Another year, another visit to Safeco Field, home of the Seattle Mariners, to check out the Nintendo Fan Network.
This year I decided to film a bit about my experience with the Nintendo Fan Network along with my overall experience of the game and activities therein.
A few items of note:
- Setting up an account was quick, easy, and simple with the caveat of the fact that if you enter in credit card information, it’s being sent out via 802.11b. Since I am not a security expert, I cannot comment on how safe this is in reality or what measures have been taken to encrypt the information sent.
- The Nintendo Fan Network seemed to be extremely quick in response to queries this year.
- Two new games were marked as new, however I did not sample them.
- Last year I remember there being two booths available in Safeco Field, though this could be an error on my part.
- Nintendo DS units are still available for rental purposes during the baseball game.
- Nintendo DS, DSi, and DSi XL models were available to purchase at the booth, including the special edition Seattle Mariners DS.
