Nintendo Announces New Mobile Game That Turns Your Selfies Into Minigames
"Pictonico! was co-developed by Intelligent Systems, the studio behind the WarioWare series of games, and that influence is clear from the minigames Nintendo has teased so far. The main difference is that Pictonico's minigames pull faces from your photos, warping real people into its absurd minigames."
"When setting up the game, you can either snap a photo in the moment or pull an existing picture from your gallery--meaning friends, family, or even your favorite celebrities could be subjected to the indignity of starring in a WarioWare-style game."
"Pictonico! will feature 80 minigames at launch, and is described by Nintendo as "free-to-start." Free play is limited to just a few minigames, with the rest of the games available to purchase in two separate sets. Volume 1 will cost $8, while Volume 2 goes for $6--refreshingly offered as a single purchase, not an ongoing subscription."
"There will be multiple ways to play Pictonico!, from a stage-based progression mode, to the "Score Attack" challenges that include increasing difficulty, a high speed mode, and a sudden death challenge."
Pictonico! is a mobile game releasing May 28 on Android and iPhone. It converts selfies and existing gallery photos into quirky minigames with warped faces based on real people. Setup allows taking a new photo or selecting an existing image, enabling friends, family, or celebrities to appear in the gameplay. The game is co-developed by Intelligent Systems, known for the WarioWare series, and features 80 minigames at launch. It is described as free-to-start, with limited free play and the remaining minigames sold in two one-time purchases: Volume 1 for $8 and Volume 2 for $6. Multiple modes include stage progression and Score Attack challenges with increasing difficulty, high speed, and sudden death.
