DGamer (Disney Gamer) was an online game and social network service developed by Disney for use with Nintendo DS games. DGamer was accessible via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection or computer via the DGamer Channel on Disney.com. The service was implemented by Fall Line Studios and Disney Interactive Studios.[1] It allowed users to create avatars, communicate with other users, access leaderboards, and track in-game honors. Completion of honors would unlock additional items for avatar customization.[2]
Communication through the service was offered through several modes. Speed Chat mandated users "communicate using a predetermined list of words and phrases", Speed Chat Plus which allowed "free-form typing" with a filter for expletives and sexually suggestive language, and Open Chat, which required an external exchange of "friend codes".[3]
The service launched in North America on May 15, 2008, coinciding with the release of the DS version of The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian.[4] DGamer's Wi-Fi connections were retired on March 15, 2013. It can still be used via local wireless connections, but is no longer able to connect to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service.[5]
