Nintendo Sets May 28 Launch for Pictonico, a Photo-Based Mobile Mini-Game Collection

The free-to-start app leans on user photos to personalize quick, comic challenges.

Overview

  • The game launches May 28 on iOS and Android, with pre-orders live on the Apple App Store and Google Play.
  • Players use pictures from their camera roll or snap new ones in-app to turn faces and scenes into fast, WarioWare-style microgames.
  • The download is free to start, with a small sample available before paid content unlocks the rest.
  • Nintendo says the collection will offer up to 80 mini-games in total, while it has not said how many come in each purchasable volume.
  • VGC reports early pricing of $5.99 for Volume 1 and $7.99 for Volume 2, though Nintendo has not posted a breakdown.
