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!

As evidenced by the image above, the latest issue of Nintendo Power reveals a sequel to 5th Cell’s Scribblenauts for the Nintendo DS. According to a report from GoNintendo, the magazine feature additionally details the game’s release window (“fall”), that it will receive “10,000 more words” and “120 new and improved levels,” and will have a focus on the use of adjectives. Thankfully, the report also notes intentions to improve the game’s controls — a major setback of the first outing. We’ve shot an email to the developers and will hopefully have more information on the game sometime soon. For now, you can check out the full magazine cover right here.
