Why Robin Makes Batman Better With “hundreds” of augmented reality (AR) cards being distributed across via special events, magazines, retailers and Club Nintendo, Kid Icarus: Uprising for the 3DS is more than just a third-person shooter; it’s also a collectible card game. Can you collect the whole set?
You’ve bought Nintendo product, registered it online, and collected Club Nintendo coins for your effort. Nintendo repays you with a Metroid screensaver, Donkey Kong posters, and a giant AR card you could have printed out yourself!
When the Nintendo 3DS is looking for an AR Card to start a game, it isn’t searching for or recognising its specific image-it’s recognising a colour, and then spawning whatever comes next off of that. To prove this, AR enthusiast Super Jezmerelda created cards with the question-box design cut out, then framed certain colours within that window.
So, we’ve seen the 3DS’s augmented reality games played on an iPhone, on an Android phone and on a white board. We’ve seen giant cards spawn giant Miis and Marios. Now, thanks to this t-shirt, you may see the AR dragon pop out of someone’s chest.
The 3DS uses small credit-card sized augmented reality (AR) cards for the title AR Games, but Nintendo is currently developing AR cards that are able to reproduce life-sized characters.
