Photo Dojo DX was a work-in-progress/tech demo created by Nintendo as a follow-up to their DSiWare game named Photo Dojo. The game was discovered on a Nintendo 3DS prototype only used by Nintendo.

(Re)discovery

The game was first revealed when a user by the name of Voodooween showed off a Nintendo 3DS "Demo Unit" from 2010 containing several prototypes and tech demos. One of those was listed as "Photo Dojo DX", as he could describe it as a 'fully playable but short demo, only 1 minute to be exact'.

He also noted that the Special Attack combo has been listed as "????" in the controls list, and that you can take photos both from the front and the back.

At long last, he stated that he will try to hardmod the demo unit to make a NAND dump, but nothing has been heard since.

Main differences

Photo Dojo DX offers a lot of new features, as if the game was reworked to be something else.

• A photo from your face must be taken from 45 degrees instead of being 2D.
• The game does not use your full body, rather only your face in an unfinished/placeholder suit.
• You can now save up to 9 fighters instead of 8.
• The Spin Kick, the Sweep the Wave Blast and the Chain Attack are new moves.
• You cannot longer press Start to pause the game. You have to press Pause on the touch screen.
