All Nine Picross e Games Will Make The Jump From 3DS To Switch Next Year In Picross S+

Literally shaking right now

I wish they also added the Zelda picross even if later.

Unless its Kemono Friends Picross, I dont really see why youd use that instead of 94749174394857 free apps on the phone

Gimme all those Picross right now, you cowards!

@Princess_Lilly because no one is as polished as the Picross series.

While we’re talking 3DS…where‘s Poochy and Yoshi’s Wooly World?

Add Picross 3D and Picross 3D: Round 2, then colour me interested.

Slowly going through them on my 3DS as bought them all before the shop closed, wish the Sega one was on it, but they had given up on 3DS by then.
I still cant get my head around the Mega Picross though.

@Olmectron I was wondering that myself. I already have it on the 3DS, but having it on Switch would be nice (and maybe with some more puzzles, or heck, Picross puzzles based on other Zelda games, such as Skyward Sword, Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, The Wind Waker, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and even the original Zelda on NES).

Have any/many of these puzzles been reused in the switch Picross S games? I don’t mind some repeats but if it’s too many I may pass.

The Picross sea continues to be filled. Not complaining as I am a massive fan. 3D Picross and the cool themed Picrosses were excellent in particular. I have most of the e series my ol' New 3DS XL, mind. I missed the Twilight Princess reward only Picross. Me needs it!

Gimme Picross 3D you cowards!

The only issue I think I’d have with this is the controls, I love using the stylus to do Picross. Not that it was a problem using the D-pad in Mario Picross, but I just feel it’s hard to translate DS/3DS games to another system. I’m glad I got these Picross games along with the Etrian Odyssey games on the 3DS when I had the chance.

@Pineapple_Mohawk A pack of both Picross 3D games on Switch would be awesome. I really liked those games.

But I am also a sucker for regular Picross, and I only played some of the 3DS ones. I’m definitely gonna buy this and lose hundreds of hours in this addictive little puzzles.

BRING BACK PUZZLE LEAGUE DS onto Switch.

Please.

Oh, nice! I may look into this!

@AndroidiOS Or add AC:PL to New Horizons

@CaleBoi25 I don't play AC:NH

Imagine you are already too addicted to fast food and you get the news that a new McDonalds moves in next door.

I’ve bought them on 3DS, so I probably won’t buy them again.

@Ooyah I guess I can’t complain about the games not transferring, since you bought them individually on the 3DS. A discount would be nice, though.

@AG_Awesome I don’t think they reuse puzzles, but I could be wrong.

My only (minor) problem with the modern Picross games is that they use a lot of shaders and colors to make the picture after you finish it. Sometimes nothing is recognizable, even toward the end of the game.

It’s good to see. I hope other companies do this with their 3DS games in the future.

Wonder if this will finally shut Jupiter Corporation up. JC were complaining about Nintendo not reaching out to them to do a Picross game for the series anniversary, will it looks like Nintendo finally did so now they should had nothing to complain about. Not sure why they even complain to begin with since there's like 14 other Picross games on Switch already.

@Pineapple_Mohawk Honestly I think the only game that could knock Silksong off my most anticipated game pedestal would be a Picross 3D on Switch. I'm not even joking!

Also, excited to finally get Picross e9. Never understood why that one never left Japan.

…I bought them all in March. Oops.
Eh, the 3DS is better as a portable, anyway. It’s harder to take a Switch to a place of work.

@SuperCharlie78 well, I do get that some might be more fun in terms of interface etc, but I've played some really good free picross games on my phone and I don't think anyone would have issues with that quality, honestly.

Maybe it's some difference a picross noob like myself doesn't see

This is how I feel the Picross e and Picross S games should've been released, a standalone game that keeps getting DLC and updates. I'm ok with themed games getting individual releases, though.

I'm currently playing through Pictlogica FF on my 3DS (well, when it lets me, I'm up to over 300H+ delay between stages, and there's no way to buy Kupo Nuts now that the shop is closed), but I would love them to port it to the Switch!
Has anyone tried Logiart Grimoire yet? It looks nice! I would definitely buy the Switch version, I'm not used to playing Picross games with a mouse/keyboard.

Twilight Princess Picross?

Then when this port comes to the next console, it’ll be called picrossssssssss

@Princess_Lilly Admittedly, I'm quite the pro player lol. I'm quick and very expert. Free nonogram games can be fun and I've tried many, but Jupiter's original Picross series is on another level of polish. To me, at least.

Aside from e9, I already have these on my 3ds. I can't see myself buying them again unless a compilation is released physically.

I agree with other commenters that non-Picross nonogram games I've tried have never had the same level of puzzle polish. But I wish Jupiter would make some more Picross games with more to them than just the plain puzzles. I got bored of the S series after a few games. When I played the old Super Mario Picross through NSO, that really entertained me a lot more despite being a much older game. Having Wario "take over" the game was really fun. Pokémon Picross was also interesting with the different Pokémon having various abilities, and there being challenges to complete for each puzzle. Just want something more involved or with a "purpose" like that but also the Picross polish/puzzle quality.

Why Am I shaking? haha I love me some picross games

I think I'll just get the base game and Picross 9, since that's the only way for me to get acces to Picross 9.

The series has been milked completely dry though. I have all the Switch entries minus 1 or 2, but have still to play most of them.

@SuperCharlie78 well, I just get bored with picross quickly since it doesn't really give me much of a challenge. The only one I bought was Kemono Friends one because I want to support the franchise however I can plus it's adorable

Welp, who wants to start off the meeting?

@Aelynn I've been playing Logiart Grimoire for around 10+ hours now (since the day after its launch), and I've fallen in love with Picross all over again. Emil (the wizard) is adorable too.

That said, I've played several Picross games in the past and never got around to finishing a single one lol (mainly due to some tricky 20x15 puzzles near the end); hopefully Jupiter's Steam title will be the first one I'll actually finish.

Regardless, there's a high chance I'll probably grab S+ at some point. Can't argue with more Picross after all.

@Shadeon_Koopa That's great to hear! Picross games with some sort of added storylines are always better than just a bunch of puzzles lined up, but you're right, can't argue with more Picross.
