As an artist I love to draw on my friends and even my own Animal Crossing boards. But using my finger and joycons is less than ideal :cry:
I really wish Nintendo had marketed a stylus to go alongside the release of New Horizons to fix this issue
So I'm coming to TBT to ask you guys what styluses you use to draw with your Switch and / or what you'd reccomend!

Bad finger scribbles for context

If it interests you at all Colors Live is releasing soon, and it comes with a stylus that plugs into the headphone jack. The devs say the stylus should work for other Switch games as well as tablets and phones. Maybe you'll be able to buy it separate if you're not interested in the app?

Ohh that will be nice! I have no interest in doing art on the Switch but I will def consider picking up the stylus if you can buy it seperate from the game

Hopefully you can! They should hopefully release replacement styluses so buying one without the game shouldn't be an issue :)

Also off topic but what program do you use to do digital art? I've been wanting to look into programs besides Colors and I really like the art that you do!

Thankyou! I use ProCreate, which is a program you can only get on the iPad
 
Oh okay! I've heard of that program before, must be p good. I don't have an iPad but I could possibly look into getting one 👀
If art is your job it's a good investment. I bought one exclusively for Procreate and wish I had made the jump years ago
 
I'm resurrecting this old thread because I'm interested in making bulletin board art, but my Apple Pencil stylus does not work on the switch. Neither did the 3DS stylus.

Look at this fat finger art of Cookie. It's hilarious, but kind of endearing...

Has anyone found a good stylus for the Switch?

I had a stylus similar to this one that I used for drawing on the switch, the only issue is it’s quite hard to see where you’re drawing as the nib is quite clunky. Compared to drawing with your finger it should make things a lot easier though!

That painting is so cute. 💕

I actually looked for Colors! on Switch a while ago, though I never played it on DS, but for some reason I thought it wouldn't be coming to Switch.

Anyway, the OP from 2020 saying it was coming made me check again, and apparently it's coming in September 2021.

I only mention because it comes with a stylus, though I don't know how well it might work wirh ACNH?

Awesome! And it isn't even the full price of a normal game. Looks fun!
