The Nintendo Fan Network was an interactive software program created by Nintendo in 2007, that gives visitors to T-Mobile Park access to baseball game stats, video, and remote food ordering during Seattle Mariners games via their Nintendo DS, Nintendo DSi, and later, Nintendo 3DS.[1] It was created due to Nintendo's former ownership of the team.[2]
The Fan Network initially required a $5 fee to access, with a $30 discounted rate for 10 baseball games.[3][2] However, it became free in 2008.[4] In 2009, the program was updated with additional ESPN news, columns, closed captioning for PA announcements, and a photo-matching game.[1]
Upon the release of the Nintendo DSi, it was announced that the first 150 visitors to home games would receive a free DSi rental to try out the service.[1] The program also became a permanent DSi application instead of being temporarily downloaded onto the system.[2]
When food and drinks are ordered, progress can be viewed on the system.[2]
The service is now defunct. In addition, the DSi application was removed from the DSi Shop with its discontinuation,[5] and was removed from the Nintendo 3DS eShop at a unknown date.
