There’s an easy way to access the Nintendo Zone without visiting Best Buy. Simply rename your router’s SSID to “attwifi”.

By doing this, you can connect to the Nintendo Zone and watch free Pokemon episodes and download game demos (without a play limit, I believe) straight from your home.

Nicalis CEO Tyrone Rodriguez feels that Nintendo’s efforts on the digital side have improved thanks to the eShop. That’s because “the storefront is heavily feature-driven.”

Rodriguez also spoke up about the Wii Shop Channel.

His full comments can be found below.

“The eShop, I feel, has really turned things around for Nintendo on the digital side because the storefront is heavily feature-driven. Any publisher can still produce whatever it wants, similar to iOS in both regards. However, given the feature-oriented nature, the eShop is quasi-curated without being some lame PR line like, ‘consciously developing a curated portfolio.’ That’s a steaming pile of PR right there, but that’s another story altogether.

“If we look back at WiiWare, that system was broken because it was trying to be fair and feature nothing. WRONG. In the WiiWare system all games were created equal, but life’s not fair and all games are NOT made equal. Some suck hard, particularly on WiiWare. However, that doesn’t matter much in a system like the WiiWare shop because customers aren’t being directed anywhere. The top 20 is the easiest filter and being on the top 20 doesn’t mean a game is good/great, it just means they sell. Frogger, really?

“I’m pretty certain that the number of total downloads (across all games etc) on most platforms typically hovers around the same rough figure. So, say you have 200 total customers to a given service per day, in the case of WiiWare, they’re getting lost in an ocean of blah. Other services, like eShop, have systems in place to control what people get to see and, to me, this is ideal.

“Since the eShop is heavily feature-driven, this not only helps promote titles, it forces publishers and developers to make better games, hopefully. You want to get featured? You better have something good to show, curated or not. Will this change in the future? I have no idea as I’m not Mr. Iwata, but I do know that compared to how we did on WiiWare and DSiWare, eShop has a much better outlook.”

Claustrophobic Setting, Awe-Inspiring 3D and a New Horror Set the Stage for the Most Fear-Inducing Experience on Nintendo 3DSTM

SAN MATEO, Calif. — Feb. 7, 2012 — Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced that Resident Evil® Revelations is now available for the Nintendo 3DS™ hand-held system in North America. Featuring tension building gameplay and limited ammunition supplies, the terror is intense as a menacing new horror takes the fight above and below water on the supposedly abandoned Queen Zenobia cruise ship. Episodic gameplay moves between the hallways of the Queen Zenobia, snow-covered mountaintops, and the floating city of Terragrigia in a story seen through the perspective of four playable characters. Built from the ground up specifically for Nintendo 3DS, Resident Evil Revelations brings the fear to life using the MT Framework® Mobile engine to deliver astounding visuals rendered in three dimensions.

In an all-new storyline that takes place between the events of Resident Evil®4 and Resident Evil®5, Resident Evil Revelations follows branching stories of franchise favorite characters Jill Valentine and Chris Redfield. Chris has disappeared and it’s up to Jill, along with her new partner Parker Luciani, to track down his whereabouts. Their only clue leads them to an abandoned cruise ship in the Mediterranean. Far from being empty, the vessel hides danger around every corner as Jill and Parker explore the confined spaces of the ship, facing frightening horrors that emerge from the darkness. For the first time in the franchise, players will venture underwater in an effort to escape the terrifying creatures roaming the ship. Full of conspiracies and plot twists, Resident Evil Revelations is told in the style of a TV drama as players work to discover the location of Chris Redfield, the source of the T-Virus, and the intentions of a mysterious terrorist organization, Veltro.
