Nintendo is holding three 3D photo contests for Nintendo 3DS users in Japan. Part one of the contest starts January 18 and runs until February 18 and is based on the theme, “Interesting when put in 3D!” The winners for part one will be decided on February 24 by the Japanese celebrities and photographers Pe and Pako-san. The prizes are as follows:

First Prize: 1 Nintendo published 3DS game of your choice with special paper slip (10 people)
Second Prize: Mario Nintendo 3DS Holder (130 people)
Third Prize: Custom designed Nintendo Prepaid Point Card (1,000 people throughout all three parts of the contest)

For all three parts of the contest, there will be 30 first place winners, 390 second place winners, and 1,000 third place winners. Part two of the contest is from February 15 to March 13 with the winner being decided on March 23. Part three starts on March 14 and runs until April 17 with the winner being decided on April 27. To enter the contest, players can submit their pictures via the 3DS web browser. After opening the browser, users can click under the favorites tab and visit the Nintendo 3D pictures contest section of the Nintendo 3DS website. From there, users can create a user name and password for the contest page and have a verification token sent to their email. After receiving that, users are then able to log in to the contest page and upload their picture. 

As of this time, the themes for part two and part three of the photo contest have not been decided.

Would be cool if they integrated this into the photo app on the 3DS and make this a permanent contest!
Maybe give away some eShop games prizes etc.
