The web player is a flash player based one. DS or 3DS does not support it as far as I know.
The please refresh message is displayed as a "fallback" in case it can't load the flash player object.
If there is no app that plays internet radio on the nintendo console, then I doubt you can get it to work.
I do not have any DS or 3DS so I can't really test it.
I think the only nintendo console that can work with it is the Wii (original one).
Best option is just to use Tune In app if you own a Android or IOS device. 3DS can't do audio streaming of live radios.... one would imagine that the PS Vita is more capable of it if someone added an app support for it.
I agree, it would be more ideal to use the phone for listening while moving around away from the computer, but I was looking for an alternative to my smart phone.
Fair enough if it doesn't work though. There is no flash support on a 3DS console still I don't think which may be the root of the problem if the webplayer is flash based.
Thanks for answering my query though. I will have a think about what other options I might have.
Edit: Sorry, just to add, I have a Lite and a 3DS. I looked on the shop for a radio app on the 3DS and there does not seem to be one available. I won't be buying a PS Vita solely for this but I'm sure others who already own one will find the idea helpful.
It might work with an HTML5 based player, if the 3DS web browser supports it (it has a web browser, right?).
But we can't have an html5 player the way the radio is setup at the moment.
It will be done in the future

It was a fun journey and thank you for having me.
