E3: Upload DSi photos to Facebook News

DS News by Tom Bramwell

2 June, 2009

Nintendo has announced that you will be able to upload photographs directly from your Nintendo DSi to Facebook starting this summer.

It was one of a number of minor DSi announcements during the platform holder's E3 conference, including news that Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again! is out via the DSi Shop "towards the end of the year" for Europe. User-generated content is key for that.

We also got to see a bit of Flip Notes Studio, which is out in the US this summer, with a similar emphasis on UGC, and then there's WarioWare DIY, which will let you design games from scratch. "We believe this is as close to essential game design as any game has ever come," said Nintendo of America's Cammie Dunaway.

Isn't it a 0.3MP camera? Great, even more crappy photos clogging up Facebook.

Megapixels are overrated. Since Facebook reduces everything to about 800x800 anyway, if the shots are clear (and the DSi camera can produce decent shots) it won't matter to people. Also they can doodle and play with their pictures with the camera's fun functions before uploading.
