Pixel Paint ($3.99), a pixel painting app (duh) comes out today in Wii U NA eShop. Since the game is made by a fellow GAFFER (Sir_Vival) and their trailer for the game is both cute and funny. I just had to share this.

From my experience, people love to create drawling on the Wii U Miiverse community, this just might be the perfect addition for those that are creative. Curious to see what our more creative members here might create with it.

---

They've mentioned in the Nintendo DL thread that to export you use Miiverse, but a future patch will make it done via SD card too.

Will be coming to Europe in early 2015 according to the developer.

Great, best wishes to the fellow Gaffer!

alienator · Oct 30, 2014

When will this be available in Europa? 2017?

Askherserenity · Oct 30, 2014

That's a pretty great trailer. Congratulations on the game!

will support- my nephew will love this

Sir_Vival · Oct 30, 2014

Thanks for the thread! I'm thinking it'll be available in Europe in early (January?) 2015. Sorry about the delay to other regions, I just didn't have the funds to hire translators.

jblank83 · Oct 30, 2014

Looks great

Clefargle · Oct 30, 2014

Great job viva!

Orakio Rob · Oct 30, 2014

I'm a terrible artist, but it's easier to draw pixel art... I'll get it!

Nice trailer! Hope the game is a success!

patrickthehedgehog · Oct 30, 2014

Want!

Exile20 · Oct 30, 2014

First pixel art so far on miiverse.

Love it! I can't explain how excited I am to see what people make. The Art Academy communities/gaf threads are awesome to look at.

Zero² · Oct 30, 2014

Too bad I suck at drawing, who knows?

Alric · Oct 30, 2014

Can you make animations with this at all?

No, sorry. I decided not to focus on that as they couldn't be posted to Miiverse, exporting would be harder, etc.

HyperHip · Oct 30, 2014

Thanks for the heads up, definitely gonna purchase this!

schlew · Oct 30, 2014

Have any Canadians seen Pixel Paint on the Wii U eShop? I can't find it, it's not under the new releases, and searches yield nothing.

I've also noticed that the eShop link in the community leads to an error page.

Well shit I have to buy this now out of obligation to my state. God fucking damn it.

Xenthar · Oct 30, 2014

That trailer was epic lol. I'm supporting this.

VariantX · Oct 30, 2014

if I had a Wii U right now, id purchase just because of that ad alone

Cody_D165 · Oct 30, 2014

This seems like a really cool app! I can't wait to see what Miiverse comes up with.

Zen_Arcade · Oct 30, 2014

I think I might buy this even though I'm awful at pixel art. The price is good and the trailer was great.

I wonder if those were the developers in the commercial. The really sold the infomercial feel.

freethoughtbubble · Oct 30, 2014

So bought come the weekend. Love that ad too!

Meesh · Oct 30, 2014

The guy narrating the video sounds just like Seinfeld. All I kept thinking was,"it's a pixel art game, about nothing. What's up with that?" Seriously though, Gaffer made so I'm buying, love Art Academy so I'm down with this. I'll pick up my copy at the jerk store today!!

Just curious; does Nintendo demand that it gets translated to FIGS and is it expensive/difficult to release it in English first and then patch in other languages?

The Boat · Oct 30, 2014

Great ad! Is this coming out in Europe? I'm not exactly an artist, but I'd love to try this.
EDIT: Already answered oops

PotionBleue · Oct 30, 2014

unlike other titles on the eShop lmao

Ultimate_Trainer · Oct 30, 2014

The actors and narrator on C movie tier bad, but I live it. Go Minnesota? I would buy when I get my WII U

botty · Oct 30, 2014

This seems like a bit of a disaster. The video didn't really show me anything enticingand that's coming from someone who purchased The Letter. Hopefully the developer puts some interesting art up on Miiverse cause it's mostly just recreations so far.

I thought he said probably made in Minnesota, it was funnier when I misheard it

Good job, Sir_Vival. Looks pretty good. As bad an artist as I am, I might give this a try.

GulAtiCa making a better job of selling indies on WIIU than Nintendo

It is up to the creator. You can buy it, download and create something new and creative. How does the fact that others are doing recreations stop you?

Lijik · Oct 31, 2014

Definitely going to pick this up tonight, thanks for sharing!

ZSaberLink · Oct 31, 2014

Looks cool. Good luck with the app!

shaki123 · Oct 31, 2014

Is this coming tom Europe?

CALS · Oct 31, 2014

Looks awesome.

You can't release in whatever country if there's a required translation for it. Not sure if I should go into it more than that, but there are some odd facets to it.

No extra cost to me (from Nintendo), no. They don't charge anything for lotcheck and all that, just one fee for the devkit.

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone. Here are my two favorites from today:

I think we'll see more people both branch out in to their own stuff and larger canvas sizes/more detail as they learn. It's actually fairly relaxing copying something pixel by pixel; it kind of hits a sudoku type nerve.

It's not on the Canadian eShop. That's a trend that's just started that I'm pretty damn sick of already.

Pau · Oct 31, 2014

Price is low enough for me to warrant a try despite not being a pixel artist.

hmm. Sir_Vival did you not tell Nintendo to put it on the Canada eShop? All you have to do is get the eShop page translator to French (which can be done for free with any GAFFER who is willing to help out)

I had originally marked it to launch in Canada, but was told I couldn't without the app being translated. I'll double check on it though.

efyu_lemonardo · Oct 31, 2014

congratulations on the game, Sir_Vival!

Robin64 · Oct 31, 2014

I look forward to the EU release, if you can get some cheap translators.

MaverickHunterAsh · Oct 31, 2014

I'm not nearly creative enough to make good use of something like this, but I will definitely be checking in on its Miiverse community to see the works of people who are. This seems like a really cool app.

Nintendojitsu · Oct 31, 2014

All eShop games should be marketed like this.
