It seems Japan has enormous potential and future of 3D TV business with the declaration of Nintendo that it will soon come up with its new 3D TV service in association with Japanese TV networks Fuji Television and Nippon Television. The new service known as ‘Itsu no Ma ni Terebi’ will come in the form of an application that is downloadable for free via the eShop.

‘Itsu no Ma ni Terebi’ has similar naming to Japanese spot pass service. Since, Nintendo has not yet announced an English name for this service, the name ‘Spot TV’ is so far declared unofficially.

Spot TV uses SpotPass to automatically download new 3D television content to Nintendo 3DS. Although the content is free, it is offered with advertisements and will feature original programming from Fuji TV and Nippon TV.

The initial lineup of TV shows includes drama, documentary and sport. Fuji TV has a plan to expand the list of available shows in the near future. However, Nintendo is yet to give the confirmation about the date of commencement of its service in Europe, following deals with Sky and Aardman Animation. One has to keep 3DS system’s Spot pass feature turned on in order to get daily updates from the Spot TV service.
