If you enjoyed painting in Kidspaint on Homebrew Channel on your Wii then you can now look forward to the official version, which is coming to WiiWare on your Nintendo Wii!
The official version is called Paint Splash and is being released in a couple of months. There will be more features, better usability, better graphics - and you don't even need to have Homebrew Channel installed in order to paint in Paint Splash!
It is still possible to paint 4 people at the same time, and it is still possible to save your pictures to your SD memory card, so you can transfer them to your computer afterwards.
More information about price and release date can be found at paintsplash.knapnokgames.com.
