Free Flipnote Studio now available for Nintendo DSi photo

Nintendo's free Flipnote Studio application for Nintendo DSi has snuck its way onto the Nintendo DSi Shop today. That's right, if you have a DSi and a wireless Internet connection, you can get it right now. So go ahead and do that. 

If you don't know what it is, Flipnote Studio let's you draw and then animated your own images, add sound, and even import photos (as black and white images) from the DSi Camera album. Users registered at the Flipnote Hatena Web site can then upload and share their creations. 

We expect lots and lots of Mr. Destructoid related stuff to appear on that Web site by Friday. That is your task. You have been put on assignment. Go forth; make us proud.

Looking at the stuff on the front page I am discouraged cause I know I can't draw anything better than crudely drawn penises.

I'd start it up, but no wi-fi at the moment, and I have an essay to finish. Hopefully I'll get it soon and put up some Destructoid stuff. :D

I'd give it a shot, but the PAL version isn't up for download yet...

A DSi purchase gets more tempting all the time. I hope the service gets more things in this vein of games and non-games that take advantage of the hardware.

It's surprisingly easy to create stuff. The lightbox function really helps re-sketching frames. I drew this in half an hour while watching TV.

I would love to say "OMG DOWNLOADING ASAP" but I still don't have a DSi. Which looks sexier for the matte black color. No more annoying fingerprints.

I've yet to use the 1000 Nintendo points I got for free with the DSi and I'm still not! This being free is awesome!

Already downloaded it. Already made a few vids. It's pure, condensed love, man. Check out the vids here:

Looks neat, but in the interest of compatibility, I can't download it. Or anything, for that matter. :(

@Blue Odeyssey: You don't need to make this stuff animated. Just take notes and save them with a single page.

Whatt im trying to get at is that im looking for a program that can take notes and then be transferred to another device

I got this when I got home, and I am surprised at how robust it is. I love this app, finally worth having DSi, IMO.

Surely a great App for the DSi... AND FREE!

Best thing about the DSi so far.

I can believe that flipnote animations can have sound as well. So far, the quality has been pretty hi. A bunch have actually made me lol.

This is amazing. I can't believe Nintendo charges for so much crap on the DSi and then the best thing they release is free. I expect to have fun with this for years.

I got this upon getting the email from Nintendo, and honestly, if they keep pushing out stuff like this, it will have completely justified my purchase of the DSi. I love this thing.
