uDraw Game Tablet is a graphics tablet Wii peripheral which are developed by THQ. uDraw Game Tablet release in North America end of 2010 and launch elsewhere early 2011. This is a white, 9 x 7 inch pad that is an inch and a half deep into which the Wii controller slots in on the left side with blue bordered drawing area on the right side. The drawing area rather smaller than the full area of the tablet, 6 by 4 inch but allowing 1 to 1 connection, between the movement of the stylus and what appears onscreen. The stylus handles great, it’s got a chunkier, toy like feel, though this isn’t the pinpoint accuracy of a professional graphics tablet.

The uDraw Game Tablet draw the power from the Wii Remote’s batteries, but this will reduces the life of the batteries in a Wii controller from about 15 to about 17 hours. The white stylus, which is tethered to the tablet, has 2 buttons and a pressure-sensitive nib that enables the thickness of a pen stroke to be varied. For example, the stylus can also be operated by holding it close to, rather than directly on the surface of the drawing area.
