features a wide variety of content, including new and classic games,
applications and demos. Users can add money to their account balances by
using a credit card or purchasing a Nintendo eShop Card at a retail
store and entering the code from the card. All funds from one card must
be loaded in the Nintendo eShop on either Wii U or the Nintendo 3DS
family of systems, but can be used in either Nintendo eShop if the
