The Nintendo Channel was available in November | The Nintendo Channel was available in November 2007 in Japan and May 7, 2008 in America. The Nintendo Channel allows people to view video features and information on upcoming games. Demos of Nintendo DS games such as ''Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword'' and ''Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends'' are also available for download through the DS Download Station section. After downloading, the demos will remain in the DS's memory until the system is switched off. Users can also recommend games that they have played for more than an hour by filling out a brief survey that asks whether the player thinks the game is suitable for men or women, casual or hardcore gamers, and single-player or multiplayer play. That information is then aggregated and accessible through the channel's search function, allowing users to search for games that fit their particular tastes. | ||
