Posted on 3 years ago by Bryce(@brodee922) in General Nintendo, News, Screenshots, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo has announced a new partnership with Fujifilm that will give the Switch the ability to print images wirelessly. This is being made possible by Fujifilm’s wireless printer instax mini Link and a new app that will be released on April 30, 2021.
This app will be capable of scanning screenshots from the Switch via QR code (similar to the sharing function currently on the Switch) and sending them directly to the printer for printing. Features in this app include adding borders from 3 Nintendo games (Super Mario, Animal Crossing: New Horizons, and New Pokemon Snap), and putting different effects on images either from the Switch or a phone.
