Until June 28th, Japanese Nintendo DS owners will be able to log on to McDonald's' free Wi-Fi network and find and download what's on the menu, with a full data table of each item's nutritional facts, which is only available at the twenty-one McDonald's locations across Tokyo. This is part of McDonald's Japan's marketing campaign, and Nintendo's partnership with NTT, Japan's largest telecommunications company.

This is currently yet another Japan-exclusive usage of the DS.

These DS partnerships are a conspiracy I tell you....Soon Nintendo will partner up with so many major companies that they will TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!!!

Either that or the DS will become so extremely popular that Nintendo will have enormous amouts of success...once this comes to North America that is.
