Disney launches DGamer with Prince Caspian DS

Kotaku is reporting that Disney is launching the DGamer feature with the Nintendo DS version of The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian. This makes is possible to put yourself into the land of Narnia, at least virtually. Really cool concept, although it is not confirmed that you’ll be able to do that in the DS version of the game. From Kotaku:

Hoping to get the jump on any attempt from Nintendo to bring features made popular on the Wii and Xbox 360, Disney is adding a feature called DGamer to future Nintendo DS titles. The first game to support the DGamer service will be The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian bringing the Disney equivalent of Miis, Achievements (called “Honors”) and an online Pictochat-esque instant messaging app.

The DGamer service will integrate with with Disney’s already established online programs at Disney.com and other owned properties, allowing for a unified sign-on requiring only a PIN to check in. The avatar customization we saw at GDC allows for basic clothing choices and color options, in addition to Mii-style character editing. Well-known Disney costumes, such as a Buzz Lightyear get up, will also be available when unlocked.
