but all other Nintendo Zone functionality remains.[5]
