Nintendo Wii Media | Smash Update: PictoChat Joins the Brawl

22.10.2007

Nintendo starts the week in style with a bizarre update on the Smash Bros. Dojo revealing a PictoChat themed level for one of the most random battle ideas ever!

There are only a few nonsense stages in the only "slightly" nonsensical Smash. But there isn't any stage more nonsensical than this.

PictoChat?! What is THIS?!

It's a fun little sketch-and-chat software with wireless functionality that's built into the Nintendo DS!

If you wait a bit, terrain gets drawn in with a few stylus strokes!

Of course, you can climb up on the doodles.

There may be things you want to ride on moving around.

The doodles that appear will disappear after a while, and then something else will get drawn.

Oh, and on this stage, you'll also be able to enjoy Mii Channel music and Wii Shop Channel music, too.

Be sure to stick with C3 for updates...

It would have cool if you actually made the level in pictochat using the DS then transferring it into the game. But still wierd. reminds me of Mr game & watch.

This is confusing me. It is implying we can actually use our DS to draw things into the environment on screen? Or is it just saying every now and then a big stylus will come and draw something for us...

Brilliant but yeah if you could transfer your own designs via the DS that would be sweet, still this looks cool.

I think this is cooler then the game and watch stage. I hope the drawings are randomized and not in a preset order.

Sweet Smilie

On a side note I really really hope they include a custom level editor that would allow you to create levels based on existing environments

Smilie Smilie Smilie Smilie so true.
