It's a great way to communicate when your on the Nintendo DS
Below I have written the good and the bad stuff about Picto chat:
THE GOOD:
*You don't need to buy Picto chat (it comes built in with your Nintendo DS).
*You can use the keyboard shown on the screen OR use the stylus to draw and write.
*You can drag little pictures (e.g. stars, love hearts, shapes) on to your screen.
*You can use someone elses message to write and draw on.
THE BAD:
*The writing and drawings are in black and white.
*There isn't much space to use.
*The keyboard is small (you can easily press the wrong letter / shape).
*Remember it's not an email kind of thing, so someone else has to been in the exact same room and at the same time.
*It lets you swear (so some people might get offended).
*When you send a message it goes to everyone in the same room (not just one person of your choice.)
Overall, Picto chat is a great communicating system to use while your on the Nintendo DS. Yes, I know I rated it 7.0 and I have more bad than good, but really, I like to be able to chat.
