Mario Paint 1992

About

Mario Paint is an educational game that allows anyone to create simple pictures, paint over black and white pictures, or free draw their own using the specially developed SNES Mouse. The player can also create their own piece of music using a selection of notes and themes, create greeting cards and animations, or play a game of "Gnat Attack", where they use the mouse to control a swatter to swat flies.

What is happening now

Mario Paint is a creative suite that debuted on Super Nintendo in 1992, blending music composition and drawing tools with puzzle elements. The game has remained largely dormant since its original release, but Nintendo recently brought it back into the spotlight by adding a collection of custom icons to Nintendo Switch Online. Members can now download Mario Paint-themed profile icons alongside designs from other classic titles, giving the retro title a modest presence within the subscription service's growing library of cosmetic options.
