I'm gonna guess Eshop. Considering how Best Buy heavily discounted that Nintendo crossword game and that Brain Age didn't light the world on fire (Being cleared out for $15 at Target) I doubt Nintendo risks retail sadly.
Picross 3D 2 announced

Wow, I'm surprised it took this long. Day 1 buy for me.
Yes, it shows it in the Cat Mario video someone linked on the first page. A small diorama based on whose amiibo you've scanned

Day one.
(Also thanks to whoever mentioned that E6 is now available. Almost missed it)

I've been waiting for this since I bought the 3DS. Purchase justified.

YOOOOOO
I loved Picross 3D, the breath of fresh air the series needed IMO.
On a related note, are the eshop Picross games worth buying to get my fix while I wait for this?

Buying day one and... offing finally!!!
Also, ¥3.000 is the perfect price for this. That's what Rhythm Tengoku and Famicom Remix Best of should cost too imho.

I love the original. I hope it somehow gets a retail release in Europe.

Cool. Picross 3D was never quite as good as good old 2D Picross IMO (the simplicity was part of its brilliance), but still pretty great.

YES! Picross 3D is one of the absolute best DS games and is better than 2d Picross, so I've really been hoping that they make another one. Here's hoping that the puzzle creator and downloadable user puzzle features return, they were great in the DS picross games but weren't in the Picross e games for 3DS eshop... all those downloadable puzzles added a lot to the game, even if it was kind of awful that you couldn't fit all the downloadable puzzles in either cart (Picross DS or Picross 3D), which means that you can't play all the puzzles anymore now that online support is dead.
But yeah, Picross 3D is amazing and I've really been hoping they make a 3DS sequel, so it's awesome that it's coming and that it is a retail game as well. Now all we need is a US release. Here's hoping.

You certainly do. Picross e6 is out.

I love classic Picross much more. I want a new Picross with the polish that this game is probably gonna have. ;;
The Picross e games are fine, but I hate that half the game is worthless to me because it forces you to play puzzles that instantly let you know if you've made a mistake. No! I don't want any hints or help. I just wanna figure out my puzzle and if I spent 30 minutes working myself in an unresolvable mess I'd gladly start over. I don't care about time penalties. ):
Also they never go on sale, do they?

In the later E games (I think E4 onwards?), you can actually play all the puzzles in Free mode. It's an option in the settings menu (and the right way to play, I agree).

That is optional right? I find destroying all the zero lines myself to be oddly satisfying.
The easiest part of every Picross puzzle is when you get to start around the boarder and work your way inward, but the flaw with 3D is that you can ONLY work with it that way, and so there's actually far less depth to the gameplay than the traditional form. I sure hope they just realized this and add a few twists to the mechanics, it is still an appealing concept.
The puzzles are still too small though. Also while I appreciate them putting a Picross and Mega Picross of every picture in in e6 I would've preferred a toggle somewhere rather than actually making me do all of them twice.

Day 1.
3000yen isn't the cheapest but it's a good price to launch this at. 10yen per puzzle basically

And I thought my Pikachu amiibo would be of use for many games.
Guess I'll have to wait for Pokémon Picross or something
