Nintendo’s new Art Academy title for Wii U, now called “Art Academy: Sketch Pad”, may be coming out on the eShop next week. A listing on the company’s website suggests a release is planned for August 7 (a Wednesday, oddly enough).
The listing also contains the following description:
Art Academy: SketchPad is a robust art application that anyone can enjoy – from beginners to experts of all ages. Unleash your creativity using realistic stylus and touch screen-based controls. The tools at your disposal allow for an amazing level of detail. The huge variety of pencils, colored pencils, and pastels behave just like the real thing – with additional tools to further enhance your experience.
Use a pre-loaded image as a subject, or anything else you wish to create works of art to your heart’s content. When you’re done, you can instantly share your creation by posting directly to Miiverse!

Codemasters founder David Darling
Darling apparently went on to talk about how Nintendo could look into the realm of brain-controlled gaming with their next home consols, or perhaps something even later than that, and said that the tech is already being researched heavily at Warwick University.

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Podcast Stories | 14 Comments
Nintendo has been emphasizing its “digital business” over the past few years, and it sounds like an even greater focus will be placed in this area going forward.
Recently, president Satoru Iwata stated, “It’s important for us to expand our revenue opportunities.”
Means of downloading content, other than the eShop, have been looked at. Nintendo officials have confirmed that a system will launch by year’s end so that users can purchase items from a PC or smartphone.
The company’s statement reads:
“By the end of the year, we will launch a system where you can purchase (content) from your computer or smartphone through strict account management.”
