Mario Paint allows you to color in existing designs (of, say, Mario and Yoshi) or fill the segments with patterns. You’ll be able to create original art and animations too. There’s also a mini-game in which you can test your mouse-pointing accuracy by swatting bugs. Perhaps most importantly for many Mario Paint fans, the music creator is present.
