DSi Animation Software Impresses, both in Application Design and Online Integration

Thursday, February 19th, 2009 at 5:57pm by Sean B.

One of the more creative applications for the DSi, Moving Memo Pad, is letting Japanese gamers try their hand in animation. It’s a easy to use frame by frame animation program, but it goes above and beyond the gimmick of a well designed application by integrating with a youtube-like website -  Ungomom Hatena. Animations created on the DS can be uploaded, shared, and added upon by other users – creating a fun application and a diverse and interactive online community.  Videos range from simple camera animations to complicated hand drawn epics.  Check out these samples:

    This is too cool, and the sharing/creative options are pretty awesome to think about.

    I’d actually play a game based on that second animation.

    deepthought:

    ’cause the regular DS does not have internal storage. It’s a downloadable thing.
