DS Download Play

DS Download Play is a feature of the Nintendo DS family of consoles, also available for the Nintendo 3DS family. The feature allows the player to download temporary copies of software wirelessly for free, and without a Game Card. These can include demos, smaller multiplayer versions of the game, tools like Poké Transfer and exclusive games like PokéPark: Fishing Rally DS. The software disappears after the console is powered off, so it must be download again from the original source to play it in multiple sessions.

There are a variety of different means the software can be distributed, including via another retail game that includes a demo, a DS Download Station, or the Wii Nintendo Channel.
