Whatever fighters fans create stays in the system. Unfortunately, players canвЂ™t trade fighters online or via ad hoc mode.

Naturally, this game would be perfect on the bigger Nintendo DSi XL. The player on the right will use the face buttons and right trigger. The player on the left side will use the D-pad and the left trigger to punch and kick. The fighting system is so simple that players can each take one side of the hand-held and use it to control the fighters. Players donвЂ™t connect via wireless and duke it out. Surprisingly, the multiplayer mode uses just one Nintendo DSi. Photo Dojo is more of a casual fighter at heart. There isnвЂ™t really any thing as complicated as throwing out hadoken motions. They can toss fireballs by holding back and the attack button or they can perform a special move by pressing down and the attack buton. While fighting in this mode, all the player moves are still available. As seen from the left, the background can be any picture including a manipulated images. They come regularly in waves and players have to defeat an army of them amid a background of their choosing. In the single-player mode, Photo Dojo essentialy turns into a beat-вЂ™em up populated by other fighters whom the player creates. Once thatвЂ™s finished, IвЂ™d have to pick from four different fighting styles and itвЂ™d be game on. If I were to fight my dog in the game, IвЂ™d have to stand my dog up in different poses and I would have to record her barking. There are also auxiliary images for fireballs and other special moves. Afterward, it then asks them to provide the sound effects. Photo Dojo asks players to be photographed in specific poses. This is the first game in a long while that capitalizes on the systemвЂ™s camera and microphone.Д¬reating a character is pretty easy and takes a few minutes provided you have a friend. There are no characters because everything in the game is player-created from the sound effects to the images. First off, when starting the game, the opening screen is empty. I had a chance to play the title last week and I saw the potential for a fun little diversion with Nintendo DSi. All I have to do is fire up a DSiWare title called Photo Dojo and IвЂ™m halfway there. I donвЂ™t have to spend days crafting a polygon model of my pet or put boxing gloves on its paws.
