I dont know if anyones seen this, but now(or soon) you will be able to learn to draw with the Nintendo DS.

Theres no reviews yet I dont suppose there ever will be, (it aint a game I aint touching it).

Do you think it may be lying or exaggerating a bit, could you learn to draw with it? And even if you did would you not be stuck, only able to draw on the tiny DS, it being non transferable to other media. Whats everyones opinion on it?

I need to know because a friend maybe wants to buy it.

Anyone can learn to draw using any form of media if they invested the time to practice.

So yes you can learn to draw on the DS if you wanted to.

People learning to draw, especially children, should be using traditional media. There's no other way tbh.

People have been using their ds as a drawing tool for years now.

They were made from life, still they're very rough, yet you can get really detailed image, as Munin Raven does here

I aint sure that you need this art course, if you have nintendo ds, just get "colors!" program and start learning it. "Colors!" is pretty intuitive and gui is pretty much photoshop like.

Calabi

I'd have to get a homebrew ds cart thing though wouldnt I? I think they've been banned.
