Videomation is a paint program for NES using the CPROM board, published by THQ in 1991.
It can be seen as the spiritual predecessor of Mario Paint. It has no save feature; the extra battery-backed RAM that would be needed was seen as an unnecessary cost in the VHS era. It has no mouse support, but instead a button can be pressed to toggle among various cursor speeds (much as in Image Fight), and one of the pens has "race car" style control. Animation is with one of eight predefined sprites, and music depends on the animation. The fill tool is extremely slow.
