Nintendo News: Draw Inspiration from Mario Paint – Available Now on Nintendo Classics!

REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Mario Paint game is available now on the Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch systems via the Super Nintendo Entertainment System - Nintendo Classics library1!

The 1992 Super NES game turns your system into a canvas, with an array of colors and drawing tools available to create digital works of art. You can even animate your drawings and compose music to craft your own video creations! Get ready to unlock your inner artist using the Joy-Con 2 controller’s mouse functionality on Nintendo Switch 2, or by using a compatible USB mouse (sold separately) on a Nintendo Switch or Nintendo Switch – OLED Model system.

And just like in the original game, you can access the Coloring Book featuring fun designs and character art or play the Gnat Attack training game for some extra mouse control fun.

Nintendo Switch Online is a paid membership service that gives players access to a multitude of benefits, including a library of classic games and online play in compatible games. Nintendo Switch 2 players can use the GameChat2 feature to connect with friends through voice, video or screen sharing.

Brush up on your skills and create your Mario masterpiece!
