Nintendo Dsi

Features

The DSi supports external storage, which enhances its multimedia capabilities over previous models; pictures, downloaded software and AAC audio may be saved to SD cards. The built-in "Nintendo DSi Sound" audio player allows for voice recording and music playback. Supported file formats include AAC, .mp4, .m4a, and .3GP; MP3 files are not supported. While audio is playing, users may adjust pitch and playback, and add filters. Sound files may be listened to even when the DSi is shut. Users may save and modify up to eighteen ten-second sound clips from voice recordings (recorded via the internal microphone), and then apply them to songs. The console also features the "Nintendo DSi Camera" software, which gives users ten tools (called "lenses") for modifying images. The software can be used on pictures and live video taken with the DSi camera, and on pictures imported from a SD card. Photographs taken with the DSi can be sent to the Wii's Photo Channel, and, for DSi consoles with the 1.4 firmware update or greater, to the social networking website Facebook.

The Nintendo DSi console can connect to the Internet through its built-in 802.11b/g Wi-Fi, or through a Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Connector; both methods give users access to the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection.  Internet browsing, photo sharing and Nintendo DS cartridge software, however, are region-free. The DSi supports WEP, WPA (AES/TKIP) and WPA2 (AES/TKIP) wireless encryption; the latter two may only be used by DS games where they are built-in, as the DS and DS Lite did not support these encryption types.service.
