Nintendo's new online service that launched at the same time as Mario Kart DS. The idea is great, Nintendo games online. The execution of friends is done worse in Mario Kart DS than it is in a third party game, Tony Hawk's American Sk8tland.
Proof that Nintendo means well but dropped the freaking ball:
To play someone specific online requires the exchange of friend codes. A process that can't be done in game. So if I play a stranger, have a good match, and want to add him to my friend list I can't.
Disconnecting results in no penalty to the disconnecting player.

Get the Awesome Nintendo Facts mug.Nintendo's successor to the Wii-U. Do not be fooled, it does not make a "Switch" sound, but rather a snap. It would look really dumb if it was called the Nintendo Snap though, hence "Switch".
Jim: Bob, look at this trailer for the Nintendo Switch!
Bob: Dude, I'm so psyched!
Karl: But guys that's a snap sound...
Jim: SHUDDUP KARL NOBODY ASKED FOR YOUR OPINION!
