Flipnotes from the PAX 2009 show floor

by JC Fletcher on Mar 8th 2010 3:15PM

During PAX last year, Nintendo asked any professional artists who happened to be there to create an animation in the DSiWare program Flipnote Studio. Now, the flipnotes from comic artists like Eric Jones and Christina Strain, webcomics artist Scott Kurtz, and 5TH Cell art director Edison Yan, have finally been posted in a gallery on the Flipnote Hatena site.

Showing what can be done in a few minutes by a talented artist, and building on the excitement of a popular convention, makes this initiative a great promotional tool for the free app (and for the DSi in general), which is why Nintendo waited until six months after the event to release these!

It's wierd that they'd wait so long to release these, but I guess reminding people of a fun and FREE application is a good enough excuse. Its been out for so long, I hope it gets more attention by people willing to create art than the current crowd making nonsensical videos just asking to give their profile undeserved stars.
