It was later made available on the Nintendo 3DS and web browsers in 2013, with largely similar features, and was discontinued in 2017.

In addition, the concept of player-made drawings appearing on the stage is based on - and made possible by - the ability to post drawings or handwritten text on Miiverse using the GamePad or 3DS bottom screen.
