Do you remember Flipnote? 

This video is just supposed to be a man reminiscing about the past, it is not supposed to be factual in the slightest, just a trip down memory road. Thanks.

i never owned a ds, but one of the highlights of my child hood is heading over to my cousin's house and just watching flipnotes for hours. times were better then

Me with my 2 stickmen FlipNote: Ha, this is pretty cool Other people on FlipNote:

I’ll always remember the running and kicking a guy off a cliff videos, and the ridiculous amount of variations they had

I grew up with flipnote but no wifi, so i literally made my own flipnotes and laughed at them and never knowing that you could see other people's flipnotes

I fking loved flipnote. It was “RU-vid” for me back in the day.

Flipnote really is legendary... Even though my DS lite didn't include it, so i was envious of my cousins DSi and DSi. Also, the All Star Mario parody was the greatest of them all!

I’ve never had flipnote but your right about everything else the ds is a staple and always will be a staple in my 3-9 year old childhood

I could never harness the full power of flipnote when I had it. But people like Kekeflipnote can use the full potential of the software and then some.

Flip note was my unbeknownst introduction to short term media that would then envelope to vine then TikTok. So basically, flip note was the first vine/tt.

Flipnote played a huge roll in my love for art and animation, it was the perfect thing at the perfect time on the perfect system for a kid. I know there are alternatives, but I'd kill to have a unified experience like Flipnote exist again

Honestly, there are some of those things from your childhood that just don't stand up to today's standards anymore, like some cartoons that you might have enjoyed as a child or those crappy flash games that I grew up with, but there's still that lovely aspect of nostalgia in there which always just hits me while revisiting some old games that I played in the past, that to someone who didn't experience them at the time, would seem boring, and wouldn't understand how you enjoy them. Nostalgia is something truly beautiful, in my opinion, whether it'd be about a videogame, a friendship, or a certain period of your life. It's a feeling we should all cherish and indulge in, every once in a while, to remind ourselves of our past and the things that brought us here.

ngl flipnote changed alot of peoples lives yet its worth everyone time wish there was a successor to flipnote

Flipnote was my childhood and the start of my animation hobby. They day it died, my heart cracked a little

I remember watching a “this is the best burrito” animation with Naruto on my dsi. Those were the days.

I think the only reason it wouldnt be the same is because memes and internet culture has drastically shifted from when flipnote was around alive and well.

Ah yes a better time indeed because my parents werent divorced

I'm 13 so i am too young to have any nostalgia for this stuff (sadge)

I still make flip notes to this day! You can turn them into gifs and put the audio back over on a computer.

I’ve been making Flipnotes since 2012 and I still make them to this day! I miss Flipnote Hatena so much it physically hurts sometimes. It was such a huge part of my childhood and I love hearing other people talk about their experiences.

I remember an elephant stepping on someone, a hairy creature thing, one person running and kicking another person off screen, and like a skateboard??

Flipnote Studio was my first ever taste of the internet. It was all I had for years before I got youtube on the wii. Flipnote Studio has left an imprint on my very core, I unironically believe it influenced who i've become.

"its time to leave this software in the past" sudomemo community, raxdflipnote, and zane little: NOPE!

Loving these ms paint drawings steve, very immersive

As the thousandth viewer I do declare that I am currently holding back tears as I loved this software ;-;

Good times... I still have my original light blue dsi with flipnote on it. Anyways thanks for the nostalgia trip my guy 👍🏻

The part where you talk about singing about su****e and what your dad was thinking (or going through his life decision perhaps) was hilarious. I had to look up that song (and succeeded). :D For me, who never experienced this particular era, this video was refreshing. :)

“Let’s go gambling”

I got a Nintendo DS on my 6th birthday when my mom went to the army. I was OBSESSED with that thing. I lived, no THRIVED, on that thing.

The DS was it all, a game consol, search engine, voice recorder, instant mesenging platform, and now animation software

Bro really forgot us original DS and Lite users never got to try Flipnote unless we had friends that were lucky enough to have DSis

The stick figure fights was the prime of life

Yup! I'm so happy, I recently found all of them on Flipnote Archive! So many memories! 🔥❤️

"you should let it be in the past..." me who just bough a DSi XL for flipnote-

The day flipnote was no longer working on DSI XL, I got depression :(

I'm still waiting for "Do you remember Battleblock Theater?"

Ah, still the most advanced animating software I own to this day

Me and my sister used to watch and make flip notes all the time

Just thinking about Flipnote Studio is something I don't want to do because it feels me with such an extraordinarily painful sense of nostalgia that it overwhelmes me. Like, damn... fuck. It all just hurts so much, that it's gone, that time

I have soo many memories of Flipnote. I was so sad when they removed the internet function.

I think it’s weird that you can have Netflix on a DS

Still flipnoting to this day

great pictures

LMFAOOOO bro your completely right. I forgot to ask for games so for months until my birthday came around I had a ds but no games. I would steal mine from kids I didn’t like at day care. There was a bully i once took his Pokémon ruby GBA cart from his ds and I put it in mine and played it around him every day for a year

I got a DSI in 2011 and mainly used it for photos and sound files, and only started making a lot of time making flip notes in 2013-2014. Sadly I never was able to use the Hatena because it was shutting down when I started using Flipnote

Damn, Eight lives like that?

