The '''Nintendo 3DS''' is a handheld game console | The '''Nintendo 3DS''' is a handheld game console developed by [[Nintendo]], released on {{date|26|February|2011}} in Japan, {{date|27|March|2011}} in North America, {{date|25|March|2011}} in Europe, and {{date|31|March|2011}} in Australia. It is the primary successor to the Nintendo DSi, and was first revealed at E3 2010. While the design of both systems are similar, the 3DS features a control-stick style button known as the Circle Pad, and is more powerful internally. | ||
The main gimmick behind the 3DS, like its name suggests, is its ability to display images in stereoscopic 3D without the use of 3D glasses. The top screen is the only one with the 3D feature, while the bottom screen is a touch screen similar to the original DS models. While most games do not incorporate the 3D feature as a gameplay mechanic, it is regardless available for use. | |||
Various variants of the 3DS were released after the original console, creating a family of systems. These include the 3DS XL, with a larger screen, the 2DS, a flat version without the 3D feature, and the New Nintendo 3DS, a slightly upgraded version. Almost all 3DS games work with all models of the system, and it is also backwards compatible, meaning games for the DS and DSi are still playable on the 3DS. | Various variants of the 3DS were released after the original console, creating a family of systems.

Each card shows a Pikmin of the same color on it. Along with the Pikmin AR Cards, one could also get a code for "Photos with Pikmin" or "{{j|いっしょにフォト ピクミン|Issho ni Foto Pikumin}}". With the software, AR pictures can be taken. Unlike the bundled AR Cards, these can be freely moved around, and the Pikmin will interact with them accordingly. For example, if the card is held upside down, the Pikmin will hang onto the card before falling down. By blowing into the microphone, more Pikmin can be spawned. Blowing with the maximum amount of Pikmin on the card will turn it into a different whistle. This whistle will organize the Pikmin into lines. One can also set a timer for when they want to take a picture, along with being able to change on-screen effects for the picture. The ? card bundled with the 3DS will show a [[Bulborb]] when used with this card set. The Bulborb will chase after the Pikmin if they are close enough. This game and the Japanese Pikmin AR Cards have an official website at [https://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/dl/jawj/ https://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/dl/jawj/]. The cards and software have not been released outside of Japan. | ||
