I just had an awesome idea. Imagine this: life-sized augmented reality 3D pokemon battles..........
Pure bliss!

Naw, dude. Naw....

DUEL MONSTERS! lol.

Imagine us FINALLY actually being able to play with expensive holographic technology.

Seriously, though, 3D Pokemon battles would be cool.

Not to be an ass or anything but does this really count as "news"?

Yeah, I'm kinda disappointed that Nintendo didn't give any Pokemon AR cards with the 3DS. Well, at least we got Pikmin!

Therefore is it not possible in a future software update for the system to do this with any 2D image? Example, if I was to put a photo of a friend of mine in front of the system, would it be able to generate a 3D model of her?

The 3DS has programmed character models to be shown when certain figure is detected by the camera. That's how this kind of AR works. It is kinda possible given the depth perception the 3D camera has that if your friend steps in front of the frontal cameras (not a photo), the 3DS would detect some facial details and such and generate a very rough model. But it's highly unlikely.

But out of a 2D image? No. I almost can assure you it's not possible.

im guessing the extra large cards will make the AR Games themselves a lot larger in appearence as well? So we could have 'life sized' target practice? or does it just work with the AR Cards with 'statues' of the characters?

that would be really cool, like a full size dragon xD

EDIT: Someone try this out with an A0 piece of paper >

I should tape two of these cards over my nips to create boobies.

Life size pikmin would be extremely tiny.

actually the regular cards probably give a pretty accurate pikmin height

Well, that would depend entirely on how big you think Olimar is.
Personally, I think he's the size of my thumb. So making a life-sized Pikmin wouldn't be all that difficult.

Sweet. I saw someone proposed the idea, and I'm glad someone did it.

This is like Invizimals... but better.

Someone needs to do this large scale. I'm talking about a 500 foot Mario statue in a persons back yard.

chyyran · Mar 1, 2011

This is awesome, I was expecting it to just be normal sized. Can't wait to get my 3DS.. Now how am I going to print out a giant ar mario card...

I wanna see what happens when he plays shooting games with that huge "? Block" card.

Life-size dragon?

Depending on the size of the card, you could have a ten-foot dragon in your room (well, it wouldn't fit in a room. You'd have a 10ft dragon in your driveway). You'd have to actually run around it and shoot. Awesome

totally agreed, but if you make it so big that you have to use it outdoors, people who can see you will think you've gone crazy. Running around with your3ds pointed up at the sky xD
