Nintendo has finally confirmed its plans for the Nintendo Network, a formal, branded service for the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.
Unlike Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, which has been focused upon specific
functionalities and concepts, Nintendo establish a platform
where various services are available through the network for their consumers to be connected via Nintendo Network service so that the company can
make comprehensive proposals to consumers.
Nintendo will now allow
personalized accounts for its next home console, which will allow
multiple users per system. Online profiles will no longer be
system-based
Nintendo is
exploring the idea of selling full retail games through the Nintendo 3DS
and Wii U. The company is not willing to say when this program will
start, but it now has the full ability to do so.
Publishers will now be able to offer paid DLC for different games,
starting with Square's Theatrhythm Final Fantasy, which will allow
players to purchase new songs for the rhythm-based game. The title
releases in Japan on February 16.
As a software maker, Nintendo believes that its packaged software
should be sold to their consumers in a form so that they will
know in advance that they can enjoy playing the software they purchased
just as it is, Nintendo believe that their consumers will be able
to feel more secure if the company offer their add-on content as an additional
structure in which those who love the game will be able to enjoy it in a
deeper way for a prolonged play time.
