	PictoChat DS Review, Picto Chat Review, Nintendo DS, Nintendo DS Review, Female Gamers, Grrl Gamers, Women Gamers, ...
		Pictochat is a very clever and welcome addition to the Nintendo DS handheld and although some may suggest a certain gimmick appeal it’s actually a lot of fun and a ‘game’ in itself.

		For this reviewer pictochat is a clever and welcome addition to the DS and shouldn’t be overlooked by those of you who are lucky enugh to know others with the machine.

	IGN: PictoChat Preview
		May 11, 2004 - PictoChat for the Nintendo DS was one of those simple programs that showed the basics of what the system can do.
		It's a very simple program where the lower screen is used for the drawing and typing input, utilizing the touch screen to give players the ability to write, draw and hammer out messages to each other by using the stylus pen.
		Nintendo representatives have suggested that PictoChat may actually be incorporated into the system hardware as a default program that every Nintendo DS owner will have.

	Gamerz-Edge - Ping Pals Review for Nintendo DS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The addition of personalized player avatars, however, requires the chat box to be shrunk to about 2/3 of the top screen size, with the current chatter’s picture, along with yours, displayed to the left of the text/drawings.
		Luckily, as a result, you’re able to send a limited version to another player without the game, but it’s a bit difficult getting someone to agree to chat with you through a program they have to download each time if they aren’t going to receive anything for it personally.
		The game might have some redeeming qualities in its potential for interactivity provided multiple friends of yours have a copy of their own (so that they can join in on the collection), but aside from that, it’s incredibly difficult for a game to be fun when its very purpose is so ambiguous.

	PictoChat Review - DS - Thunderbolt Games
		With the advent of the Internet, people across the globe are now able to present their ideals and culture with minimal effort, using websites, chat rooms and instant messaging as their medium.
		PictoChat has taken the simple concept of the chat room and allows up to four separate rooms on a single DS.
		Although the size of the DS makes it a little hard to wield as you go about your daily routine, PictoChat could be used as a makeshift organizer as well as a communication tool.

	Pictochat Review / Preview for the Nintendo DS (NDS)
		Pictochat is not a game exactly, but rather a messaging tool that shows off the wireless Bluetooth technology within the system itself.
		If Pictochat doesn't come packaged already inside the DS hardware, then I'm nominating this piece of software to not only be the lamest thing I've ever heard of, but quite possibly the biggest rip off I've witnessed in my 37 years of living on this planet.
		Personally I'm guessing all of the pictures will be of badly drawn boobs and all of the typed messages will be of the F sharp variety.

		Another rumor that is spreading around is that PictoChat may come packaged with the DS or it will be available at a much-reduced price (10 to 20 USD).
		The first rumor of Pictochat being packaged with the DS would be a very good strategy for the DS.
		The ability to talk with a program such as Pictochat before a match of Metroid Prime would be wicked fun.

	IGN Boards - Pictochat how does it work
		Pictochat allows two DS users to communicate wirelessly to each other using both an on-screen keyboard and a free-hand drawing tool.
		In order for two or more people to use Pictochat, they both have to have their DS' on, have entered Pictochat, be in the same "chat room", as well as being physically close to them...like within a 30 or so foot radius.
		It's only 'good' function is for sending electronic notes to a friend with a DS in class, or to another person on a bus or airplane...basically anywhere where just talking or shouting over at a person would be "frowned upon".

		But you don’t KNOW how fun this part of the DS is! This week we sat in Nintendo’s conference room and used PictoChat for nearly twenty straight minutes.
		Everyone had a DS and everyone was communicating easily, flawlessly, and less than beautifully.
		Apparently it’s hilarious to draw obscene symbols and words on the PictoChat writing pad and giggle like girls.

	First Impressions - Nintendo DS // DS /// Eurogamer
		Even after a long night of stealing Nintendo DS branded napkins from the launch event, excitement over the new toy gripped us enough to sit on opposite sides of the house sending each other crudely fashioned freehand drawings of the sexual act - as well as enthusiastic messages of explanation using the on-screen keyboard.
		Loading up PictoChat gives you a choice of four chat rooms, each of which has a capacity for 16 users, and the connection when you find a fellow user is immediate and responsive.
		For the moment, however, PictoChat is going to be best utilised by groups of like-minded users in places like out of town shopping centres, school yards and potentially the workplace.

	PictoChat at TGS: BarrensChat Portable - Kotaku
		The Stiq has a complete gallery of PictoChat masterpieces from that ephemeral few minutes before the yapping began, and they provide a hilarious portrayal of grown men and women acting like fifth graders passing notes.
		Until they become anonymous with pictochat in a giant dark roomful of people.
		Whenever I try to write in pictochat, my scribbles look like an epileptic strobe light operator stole my DS and is trying to brag about it to his friends.

	ABC in Nintendo scare
		The tale, here, is based on an 11 year old girl who was apparently contacted by someone wanting to talk with her via Pictochat on her Nintendo DS.
		With the sound effect of a story crashing around her, the hackette went away only to call back later to ask if such an attack was possible in one of Philadelphia's "Wi-Fi hotspots".
		She was told that Pictochat would still not work because it doesn't ever make any connection with a network as it has no means of connecting to an Internet Service Provider (ISP).
