About this game
Picross 2 is the Japanese-only sequel to the Game Boy puzzle game Mario's Picross .
Your goal is to reveal the hidden picture inside each grid by chipping away the correct squares.

Clues along the grid's edges help you figure out which squares should be chipped away, and which should be left alone.
The puzzles are much more advanced than those in Mario's Picross ; easy puzzles are in a 15x15 grid, while standard Picross puzzles are four 15x15 grids connected together, solved one section at a time.
Picross 2 has two modes of play: the first, Mario's Picross, has you solving Picross puzzles with Mario.
In this mode, the timer ticks down from 30 minutes, and you must solve the puzzle before the timer reaches zero.
If you chip away an incorrect square, you incur a time penalty (first two minutes, then four, then eight).
After solving a certain amount of puzzles in Mario's Picross mode, you can play Wario's Picross.
In this mode, the timer starts from zero and counts upwards.
There isn't any time penalty for your mistakes, but this also means that you do not know which squares are correct and which ones are incorrect until the puzzle is complete.
About Nintendo 3DS
The Nintendo 3DS (2011) added glasses-free stereoscopic 3D and a second analog input to Nintendo's handheld line, eventually building a library that rivaled the DS in size and quality. Because the eShop for digital purchases has since closed, physical 3DS cartridges are the only way to preserve access to many titles — a dynamic that's pushing more collectors toward cartridge-based copies even for games that were originally digital-first.
Gamevaro tracks Picross 2 for Nintendo 3DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Picross 2 to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This 3DS release dates back to 2012.

Condition matters a lot for collector value: loose (cartridge/disc only), complete-in-box (CIB, with original packaging and manual) and factory-sealed copies are tracked separately because the price gap between them can be significant, especially for older releases.
