Nintendo DS Getting Camera and Face Training Game

Posted in Nintendo, Nintendo DS by Darrin Olson on July 4th, 2007

Nintendo DS is getting a DS Camera add-on and an associated game using the DS CameraIt looks as if Nintendo will soon be coming out with an add-on camera that fits on the Nintendo DS, along with a little stand that holds the DS upright sideways.

Along with the DS Camera, Nintendo is also releasing an associated game that makes use of the it, called Face Training. The face training game shows example pictures and instructions of different “faces” to make, which you are to mimic and see yourself in the second screen by use of the DS camera on the handheld game. While people like Jim Carey have made quite a lucrative living by perfecting odd facial expressions, the idea of this Face Training game is to make the skin more elastic and possibly to strengthen muscles to make it prettier, according to “facening” experts like Fumiko Inudo who’s face is depicted in the game.

The DS camera and game are expected to ship August 2nd for 4800 yen (about $40 dollars).
