Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 3DS makes portals out of globes
The new Pokémon Mystery Dungeon coming to 3DS is stepping up the visuals, this Japanese trailer showing off a dramatic improvement from the last entry on DS. Of course that's not surprising given the new hardware, nor is the inclusion of some recent Pokémon. But taking photos of cups, globes, and lamps to open up in-game portals? Yes, that one is still surprising. Apparently anything round does the trick for the 3DS camera – so much for our Pikachu slippers idea.Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Magnagate and the Infinite Labyrinth, to give the game its full translated title, comes to Japan later this year. There's no word yet on a Western release.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 3DS comes to Japan this winter
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon is coming back with a new 3DS game. Pikachu and pals go exploring again in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Magnagate and the Infinite Labyrinth , coming to Japan later this year. As Serebii reports, the game uses the system's 3D and augmented reality functions.It's the augmented reality features that sound the most interesting. Using the 3DS' camera, players scan real-life objects to unlock portals, or 'magnagates', and these portals take you to dungeons in the game. What you should scan and why remains unclear, but we're definitely going to try our Pikachu slippers (yes we actually own a pair).There's no word on any Western release date, but previous Mystery Dungeon games came to our shores between six months and a year after being released in Japan.
