+ | A launch game for the 64DD. Similar in many ways to //[[game:Mario Paint]]//: users could draw or work on in-built images, create small animations, and play a minigame similar to //[[game:mario_paint#Gnat Attack]]//. Differences include a //[[game:Pokémon Snap]]//-like mode and the ability to import images from the [[hardware:game_boy#Game Boy Camera]] and standard video source (for example VHS) via the [[hardware:n64#capture_cartridge|N64 Capture Cart.]] It was available bundled with or without the [[hardware:n64#mouse|N64 mouse]], which were never sold seperately((http://nintendo.wikia.com/wiki/Nintendo_64_Mouse)). | ||
