Today, Ubisoft announced a demo for Rayman Origins on Nintendo 3DS is now available to download in the Nintendo eShop. Play Rayman Origins and discover the magical universe and legendary gameplay that captured the hearts of millions of fans.

The newly released demo includes three unique fantasy levels including Swinging Caves, Playing in the Shade and Shooting Me Softly. Players can launch the demo with no time limits, challenging their previous score and time attack records by collecting more electoons and exploring new adventures each time around.


The eShop has once again revealed next week’s additions. Game & Watch Gallery II will be available as a Virtual Console title while Snakenoid Deluxe will launch as a DSiWare game.



More 3DS Augmented Reality games could be in the future, if a new patent is any indication.

The Nintendo-filed patent is a concept in which colors influence the game world.

It mentions a few examples as summarized by NintendoLife:

“For instance: your character stands on a red cube, with a huge gap before the next gap. Grab a red background — paper, clothing etc. — and line it up between the cube to create a bridge for the happy chap to wander over.

“Another example features a fiery pit. No problem — point your 3DS cameras over a blue surface and it’ll create rain to extinguish the flames.”

The question is, will we see this patent materialize into an actual product? Or is this just another protective filing?
