Nintendo has announced that its Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service has reached two milestones within days of one another. The service launched in November 2005 and has now seen more than five million unique Nintendo DS owners log on, who have together played in more than 200 million game sessions.
“Nintendo DS gamers globally use Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection as an easy, fun place to find fellow players, all without paying anything extra for the service,” explains Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime. “The milestones represent millions of hours of fun and camaraderie despite miles between players.“
Worldwide, around 65 games can be played online through Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, the most popular being Animal Crossing: Wild World, Mario Kart DS, Metroid Prime Hunters, Pokemon Diamond and Pokemon Pearl.
