I saw Binding of Isaac pop up on amazon.fr, release date is September 4th
That's kinda late compared to the US version
it's a miracle Nicalis even managed to arrange this at all.
it's still 2 years faster than usual.

Its a puzzle game where your goal is to connect lines, in order to create pictures. Of course, said lines need to be of a certain length, indicated by numbers on the grid, and you also need to match the colour of the numbers. In short, you cannot connect lines if 1) its between two different numbers 2) the line isnt long enough (3 cases when connecting two 4s, for example), 3) the two numbers are of a different colour.
Heres details about the two main modes:
Story Mode: 5 chapters and 100 puzzles to go through. The story follows the adventures of a slightly unusual professor turning objects into pixels using his Piczle-Matic 3000 camera;
Puzzle Mode: 100 puzzles for you to solve. The puzzles come in themed packs, including 20 puzzles each. Theres various themes: sports, pets, vehicles, foods, and more. Whats more, it looks like additional puzzles will be added at a later date, via free updates!
Piczle Lines can be played via the touchscreen in Handheld Mode, but also using the Joy-Cons on TV and Tabletop Mode.
First Picross-like game announced for Nintendo Switch. Piczles Lines DX.
Maybe Neo Geo is actually the first bunch of virtual console games.
I couldn't help but get a Tappingo vibe from it, but then I remembered Tappingo only let you slide blocks to form pictures, you didn't have free control. Will be interesting to see how much this costs, seems like it could be up my alley.

Might be interested if there's no timer. That put me off the demo of a 3DS one I tried. Although there's no time limit as such, the timer put me off. I want to play games like this to relax, not to put myself under pressure.
It really isn't Slitherlink, no. Though I personally LOVE Slitherlink, that is a "mere" logic game, whereas Piczle Lines is more an illust-logic game, like Picross. If you connect all the dots correctly you end up with an image.DagsJT said:I quite like Picross but this is Slitherlink I think, not quite the same appeal to me.
It is somewhat similar in that you create images, but in Piczle Lines you don't slide but draw lines between two set points (of the same colour, having the same number, the number denoting the number of grid squares the finished line has to cover - it sounds more complicated than it is!)Zonic said:I couldn't help but get a Tappingo vibe from it
Indeed! For all things Piczle Lines please check out Club Piczle. If you go to the (mobile) Piczle Lines DX page (2nd banner from the top) there will be links to iTunes and GooglePlay. There are enough free puzzles in the base version to give you an indication of what the game is and whether you'll like this or not!tolkir said:There is a free-to-play smartphone version. Anybody can check it there.
Yup, pretty sure I downloaded Mario 64 before doing anything else on my launch week Wii, even over playing Wii Sports or Zelda. A game I always wanted but never had.Man what a downgrade from the Wii that would be. I didn't have one but didn't it launch day one with Mario 64 (THE GOAT) on VC?
Dev here! No timer! This logic-puzzle game is for relaxation and brain challenging only!

So, twice Mutant Mudds, Xeodrifter and Bomb Monkey. I'll probably grab Xeodrifter. Even though I find it's only on 3DS in Europe??? (((

I expect a good price for Dark Witch, given it's from Circle again who gave us Kamiko for a fiver.

They also published VOEZ for 25$, so...
But looking at previous Inside System games, around 5$ sounds likely.
Wait, September 4th for Binding of Isaac? Hahaha oh wow.
Amazon.fr says July 1st now.
Voez price is completely justified though, to get all that content on mobile you had to pay over $100
Published by Nicalis, so that's 2019 in EU.
That looks like a place holder date from the third party seller "Just For Games".
I think the official stance for Europe from Nicalis/Head-up Games is still just "Q2" this year.
August 31, published by 505 Games.
It's currently scheduled for a release on June 26, stay tuned for more information/an official announcement.

Really? Where does that information come from? I just watched a trailer that said Nicalis.
Not doubting you, just wondering why there is conflicting info.
Nicalis is self-publishing in NA (SEGA distributes their stuff apparently for some reason?). They need partners for Europe. I forgot who is partnering with them for Isaac (Bad Lands?)
I mean Pocket Rumble is still this quarter supposedly. Soooo

Any word on the price? I'm checking the mobile version & it seems to get all the stuff, it's about $7.50 (which is rather cheap, I was thinking it'd be $10+), which is kind of decent. I might give in if it's $5 on Switch, especially with the bigger screen.Dev here!

So I was looking at the upcoming schedule and noticed that there's essentially a 2-week empty period coming up, the last week of May and first week of June:
May Week 2
Thumper (May 18)
May Week 3
Disgaea 5 Complete (May 23)
Ultra Street Fighter II (May 26)
May Week 4
[nothing]
June Week 1
[nothing]
June Week 2
Cars 3 (June 13)
Arms (June 16)
Are there games announced I don't know about or will we get another Thumper type announcement soon? I checked the big Wiki schedule and Nintendo's own page.

Edit: Yeah, I'm liking this, but I would much rather play it on the Switch due to the bigger screen & button support. Sometimes, it'll go somewhere where I didn't want it to or start a line I didn't want to start yet, which can be a pain considering one of the in-game achievements is "don't erase a line on a medium sized puzzle".
I'm guessing all the puzzles will be bundled together, or will it be similar to mobile where you need to buy the separate packs?
That's good to hear. I grabbed the few free bundles, but now that I've done Ch. 1, I might just wait so I can experience the rest on the Switch's bigger screen & not have so many puzzles feel so zoomed in, not to mention I wanna be able to see the number counter as I'm sliding the pieces instead of having my thumb covering it.Price hasn't been decided yet, but the plan is to have a one off purchase that includes all the puzzle bundles with more added in the future as free updates.
Maintenance.The eShop has been offline for me today, anyone else having issues?
Dang.That was yesterday, though.
