For the past several days there were problems on Flipnote Hatena for Nintendo DSi where the buttons on the main menu ("All Flipnotes", "Creator's Room", etc.) would not display correctly, or sometimes not display at all.
This problem was fixed on August 9, 2011 and was caused by an error with some of our new servers.
If you are still experiencing this problem, please turn off the power of your Nintendo DSi and attempt to connect to Flipnote Hatena again.
In addition, access has also been very slow for some users when connecting to their Creator's Room for the past several days. We have now optimized and increased the number of servers used for these functions, and this problem should now be fixed.
Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience these problems may have caused. We look forward to your continued enjoyment of Hatena's online services.
