Get ready to see your photos in a whole new light! Nintendo just dropped the news on Pictonico, a quirky mobile game that turns your photo library into a playground of mini-games. Why does this matter? Well, it’s Nintendo’s latest move to mix up the gaming scene by bringing its creative twists to your smartphone.

Launching on May 28, Pictonico will have you washing away embarrassing memories or helping your boss in hilarious scenarios, using 80 different mini-games generated from your snapshots. Think WarioWare vibes, where the games are short, sweet, and sneakily challenging. You can dip your toes in with some free-to-start demos, but if you get hooked, additional game “volumes” are up for grabs between $5.99 and $7.99. Interested? You can pre-order now on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

Nintendo is clearly aiming to spice up its mobile game lineup and attract new audiences. Back in 2015, the late CEO Satoru Iwata mentioned that mobile games are a way to introduce Nintendo’s iconic properties to a broader market. With Pictonico, they’re certainly keeping that spirit alive! If you’re curious about other gaming deals, check out today’s top gaming deals to score some sweet savings.
