How to Use Mario Paint

Mario Paint was released in 1992 for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System: It was different from other games on the console at the time, because it came with a two button mouse. It was a basic paint program that also allowed players to draw frame-by-frame animations, and compose simple tunes by dragging icons onto a musical stave. The console and game have been discontinued for many years, but it may be possible to find second hand versions of both.
