YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

RIP my time

:O


:O :O :O



If you look at my 3DS gamelog, Picross 3D is still the one with the most hours logged.

 

[cyba89]

MEGATON!

 

[AcademicSaucer]

HOLY SHIT YES, I never lost faith .


Is it HAL ?

 

[BiggNife]

Oh my god yes

Picross 3D is so good

 

[chronic_archaic]

Oh wow!

 

[zroid]

HOLY FUCK MEGATONNNNNNNNNNN

 

[kuroneko0509]

3000 yen w/o tax.... I'll bite day 1

Is it HAL ?

yes

 

[Nanashrew]

HOLY SHIT YES, I never lost faith .


Is it HAL ?

Website says Hal Laboratory at the bottom, so yep!

 

[Struct09]

I've been waiting for this!!!

 

[A Link to the Past]

...Hm

I just wish they'd make a Picross DS 2. Looking forward to this, but the Picross e games just aren't cutting it as a proper sequel IMO.

For this, I just hope that they have an option to let you automatically erase all straight lines of zeros (ie, ones where you would just hold the stylus down to clear a line). That was a huge pet peeve I had with Picross 3D, it was just tedious and required no skill.

 

[Elija2]

Holy shit, this better come out in NA.

 

[PumpkinSpice]

Looks pretty cool. 3000 yen is a good price -- I'll probably download/eshop this day 0, which is not something I do often.

 

[Fusilli Craig]

FUCK. YES.

NOA don't fail me on this one. Bring over this and Rhythm Heaven and all is forgiven.

 

[meltingparappa]

Awh, they don't animate after getting solved.

Acceptable tradeoff for getting half cubes and googly eyes!

 

[bigkrev]

I'd be really pissed about this if we didn't get Picross e6 2 weeks ago.

 

[Best Nintendo Fan Ever]

Day 1. My most played game on DS.

 

[ActStriker]

YES

 

[CypherSignal]

So, in that example video, there's nothing particularly unique to the block breaking to give the bevels or spheres? It's just that when a row is cleared, it transitions to the other shape?

Oh well, I'm still over the fucking moon to see this announced. Come on NOA, do it!!

 

[Kouriozan]

MEGATON!

 

[Marow]

THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER

Yea I'd prefer Picross 2 over 3D. There were some new tricks in 3D but overall I just found it tedious combing through different layers looking for overlaps or contradictions vs having all the info immediately on the screen at once.

But splitting up the games with e series has allowed them to iterate and refine the best new parts (ie Mega Picross) so I'm okay with the smaller chunks.

YASSSSSSS

GOAT PUZZLE GAME RETURNS

 

[randomlee26]

Ahhhhhhh so excited

I bet amiibo unlock puzzles!!

 

[LAA]

Oh wow! Please be good. I was joyed to have picross e...then e2, e3, e4..to e6 I believe. Just totally milked it and I didn't feel itnwas worth the price they were asking after the 2nd. Hopefully 3D 2 brings back a sense of value

 

[lazybones18]

Day 1

 

[El Odio]

This is the greatest day ever! Out of fuckin nowhere.

 

[Santiako]

GOTY outta nowhere

 

[Diggeh]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES I LOVE PICROSS 3D IT'S SUPER GOOD I MADE A PIXEL ART A LONG TIME AGO GET HYYYYYYYYYYYYYYPE

*ahem*

It only took a sequel to get the Picross 3D series on 3DS. Yay!

 

[Silver_DNA]

Game of the Year contender!

 

[AwakenedCloud]

WE DO IT!!!

 

[KevinCow]

Finally. Hopefully it comes to the US.

 

[BatDan]

Holy fuck yes!
Yes yes yes!

 

[CharminUltra]

SIGH good bye, free time.

 

[Maintenance]

What is Picross?

 

[astrogamer]

This week's Cat Mario Time for Japan has a bit of a gameplay look if want to see more of it

[Davey Cakes]

I never finished the first one. So many puzzles!

 

[Pyccko]

MY GOD

They're $6 each for ~150 puzzles and Picross DS had ~300 IIRC, plus they made meaningful additons with each game. I don't see how it was milked.

 

[vagabondarts]

This is the true megaton!

Amazing!
Been waiting for a sequel for a long time

 

[Plinko]

YESYESYESYESYES

 

[Zonic]

Really need to try the original, considering I have Picross DS (did all Normal Mode puzzles & up to Level 7 on Free Mode) & e1, e2, & e3 on 3DS.

Amiibo support will be interesting. Maybe you have to solve a puzzle to make a replica of the amiibo you scanned?

 

[lt519]

This is absolutely amazing!!!!!! My favorite puzzle game of all time. Should be a super easy translation, do it NoA

NINTENDO BRING BACK THE TOUCH! GENERATIONS LABEL

Gimme a new Planet Puzzle League!

Hmm I suppose...I will say they did last me a while. I guess I was just longing for a full picross game instead rather than many smaller sized ones. That and in fact longing for a 3D 2 didnt help ha ha.
3D 2 looks awesome from the video above! Though not sure how I feel about sub sections in the blocks. Not sure how it works...or its automatic.

 

[Hatty]

Fuck yeah

 

[A Link to the Past]

Picross DS had 1000 DLC puzzles, a multi-player mode, the ability to create puzzles - either by drawing tiles or by actually drawing a picture and having it morph into a Picross puzzle, and 25x20 puzzles.

I paid $20 for that, compared to $36 for the six e-series games

 

[Seanlole]

FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Salsa]

oh my god
