If you’re in a Boingo-equipped airport this holiday, be sure to whip out your Nintendo 3DS for some hot head-to-head gaming. The Wi-Fi provider will be free to 3DS users on December 8 and


allow them to download games and videos and access the Nintendo Zone (spoooky) via Wi-Fi. The 3DS already gets free Wi-Fi at various locations including AT&T hotspots, Best Buy, and


Simon Malls. You can use the 3DS to browse the Internet using the built-in browser but I wouldn’t depend on it for mission-critical activities. It is, however, a nice feature if you’re


thinking of downloading a game during a layover or need to update your Pokedex. The free service partnership will last indefinitely past the holidays.
