The competition is now closed. We will announce the winner sometime tomorrow. Stay tuned!
To coincide with the release of the painfully addictive Flipnote Studio on DSiWare, we've teamed up with our good friends at Nintendo UK to offer lucky Nintendo Life readers the opportunity to win some great prizes.
To be in with a chance of winning simply create a animation which you think is technically brilliant, very funny or a cunning combination of both and upload it to the official Flipnote Studio website:
Once you have uploaded your clip, simply embed it in the comments section below using the 'Hatena Notation' insert code, like this example:
flipnote:0FE91D40AA3E188F:3E188F_0904223D4264D_001
You simply need to copy-and-paste this code in-between square brackets like so: [xxxxxxxx]
The lucky winners will be chosen by the Nintendo Life team in a democratic fashion much like The X Factor, but with less crying and moaning from the losers.
Here are the amazing prizes which are on offer:
- First place: 10,000 Nintendo points.
- Second place: 6,000 Nintendo points.
- Third place: 3,000 Nintendo points.
This competition is only open to residents of Europe and Australasia - sadly, if you're anywhere else in the world then we can't accept your entries, although you're perfectly entitled to upload an animation regardless. Nintendo Life staff members are not allowed to enter. Multiple entries are allowed, so feel free to have as many goes as you like - the only limit is your imagination!
And possibly your talent (or lack of).
The closing date for this competition is Wednesday 19th August – 9PM GMT.

[flipnote:57CD548031CB6203:CB6203_0908C3F3BB54C_000]
I did the audio!
Not as popular as I thought it would be! Well heres some noise to add to the silence!
[flipnote:57CD548031CB6203:CB6203_090845FB52552_000]
Awww man! I want to win some Nintendo points! It hardly seems fair considering it came to the US before europe.
Here's one I threw together.
My first try:
[flipnote:970EF770CC700A0F:700A0F_0908FF3CB5324_002]
Here's my first one! I hope I've got the code thing right...
[ugomemo:5DE945701E407A4B:407A4B_0908F74B7329C_001] I cant win being an American. Maybe we can get an honorable mention?
here is my first try - "The Car & The Bird"
I don't have a DSi so I unfortunately can't enter. However while on the topic of Nintendo and animation.... here's one I prepared earlier:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TcvCycDzyA
Well? What do you think?
EDIT: Oops! I posted the wrong flipnote! I should've posted my comic strip! Here it is!
This will be the ONLY time I curse my US DSi
My (1st) entry: [flipnote:9FD3B3001E218FEE:218FEE_09092DC262AE5_000]
My first try.
1st entry
[flipnote:983BAD6031CE4264:CE4264_0909675B19902_004]
Here goes:
(I'll make another one as well - I'll try to spell "manoeuvres" properly too)
I've made a good one, but it's a bit rude. Light nudity... should I avoid posting it?
@Gavin No rude animations please... think of the kids!
Yehaaaw!
Heres Mine!
[flipnote:9610F10031D36D0236D02_0909389967734_000]
[flipnote:9610F10031D36D0236D02_0909300528018_000] And Another!
@Dazza
Damn, but it's just so... jiggly! I'd have won for sure
Entry number 2:
Mr. Apple (It taken ages)
[flipnote:9810C0D01E1ADE07:1ADE07_090E8C0DC6C4A_000]
Not too great, but I enjoyed creating it. I hope it gives you a nice, strange, 'WTF' feeling.
I have a question.
I just downloaded it and I dont have any wireless internet for the DSi.
Can I make a video a post the link in here?
Not anywhere near as good as my rude one, but here it is anyway:
Here's my entry! I'll add more, as I make them!
Thanks for telling me about this competition, Dazza! =]
mod edit: link dead - try adding the code again??
Here's my first go at it... I have absolutely no experience within animation, but I'm happy with it!
[flipnote:9A2A6EB01E2DC276:2DC276_0908F613837EA_001]
my newest flipnote
This isn't my awesome rude one, but I guess you could kind of class it as rude, I'm not sure... If it is then feel free to delete this post.
two more entries!! (They're not as popular as my first entry, yet >.<)
@KoopaDude: Winner!
My try:
omg,10000 points!

[flipnote:563C37A031CDF893:CDF893_0908EF861407D_001]

Here is my first Flipnote Animation : ]]!

