How to Upload Nintendo DSi Pictures to Facebook

The Nintendo DSi and its counterpart, the Nintendo DSi XL, are revised versions of the earlier Nintendo DS and Nintendo DS Lite. Among the new features of the Nintendo DSi is a pair of digital cameras that are used for certain games, or they can be used to take pictures and store them on the console or an SD memory card. With the release of system update 1.4, DSi owners can upload pictures directly from their console to Facebook using the device's Wi-Fi capabilities.