The saddest part is that I never got it

Me and my cousins used to draw manga. Those were the days

Flip Note was Awesome, change my mind

Some kinda problems or whatever you wanna call it with the video: 1:05 That's a OG DS (Or a Fat DS if you wanna call it that) NOT a DS Lite. 1:17 That's... not at ALL what a DS, 3DS, or ANY Nintendo handheld looks like looks like. (The bottom is like a GBA with the top screen of a 3DS) 1:19 Ok, but like, the DS had an AMAZING battery life, sure it's POSSIBLE, but just very unlikely (If this was a 3DS we're talking about it'd be a different story) 1:21 NO DS, 3DS, or even the GBA SP had a charger that went in the SIDE. 1:30 Ok 3 things about THIS one 1. How on EARTH is Flipnote Studio on the OG DS? Even if this WAS a DS Lite, THAT doesn't run Flipnote studio EITHER. 2. Flipnote Studio is NOT a base app, for ANY DS, even the DSi, so it MUST'VE been a pre-owned DS (At least the WOULD explain point 3 with the battery life) 3. Why is the home menu on the TOP screen? It's NEVER been on the top screen, on any DS/3DS handheld. This is NOT suppose to be a negative comment, just kinda, well, actually I don't know what you'd call it, just know I'm not trying to be exact, but I just don't really want people thinking some of this stuff is how it's SUPPOSED to be.

Flip note was my first mp3 player and my first real introduction to music outside of video games ❤️

I remember when the title was Nintendo’s Greatest Invention when it popped up

2 years later and we got "LETS GO GAMBLIN"

I remember watching Flipnote at 9PM before heading to bed instead of looking at the media

By the way, the epic stick fight dudes have youtube channels, one is BosS Artwork and the other one is CS Ghost

ive never used flipnote, since ive never had a DS, but the overall style is something i'd be willing to pay money to be able to emulate through other programs 👀

I remember watching other people’s flip notes late at night when I was 8 and attempted to do my own afterwards. I wish I still had my DSI to look back, but all that’s left are the old ones on my grandmother’s DSI i made 🥲

I remember the animation with the song “I will never be afraid again”

Still using it today!!

I sure wonder how my life would turn out if I grew up with flipnote.

There were so many good videos

the only flipnote i remember seeing was some animation that had our special place by the queenstons (banger song) and it honestly loooks really good

Flipnote would’ve been perfect on the Wii U!!!!

I still got this on my ds

i in fact do i have a lot of memories with that

Flip note was the original vine, TikTok, ect.

dont know if you know but the dude who made most of these stickman fights is called csghostanimations and he made a few similar videos

Flipnote was epic, I just never had internet on the dsi lol

I own a NDS and I didn't know the existence of this thing, I was too young that I don't even know basic english so I never take a look around the DS library and only play the same piracy games that my dad downloaded for internet

this video is the Nintendo ds of RU-vid videos

you can still use flipnote but it is called sudomemo now

Me, a Nintendo nerd: uH aCtUaLLY thE dsi HaD fLiPnOtE nOT ThE LitE

now im just disappointed in my 7yr old self for never browsing the base apps

Flipnote was so different, yet so comfy compared to nowaday's social media. I checked things out on there almost every day. I miss it. So much.

There’s flipnote 3d on the 3ds, and it’s really nice

Damn, if only i learned how to turn on the internet on the dsi i had when i was younger...

Of course I remember it! I still use it!!!

there is one that needs to be redeemed with a code you get from your Nintendo account it's Flipnote studio 3D

HE FINALLY TALKS ABOUT FLIPNOTE STUDIO LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Yes I remember Flipnote, Brings back memories.

Flipnotes was my youtube as a kid.

I remember all of those.

I had flip note on my 3DS, opened it up after a few years, and it’s gone. I’ve never been as sad

Something not everyone know is the flipnote chats where u could send drawings as messages in public chats💀💀 that shit was the funniest shi ever as a kid i remember seeing sonic hentai once

I loved my ds. Good times

Man, my time really sucked, considering the state of things at home. Couldn't even get a proper internet connection, either. Meaning I never got to try this application out.

So many good memories. Unfortunately my DSI XL has breathed its last. It won't charge.

Yes i do in fact remember flipnote on my dsi and for some weird reason i was scared the one where the boy gets stepped on by an elephant

2:06 babhaaaaa lmaooo

grr this makes me want to charge my ds and like fucking mess around with flipnote for a bit

I didn't grow up with flipnote but I think it's cool

fuzz: nah i'd revive

I swear I remember this and don’t remember it at the same time

I still use my 3DS for flipnotes for RU-vid content

I still have me DS. I was just on flipnote like 10 min ago

Yes and I still feel destroyed after the shutdown.

I just played as the flipnote frog on rivals of aether

looks like the only way to get flipnote studio is by modding your 3ds

oh man. I remember being on hatena every single day, I was there when they announced its closure and experienced the first day after it got shut down... honestly I'm still mourning it a little :')

How am I getting nostalgic over a thing that was not even a part of my childhood? What is happening to me? O_O
