Guess what kind of game uses the new DS camera

If you guessed any kind of game at all, sorry. If you correctly identified that as a trick question, then you win at DS fandom. That's right, the DS Lite is getting an official camera peripheral, and the first piece of software to use it is Otona no DS Kao Training (Adults' DS Face Training.) In fact, the camera is called the Facening Scan, leaving no question as to its intended use.What's Facening, you may ask? Well, it's a regimen of facial stretching designed to reduce wrinkles and sagging, and to make your face appear smaller.
The camera is included with the software, as is a DS Lite stand. You bring your own ridiculous face-- you probably already got your first lesson in Facening when you read about this piece of software!

I'll either import just for the camera and stand or wait it out on eBay.

i LOL'd when I got to the end, realizing I was doing the "you've GOT to be kidding me" raised eyebrow thing. Damn you, can you SEE ME. My webcam is off, I think....

Would this work with my painted DSPhat? I'm not buying a DSLite, but am interested in a GameBoy Camara 2 :P

The cartridge looks too short for a Phat. And don't buy this expecting a Game Boy Camera.

I'm definitely not gonna buy Face Training, JC :P
Now, I wonder if the Homebrew scene can whip something up using a Slot 1 cartridge...

...does anyone realize that the same effect can be acheived with a little mirror??

The Facening?
I'll get right on that after I finish Chess 2: The Chessining.

SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP!
I am so fucking buying this, even if it does just do this anti-wrinkling regiment
Imagine the homebrew possibilities!

Sweet, now I don't need to upgrade to a cameraphone!
