3DS presents Bubble Pop World

                Recently it was announced that a game called Bubble Pop World would be coming to Nintendo E-shop. What’s so special about it? It takes advantage of the 3DS augmented reality function which has not be used in many games. Some examples include Kid Icarus Uprising, Kingdom Hearts, and Pokemon Dream Radar, but all those games were few and far between so it’s easy to forget it even exists.

So for those who kept the cards that game with your 3DS you’re in luck because once this game is out using the question block card you can play a puzzle game where you shoot bubbles to make matching pairs. Seems simple enough, but you can also play mini games and create your own puzzles which can be shared using a QR code.  So it’s good to see that the AR function of the 3DS is still being used. It is an interesting idea that can really be expanded on.
