Picross DS is still one of our favourite reasons to power up the DS these days, so the news that developer Jupiter is working on a sequel for the 3DS eShop is reason to rejoice indeed.
Titled Picross E, the game is heading to Japanese 3DS consoles on 27th July for just 500 Yen. While we can't imagine it making the most exciting use of the machine's 3D capabilities, it appears to be more Picross, which will do us just fine.
We haven't heard anything about a Western release yet, but we'll keep you posted.

I never played Picross...
Guess it would be a great start with this one.
Yeah, I'm looking forward to this.
I won't get it.
well they couldnt have called it Picross 3D
Awesome! Love Picross.
I'll get two.
Day 1 purchase for me. Picross without having to carry around a cartridge is perfect.
I hope that like the GB Mario's Picross it doesn't show you an icon of each level's picture once completed. This hampered Picross DS' replayability for me.
Me needs this in NA ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1!!!!!!1!!!!!
I'll take all the Picross I can get. I dare not even think of the amount of time I've spent on the 3D version.
Just shoot it straight into my veins, Nintendo.
@Otaku
Nah, Picross 3D 3D!
I second what DarkSquid said.
I loved the demo for Picross 3D, so I'm excited for Picross 6D--I mean, E.
If you could preorder downloads, it'd be done.
Please release Mario's Picross in the States. There's no reason not too
Oh, and release this as well
I've never played Picross, but everyone seems to really enjoy it, so I think when this one comes around I'll give it a shot.
I love Picross, so I guess it will be a worthwhile purchase for me when I get a 3DS!
Now this is what I'm talkin' about, Nintendo.
if we have e-shop cards here in germany when this will be released i will buy it day one.
picross is just awesome.
think i spend half my life playing picross 3D. and i still havent completed all the download content Oo
I've played so much Picross over the last year. From the VC game, to the DS game, to the 3DS VC game, to my iPhone....just one more game...
Awesome, big picross fan.
picross is one of (if not) the only puzzle games that sucks me in and I cant stop playing. This better come out of japan
Awesome, next to Kiby Star Stacker, my favorite puzzle type of game! Does this mean we might see the SNES one in the US?! I wish.
Release it in Europe and there's a 99,9999999999999999 % chance i'll buy it.
Although this one will have to prove that it couldn't just have been done on DSiWare as well. I just
can't . resist . Picross .
@Otaku: Good point.
@darksquid I love that lil movie u posted. lol. Is that Orson Welles?
I can't even imagine how awesome Picross in 3D will be.
Hope this has online multiplayer! Can't Wait!
Awesome, I have been playing picross on my ipad. Now Jupiter is making an official picross and Mario Picross should be coming soon
"Hello? I’ll take 8“
I love Picross 3D, is this one going to similar to that?
@grumblegrumble
Ah... I have no idea! I just kinda stumbled upon it, sorry, I really don't know! xD;;
picross DS is the title that got the most time of my DS AND 3DS. just cant get enough of it.
picross 3d stands proud very near too. the only downpoint ive found is that when im playing another game like GTA chinatown war, i must put picross away from my console. it cant... stay permanent on it...sadly.
picross E is a blessing for me, instant buy !
DO WANT!!!!! I need all the Picross I can get, Nintendo...make it happen!
So, did it come to Japan already? I just had to find this thread again as I wanted to know if I only imagined it. Now it would be good time to announce the release date for other countries.
Yay! Got all the other Picross variants so far but more is always good
I hope it uses spotpass to download more puzzles.
It was Already Realised in Japan yup there are already more than 14 games avaiable in e-shop in Japan too.
Shame on you Nintendo I want some games too ghaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
