  • The Photo Channel was developed by Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development. It was designed to be built into the Wii. The principle foundation for the Photo Channel lied in the Wii's SD card slot. With it, users could upload their pictures and videos they've taken with a camera onto the Wii and view them. During the early stages of development, the director created a demo of how he wanted the channel to be. He showed his work to Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, who liked the special effects that could be added to the photograph. When developing the channel, the creators wanted to make it so that the user could upload an image quickly. Their goal was to make it faster than a PC, which they were able to accomplish.

Interestingly, the Photo Channel was the first channel that, during development, the developers made use of the Wii Remote's pointer function. In retrospect, the developers noted that the pointer controls worked better than they originally anticipated. With the Wii Remote, the player would be able to increase and decrease the size of stamps as well as rotate them simply by performing the appropriate gestures with the Wii Remote. Early on in development, the designers agreed that they would add a multiplayer feature though in order to do so they would have to overcome various obstacles. One of the programmers recalled how when people pressed the button at the same time during multiplayer, the channel would break. In the finalized version this problem is obviously removed.
