What's the point of writing a review for this? It's not a game. If you buy a DS then you've got it.

User Rating: 7.5 | PictoChat DS
Pictochat isn't a game. It's this system on the DS that lets you write or draw messages and pictures and send them to other people on Pictochat. The good thing is that you don't have to buy it, because if you did, your friends with a DS may not have the game and then all you can do is write to yourself. So it's built in the DS whether you like it all not. I have a good time chatting with my friends through it but there are a few problems that kind of make it not worth the while.

* There's no color for writing and drawing so everything is black and white.
* You don't have enough room to draw stuff. I wish there was some sort of dragging thing where you can drag the keyboard up if you need it or down if you don't.
*No space filler. My friends actually take the time to scribble black all over the screen and use the rubber to write stuff so it turns out white, all because there's no space filler.
*Only 2 options for your ink thickness. One thin, one thick and believe me it isn't that thick.
*It's a chore typing stuff in.

Well, those are just some of the bad things about Pictochat. Yeah, I rated it 7.5, but only because I think it was a good idea even to put a communicating system on the DS. But you don't have to play it if you don't want to so I wouldn't worry about the bad stuff. Just play it when you need it.
