3DS

Nintendo’s first, original eShop release seems to be a new title called “Pokedex 3D.” I’m not quite sure where this information originated from since Nintendo has yet to make an official announcement. Having said that, this does appear to be the real deal. We’ve posted the first screenshots and details for you below.

– Contains all new Pokemon from Black/White
– Look up information about the Pokemon including their moves all for free
– Over 150 Pokemon
– SpotPass support
– Uses Augmented Reality
– Begin with 16 Pokemon
– Unlock more by scanning QR Codes, SpotPass, or by trading data with friends (most likely through StreetPass)
– SpotPass limit is three random Pokemon per day
– View the Pokemon in 3D
– Rotate them in full 360 degrees
– Pokedex has filters and bookmarking functionality
– Augmented Reality: Display Pokemon in pictures taken through the 3DS camera

This information comes from FIFA 12 3D producer Matt Prior…

“We are not utilising StreetPass but we’ll have a day one kit and roster update to make sure we are fully authentic for the new season and SpotPass is one of the ways that you can download the update.”

“We looked into all of the unique 3DS features early in the development cycle but with our first foray into Fifa on the 3DS we wanted to make sure we got the fundamentals right and focused on getting the core game solid while at the same time innovating in key areas. We did this by developing a lot of content and modes and developing the gameplay with unique 3DS features which we have done with the addition of touchscreen shooting. We wanted to focus on getting those things right and creating a very solid and fun gameplay experience.”

SpotPass is something that I’ll always welcome in 3DS games. But it’s truly a shame that FIFA 12 won’t have any online multiplayer support. That’s been a feature that fans have been accustomed to seeing in sports games.
