Tony Hawk's American Sk8land Unlockables (DS)

Tony Hawk's American Sk8land is a video game developed by Vicarious Visions and published by Activision on November 15, 2005, in North America, exclusively for the Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance portable devices, as part of the company's long-running Tony Hawk skateboarding simulator series and is one of the few titles that appeared only for the handheld platforms.

Tony Hawk's American Sk8land is loosely based on the Tony Hawk's American Wasteland title, which was released around the same time for home consoles like the Nintendo GameCube or Sony PlayStation 2, using the same soundtrack or environments, but has a customized gameplay, which uses the unique features of the DS, like the touchscreen, to do skateboard tricks and unlock special moves with high scores.

Secret board and graffiti art

Go to the Graffiti Editor. Use the stylus to select the tool in the upper-left corner of the bottom screen. Next, at the color palette at the bottom, choose the bright red that is in the bottom row and color the top part of the board red, so that you have two-thirds of the board remaining. Make sure you color every part of the top portion or it will not work.

Next, choose the bright green in the bottom row in the color palette and color the middle section green. Again, make sure you get every part in the middle section. Finally, use the bright blue in the bottom row of the palette and color the entire bottom portion blue. Once you have done that, double-check that you have everything colored in and you have not missed a spot, and that each color takes up one-third of the board. Now, in the color palette, touch the color in the top row all the way to the left, then touch the color swapper tool (the object that looks like two boxes with an arrow between them).

You should now have a picture of two stick men holding various objects. Do the entire process again, only this time do it in the Board Editor. When you have filled the board with the appropriate colors in the correct places as described above, select the "transparent" color, and choose the color swapper tool. The picture magically changes to a pixelated Scottish man, complete with kilt and golf club.
