Europe gets Picross 3D
America gets Glory of Heracles, WarioWare DIY and Pokemon Silver/Gold remakes.
I can't see how we're (NA) is getting screwed compared to Europe. Its not like Picross 3D won't be popping up in April or something.

you know, i got the JP import pretty much day one, and i am still playing it to this day... and i am still on new puzzles...
I think I'm nearly done - and mind you i don't play for HOURS every day. but I do probably give it about 20-30 minutes a few times a week.
my point is this game has kept my attention and has a wealth of content. enjoy europe!
i like it much more than your standard 2d picross as well. just saying.

You guys need to seriously lower your expectations.
It's an alright game, but nothing more. There are too many flaws (notably that it's pathetically easy) for it to be any better. You'll enjoy it for a time, but it's really boring past that. You don't really solve puzzles, you just go through the motions until they're done.
There's going to be a lot of disappointed people when the initial charm wears off.
None of that applies if you love Picross DS, because clearly you have low standards anyway

Why would anybody be excited about this if they didn't already love Picross?toythatkills said:You guys need to seriously lower your expectations.

And then the LORD David Bowie saith to his Son, Jonny Depp: 'Go, and spread my image amongst the cosmos. For every living thing is in anguish and only the LIGHT shall give them reprieve.'
That's not true at all, they're unique games but they share the same basic logic principles.toythatkills said:

Gamestop has it listed for $20 on pre-order. Awesome price if true.

Blimey, that post was from months ago.mattiewheels said:
You misunderstand.
While you're wrong and they don't really share the same logic principles (Picross DS brazenly includes guessing as a feature of its puzzles) that wasn't my point.
Picross DS controls horribly to the point of being unplayable, for the most part, if you want to use the stylus. So liking Picross doesn't mean you'd like Picross DS. I certainly don't.

Man, it just bugs me that Nintendo listed this for Q4 2009 originally in the US, and now it's been delayed at least four months even though effectively the same version came out only three months after Q4 2009.

This game rocks! Got it a few days ago, just as brilliant as Picross DS (Though that strange cube duck character is just plain creepy :lol)

toythatkills: oh, so you specifically mean picross ds and not just picross in general. Ok. And I always figured that guessing was never a last resort, that you always had everything you needed to solve a puzzle in the clues.

I completed every puzzle and not once did I have to guess. You just did it wrong.toythatkills said:

Seeing as it hasn't been posted yet, I thought I'd share the box art.

Makes sense, since Picross DS was also sold for $20. Still, that's a great price.

If you class not playing it as "doing it wrong," then I guess you're right :lolJive Turkey said:
I would hope there would be NO guessing at all. The whole thing about Picross is that everything should be solveable using just pure logic and different techniques. Same goes with Sudoku and other logic games. If there is guessing in this I might have to pass, though I would really like a new Picross game to jump intotoythatkills said:

Uuuuuuugggghhhhhhhh, I want this so fucking bad.
Are there any other Picross-like DS games? Aside from the original Picross DS, of course.

You need to find a copy of IllustLogic/Colorful-Logic for DS!
It has more puzzles than Picross DS in the Illustlogic half, and Colorful-Logic adds to the difficulty by making you solve the puzzles in color.
There's a version available for Wii also, but I haven't played that one so I don't know much about it. It may have the exact same puzzles as the DS one.
