Also know as: ピクロスNP Vol.8
Picross NP Vol. 8 (Japanese: ピクロスNP Vol.8) is a logic puzzle game, developed by Jupiter Corporation and published by Nintendo. It was available on the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in Japan in June 2000 exclusively via the now defunct Nintendo Power service. Players used to be able to purchase a blank SF Memory Cassette or GB Memory Cartridge, and then download games on to them in Lawson stores across Japan via the Loppi machines for cheaper than the recommended retail price. Picross NP Vol. 8 was the eight and last game in a series of Nintendo-themed Picross games, which were not released in standard cartridge form, and were exclusive to the service, and were only for the SF Memory Cassette, not the GB Memory Cartridge. The Nintendo Power service was discontinued on February 28, 2007. Picross NP Vol. 8 focused on Donkey Kong Country-themed puzzles.
