The Nintendo 3DS family (also including XL, 2DS and New variants) supports both 3DS and original DS Download Play. With the exception of volume 3, volumes also included video, and beginning with volume 16, e-books with recipes or also, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland were also available. The series consisted of 19 volumes in North America from spring 2006 to summer 2011, with each volume including up to 11 game demos. The DS Download Station allowed retailers such as GameStop and Best Buy to offer game demos, videos and e-books to customers with a compatible handheld. In both cases, guests download a simplified version of the game from the host, which is stored in the system's RAM (further limited to 256 KB with the GBA) and intended for multiplayer use only. It is the successor to the Single-Pak multiplayer feature from the Game Boy Advance (GBA), available in games such as Mario Kart: Super Circuit. Single-Card Download Play allows one system to host a game, such as Mario Kart DS, while other systems can also join in as guests without a copy of the game. All consoles offer DS Download Play in the system menu. For example, Mario Kart DS only offers a few characters and tracks, while the Metroid Prime Hunters video is merely a 30-second commercial loop.Īll systems from the Nintendo DS family (also including Lite, DSi and DSi XL variants) and the Nintendo 3DS family support DS Download Play. As the original system only features 4 MB of RAM without an expansion cartridge, games and videos have a limited size. DS Download Play obtains data from a host and stores it in a portion of the guest system's RAM.
