Ahem, sorry again for stealing space in the Capcom forums to promote our own creations and blow my own trumpet~
I already mentioned it to some people at the Capcom Christmas party, but now it's finally launched in Europe; Art Academy First and Second Semester for the DSi.
Art Academy is a game that primarily teaches you how to draw and paint, but it's also a solid piece of drawing application for advanced artists as well. Seeing as its focus is on traditional art, when for example using a brush it actually feels like you're making proper brush strokes.
It's definitively the game I'm the most proud of being part of, as it's a unique game unlike any other - it actually teaches you something valid and concrete about art, and it has a lot of depth to it. If you're interested in learning how to draw and paint, or if you even already work as a professional artist and just wants a portable drawing application, this is definitively something worth checking out.

The game is doing pretty well in Japan, and you can see some of the cool things people have managed to create here:
