The Nintendo Zone Box is a special DS developed in collaboration with Nintendo and Mitsumi Electronics. This specialised Nintendo DS can connect to Nintendo's official Nintendo Zone server with the use of a cartridge, and is the middleman for creating a Nintendo Zone setup at a local wifi network. Though at the end of the day, this is just a regular Nintendo DS with a screen missing, and all of its functions can be replicated on a retail DS.

Unit
The main unit is very barebones. It has a DS cartridge and a SD Card slot, both locked away with a tab that can be unlocked by unscrewing it with a Philips screwdriver. The AC port used is a Nintendo DSi charging port, and the only way the unit can be turned on is by plugging in the AC adapter.
2 versions of this Nintendo Zone Box exists, one with ZS on the back, which was shipped to retailers, and one with NDP on the back, which was used in-house by Mitsumi, and was later shipped to the FCC with a different code on the back.
On the back are 2 screwholes for mounting the unit onto a wall. Screws and mounting pieces are included.
FCC Version
A special version, with stickers and marked as "NDPXXXXXXXXX" was sent to the United States Federal Communications Commission.
The main difference from this unit is that it has the ability to read DS(i) development cartridges. This feature was removed from the ZS models.
The development cartridge also has a yellow label that says "NWD". It has been rumoured that this stands for Nintendo Wi-Fi Development.
