Nintendo DS owners surely know something about the built-in chat software PictoChat, the scribble-friendly program that lets us send phallic messages to other DS owners. Now it looks like PictoChat is making an appearance in the upcoming Wii title Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
French gaming site JeuxFrance has a few pictures of a Brawl PictoChat stage. From the looks of it, Pikachu, Peach and pals seem to be walking (and landing) on the drawings, making their way over the sketched obstacles to beat each other down.
Seeing as how there are so many different backgrounds, we're guessing that the drawings frequently change, giving fighters something else to think about other than taking their opponents on.
[Thanks, Justin]

I have to say though, the way they're incorporating the music into each stage sounds pretty cool. This begins to make me think that Nintendo might pull some type of achievement/unlockable content deal to get all the songs for each stage. Sounds promising otherwise though.
