Nintendo has joined forces with McDonald’s to offer free wireless internet access in the US for its DS handheld games console.

 

The service means McDonald’s customers will be able to play selected DS titles against other gamers around the globe. McDonald’s already offers wireless internet access in many US restaurants, but charges a fee.

 

 The access points are being supplied by US firm Wayport, which will receive an undisclosed sum from Nintendo.

 

 "This agreement with Wayport will bring countless people together to play games in a single, simultaneous wireless community," said Reggie Fils-Aime, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of sales and marketing.
