OMG Aero said:Why is this a killer app for me? It's just a Pokedex.
I hope it isn't like the Unova Pokedex on the official website that specifically doesn't include certain late game gen 5 Pokemon like Volcarona and the legendaries you can obtain after beating the game.
Neo Child said:Also, since this won't be able to be opened mid-game I assume, isn't this a bit useless because most of the time you'd need to open it while you play Pokemon - so you'd have to quit the game, open this & load it back up. Would work well if the 3DS could multi-task.

If they manage a game with all the Pokemon to date rendered in 3D, able to battle it out on your table top using AR cards, that would be absolutely awesome.Teknoman said:Man...Pokemon 3DS is going to be insane when it hits. I wonder if you'll be able to use the AR cards with them too? Make for some more nice VS shots.
Morokh said:And quite a good way to make more casual people 'learn' about all the 3DS can do and most of all it's online capabilities !
Soneet said:This is pretty damn exciting. Not that I care that much about a Pokédex (I do have Pokémon White though), but that we just get free stuff on the 3DS. If Nintendo (and hopefully other companies) keep this up, it'd be interesting how much of an entertaining device the 3DS becomes.
If it sells over a million, it's casual.swerve said:PokeMon is casual? Man, I *never* get these definitions right.
$200 said:Cool. Now integrate this with AR. Infinite profits.
But have you seen how deep the game is? It's definintely a hardcore seriesLuigiv said:If it sells over a million, it's casual.

BooJoh said:I seriously doubt the 3DS could differentiate between the vast number of Pokemon cards with the lousy cameras it has.
Besides, what's the point in having a TCG on a handheld if the entirety of the actual gameplay is done with real cards, and the system is just a $250 window to see pokemon rendered on top of said cards?
It can differntiate millions of QR codes. Pretty quickly and painlessly too I might add, you don't need a high end camera for that sort of thing.BooJoh said:I seriously doubt the 3DS could differentiate between the vast number of Pokemon cards with the lousy cameras it has.

i will be sad the day these replace sprites[/QUOTE]
Hopefully they will get rid of the horrendous high pitched sound effects while they are at it.
rpmurphy said:Nice app. This explains though why TPC is sending arund C&D's to shut down mobile Pokedex apps like PokeDroid.
I totally had one of those. Such a badass toy too bad I lost it.Mista Koo said:I've just remembered these:

From the Source: "The app will use the 3DS's built-in Augmented Reality capabilities to display Pokémon in pictures taken via the 3DS Camera."$200 said:Cool. Now integrate this with AR. Infinite profits.
Showmeyamoves said:Indeed.
However I'm thinking this need to be AR.
It is destiny for it to happen. That or Nintendo wants to miss out on tons of potential cash.

More like a Mario Channel with all Mario games.Futureman said:
First e-shop screen? Can't see much but I don't think anyone has mentioned this in here.
A "Mario" app?

It has been mentioned before in this very thread, and, no, it isn't the first eShop screen.

Would they even be able to pull off 3D depth in any way with sprites? Serious question.Zomba13 said:So... 3DS Pokémon to be fully 3D?

Looks fine and easy to use actually, much like Wii menus. That drop shadow is probably "below" the internet stuff that are above the "Main menu" text.Michan said:
Nintendo is terrible at UI design, and it shows here.
They even placed the white drop shadow above the "Main menu" text, despite it being below the "Balance" text.
