View the Japanese Mario Flipnotes

Japanese gaming folk are a talented bunch and a handful of Mario fans recently uploaded their creations for a Flipnote competition.

Nintendo have been challenging Flipnote Studio users and Mario fans to drawing and animating short tributes, and whilst the UK/Europe contest is underway, over in Japan it recently came to an end.

Winners have been selected, including Mario in a tuxedo, a rather rattled Princess Peach and demanding Goomba! Take a look at Nintendo of Japan's selection on the Flipnote Mario page.
