FACEBOOK CONNECT PHOTO INTEGRATION WITH NINTENDO DSI LAUNCHES TODAY

Free New Integration Lets Users Upload Photos to Their Facebook Profiles

REDMOND, Wash., Aug. 3, 2009 – Starting today, Nintendo DSi™ owners have even more ways to share their experiences with friends and family. Using an Internet-connected Nintendo DSi system and the Nintendo DSi Camera application, Facebook members can take pictures with either of the system’s two cameras and upload their photos directly to their Facebook profile. This function will be available after 5 p.m. Pacific with a free downloadable system update.

While reviewing pictures they’ve stored in the Nintendo DSi Camera album, which includes photos taken by users and manipulated using the built-in interactive lenses, users can simply tap the Facebook icon on the system’s touch screen to instantly transmit photos to the user’s Facebook profile. The user’s system must be configured to a wireless broadband Internet connection for the transmission of photos.


The onset of August means summer is winding down, but the downloadable action at the Wii™ Shop Channel and Nintendo DSi Shop™ just keeps on heating up. Two new WiiWare™ offerings deliver futuristic robot foes and sultry poker opponents, respectively. On the Virtual Console™, there’s great news for football fans as the arcade classic TECMO BOWL™ makes its way to the Wii system. And on Nintendo DSiWare™, you’ll find a fresh addition to the eye-pleasing, mind-bending Art Style™ game series.

This information comes from Nintendo Power…

“The variety of locations and the lively actions of the people and monsters that reside there should definitely add an element of surprise, and by playing in such an environment, I think that players will naturally become more cheerful. Some familiar Final Fantasy monsters will also be making appearances, at times as a boss-class enemy, so that’s definitely something fans can look forward to.” – Toshiyuki Itahana, character designer/director

We’ve already seen Cactuars and Chocobos (although they aren’t enemies), which are classic Final Fantasy characters. It should be interesting to see what other monsters make appearances in The Crystal Bearers.

Check out this brief exchange between Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles chief producer Masachika Kawata and the game’s other producer, Kentaro Noguchi. The two were discussing the possibility of developing more Resident Evil “Chronicles” games alongside the main RE titles in an interview with Capcom Europe.

KN: It would be up to Cavia, actually. Do you guys still want to create it?

MK: Yes, there are very attractive contents, therefore we would like to continue to work with that.

There isn’t an official confirmation here, but it does look like there is strong interest in continuing with more “Chronicles” games. Would you guys like to see more of those titles on Wii?