All the best to those who enter. Here's hoping we can have more contests where us folk in NA can participate. It's still great to see another great competition nonetheless.
And My most popular vid

[flipnote:57CD548031CB6203:CB6203_09095DEF15C34_000]
Wish me luck...
The third installment of The Random Show for your enjoyment:
[flipnote:563C37A031CDF893:CDF893_09096D6BBAD01_001]

I can't enter, since I'm in Canada, but here's an animation I threw together:
[flipnote:58525A10CC727310:727310_0908401C29DD2_002]
Good news! I had just enough time to get episode 4 of The Random Show finished. I hope you all like it. Episode 5 should be out within the next week or so and a new one every couple days from there. Tell me what you think!
[flipnote:563C37A031CDF893:CDF893_0909A65C35833_000]
So, here are my 2 new Flipnotes. The first is "Super Sticky Bros.". Herm. Yup.
[flipnote:9720FB70CC7666B6:7666B6_09098C65282E0_009]
The second flipnote is more... conceptual. You need to know a little bit of the Youtube Poop culture to understand it.
[flipnote:9720FB70CC7666B6:7666B6_090999A3ABFD0_002]
My first creation:
[flipnote:9C4D9AE0AA4036EA:4036EA_09097B100F6A6_000]
Hi everyone, been a long time reader and finally got the courage to join you guys! Hopefully it'll be a great chance to win some points or at least meet some new online buddies for Mario Kart!
I'd love to go through each entry and give my thoughts, but that'd take ages, so from what I did see (in around the first fourty posts), my favourites were the basketball one and the one where the tree appeared. Great work. Anyways, here's my first attempt, entitled "stuntman".
[flipnote:932A1390AA39EE63:39EE63_0909D6AFC45CA_000]
I did another funny flipnote! Here it is!
My second entry and if we can only have one entry my MAIN entry.
[flipnote:983BAD6031CE4264:CE4264_09094119F1A10_016]
5 hours spent on this and it's only 585 frames long.
My second on. OK, here goes...
[flipnote:905065001E1844E0:1844E0_09092660B0A06_001]
My second entry.
[flipnote:9A410330AA4195A5:4195A5_0909E6954E10B_002]
Here I go again ... hope you like it
[flipnote:9F5A61E01E1EC6E5:1EC6E5_0909E37327576_001]
This is my first flipnote I created.
[flipnote:9C57D0A0CC74D30A:74D30A_090940211A5F6_001]
It's pretty simple and I always finished a second one, but I have to do the sound before I can post.
Here's mine.
Two more (simple again):
Had a ton of fun
[flipnote:9DA059D01E1C81B5:1C81B5_090A110C64D54_001]
Here's mine! Great contest idea!
[flipnote:9F58988031C6D4DE:C6D4DE_09099261B4B5A_000]
I'll throw this one too for your entertainment. It's supposed to be a loop.
[flipnote:9DA059D01E1C81B5:1C81B5_090A0AACC0F18_000]
.I cant draw goodHere's my second entry: [flipnote:9E85E35031C89046:C89046_0909D5F3D598E_000]
I swear I posted this earlier...
I guess this is Europe's revenge...

My competition is starting to get tougher.Maybe some heartbreaking animations will give me the lead.
[flipnote:983BAD6031CE4264:CE4264_090A7F2C073EA_000]

Another, getting better. I suppose you don't mind multiple entries : P
My second entry
My only entry, this thing took way more time I thought it would take.
(for some reason, I'm not able to draw a normal Mario...)
I love this app. I"m on it everyday

@Manolito -Hopefully your entries will count even though you missed the deadline by 10 minutes. I liked them.
I have three looping flipnotes:

[flipnote:90D061D01E39FD8D:39FD8D_090A1BD2EEF72_002]
I'm really artistically challenged, so for me, this is good. It's only 5 seconds long but it took me around 8 hours to make it...hopefully you've seen the show '24' before....
[flipnote:9671E110CC726857:726857_090A7BBDEA7CA_011]
The contest is over, but I wanted to share this with you people anyway.
An apple a day beats the baddy aways
BTW the competition is not over as it says 9pm tonight not am
Here are my two entries. (By the way, this is my first comment here, but I read WWW and VCReviews for ages before they merged with NL. Does this make me a lurker?)
Space Battle (inspired by many scrolling shooters):
World of Goo Tribute:
Good luck to everyone else who's entered!
