DSi to become slightly social

E3 2009: Upload pictures from your DSi to Facebook

DSi

Cammy Dunaway got the unenviable task of going up on stage a few minutes ago at E3 to try and talk up a couple of new DSi features coming your way.

One of the things Nintendo tried to sell its hardware update on was the addition of two cameras, but so far no one's really found a use for them.

They might not be great for gaming, but Nintendo's made a wise move to add something simple and effective - Facebook connectivity.

Soon, you'll be able to send your DSi photos directly to the social networking site, and given that you've got a stylus, touchscreen and built-in photo 'editing' software, there'll be nothing to stop you drawing glasses and a moustache on your friends before uploading.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
