Other than Mario Paint were there any other art games for the old consoles? I tried some internet searches but came up empty handed.

The Atari 2600 game Surround had a mode where you could draw pictures on the screen

Art Alive for the Genesis fits the bill.

It was in pc, so not a console game but it was called KidPix I think and it was pretty cute. Lots of funny brushes and you could even make simple sprite animations

I can still hear "Oops!" and "Oh no!" For the undo button clearly in my head to this day - Kid Pix was the shit in middle school lmao

There were some Korg music creators on DS and 3DS.

Acme Animation Factory has a drawing program and works with the same mouse as Mario Paint.

There was a Tiny Tunes cartoon maker as well.
