So this is genuinely cool and impressive: Colors is a homebrew application for the Nintendo DS that lets you use the DS’ touchscreen as a painting surface. Since the DS’ touchscreen is pressure-sensitive, Colors treats it like a digital drawing pad one could use for PhotoShop or something—except instead of doing it on a computer, you can carry it around on in your pocket, then email and share whatever paintings you’ve created.

Unsurprisingly, there’s a whole lot of videogame-centric art, and 2Pac truly is eternal. In fact, most of the pictures up on the Colors Gallery are god-awful, like this and this and this. But Colors users have also created stuff like this:

Stunning artwork? Eh, not really. But not too shabby for being created on a cheap little machine that was originally intended to just play Mario games.
