Colors Live isn't meant for animation. It's meant for art. Also it has more layers and much better than making paintings on Flipnote Studio. However it is too much in my opinion. I think $20 would be reasonable since it has a pressure-sensitivity pen. But Flipnote Studio is for animation mostly especially the original DSi Flipnote while Colors is meant for paintings, not animation. A little much in price but not a clone of Flipnote.
