Nintendo Video was a video on demand service for the Nintendo 3DS which streamed hand-picked 3D and 2D video content from external providers. Some of the studios which broadcast content to the service were CollegeHumor, Aardman Animations, Blue Man Group, Channel Frederator Network, and Mondo Media, among others.
The app first launched in July 2011 for Nintendo 3DS owners worldwide, with Nintendo promising new videos to be released weekly for the service. Nintendo Video was officially discontinued in 2014 in most territories, but the service was still available in North America until July 2015. Many of the videos that were featured on Nintendo Video were then carried over to the Nintendo eShop, where they were accessible until its closure in 2023; users can still redownload them provided they have purchased them prior to the closure.
Some Nintendo Video related content have since been released to other video platforms such as YouTube, however some of the content formerly available on the application is no longer available anywhere and is presumed to be lost.
