this game was fun at first but now the only fun thing to do is the top 10 game but considering i got it for under 7 dollers i think i should have gotten another one for my friend so that i could acually chat

Pictochat.. with shopping!

It's a chat game that lets you draw pictures. But... the DS already COMES with a game that lets you chat and draw pictures! Just use that!

The one fun aspect of this game is that you get to dress up a character that represents you when you talk to your friends. But really, none of my friends have this game, so it's pretty much pointless and boring.

Don't waste your money!

I got this game for free. Don't pay money for it!!! Like other reviewers said, it's Pictochat with avatars. If it used WFC, it might be cool, but it's only DS-to-DS, so it's pointless.

No clue!

Unless it would go toward a bonfire. Seriously, this game is the worst game I have every played in my life, and when I think of a bad game, this one comes to mind. EGM actually gave it two 0.0 and a 1.5. Sad. But then again, I don't think that this game dosen't even deserve a rating, other than "steaming pile of a fat 80 year old middle school dropout's [deleted by amazon]". Thus, this game dosen't even deseerve to exist. Pictochat, which THQ ripped off, is better, and that's free. But maybe you want some more explaining. Here you go

Fun chatting through great-looking 16-bit character animations
Everyone in Pin Pals is represented by an avatar you can dress up and customize
Try to upgrade your avatar by earning cool points - collect, trade, chat and play minigames to win
Supports the single cartridge multiplayer function -- 15 people can play through a single cartridge

The avator is so ugly, it is just pointless. And the single chat function is terrible. Why would you even consider talking to A.I. avators. There's also less functions in the game as well. Less characters, smaller keyboard, and only one pencil width. Pictochat has all this. Who wants to buy clothes for that tiny picture anyway? I will warn you, do not buy this game. IF you do, you are buying a product that falls in the same catergorie as kidz bop. Simplified and kiddy mess. kidz bop is a terrible music series, and to be honest, I don't like Pictochat. Unless you want to draw stupid pictures, than don't bother. Just don't get this. YOu will regret it. Unless your a moron and actually like this lame kiddy image, than save your money and buy Brain Age or Big Brain Academy instead. If you already have it........just save your money, period.

IF YOU BUY THIS, AND LIKE IT, YOU ARE AN IMBECILE

Not That Much Fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I first played it I was confused.So I read the directions.But when you talk to a character you half to say yes or no or they go off line so my point is read the directions first, thier clothes but thet cost coins so it's not a really fun game.

Good Game!

I've never played this game myself, but my friend loves it. She enjoyed all the mini games and chatting with people. I think she would give it 4 stars, though, because it isn't really a game, and there are funner games for the nintendo ds.

This game is dissapointing

I LOVED this game! It was well done. As I walked into EB, I thought this would be a bad game. I was SOOOOOOOO wrong

At first sight, this looks like a cartoony vesion of PictoChat. Well, It's a cartoony, FUN version of PictoChat.

You can chat, play games, and shop for clothes for your Avatar.

Multiplayer is it's strongest point, though. You can chat with up to 8 people at once (with download, too), and you can buy stuff for others for your Avatar.

All in all, if you own a DS, and you think PictoCHat is too boring, RUN, don't walk, to your local video game store!
