Nintendo of America is teaming with visual arts educators across the United States to give students a fresh, fun way to study drawing and painting techniques. As part of a unique relationship between Nintendo and the National Art Education Association (NAEA), art teachers in elementary, middle and high school classrooms have been provided with hand-held Nintendo DSi XL™ systems and copies of Art Academy™, a software title that offers interactive art tutorials for budding artists of any background or skill level. Last month, the hardware and software were distributed to select teachers who are participating in the program, inviting them to discover interesting ways to incorporate Art Academy into creative classroom activities.

Created exclusively for the Nintendo DS™ family of systems, Art Academy lets students enjoy lessons on subjects such as color, shading and perspective. Using the Nintendo DS stylus just like a paintbrush or pencil, they can practice and develop skills that transfer easily to real-world art materials. In addition to guided tutorials, students can let their own creativity run wild in Free Paint mode, which lets them draw or paint whatever comes to mind.

Virtual Console – FINAL FANTASY® III (SQUARE ENIX, Super Nintendo, 900 Wii Points)

Originally released as FINAL FANTASY III on SNES in North America, this game is in fact FINAL FANTASY VI from the main series chronology. Continuing the long history of FINAL FANTASY games, FINAL FANTASY III allows you to enter the world of the Espers. Mythical magic beings, thought long extinct until the discovery of one buried deep in the ice sparks a series of magic attacks amongst citizens using MagiTek weapons.

Who or what is behind the rediscovery and redeployment of this legendary power? What chaotic plans exist that will wreck havoc on this orderly world?

Okamiden launch trailer

Posted on 14 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in DS, Videos | 0 comments

If this trailer doesn’t convince you to buy Okamiden, I don’t know what will! I want to see this franchise continue, and I’m sure there are at least a few other gamers out there that feel the same way. But, obviously, Okamiden needs to sell. You want to see Chibiterasu and Amaterasu again, don’t you?
