Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire will have limited 3D usage
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 7 Comments
If you’ve seen the teaser trailer for Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire, you may have noticed a small notice tucked away in the bottom left corner towards the video’s end. It states, “Game in 2D. Some areas also playable in 3D.”
You may remember that Pokemon X and Pokemon Y featured some stereoscopic 3D, though some areas such as the overworld did not. It sounds like we have a similar case here with Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire.

Update: Nikkei’s article doesn’t actually say anything about being able to watch videos. Apologies for the confusion!
Original: Nintendo has a Mario Kart 8 web app in the works, according to a report from Japanese outlet Nikkei. It’s primarily designed for smartphones and tablets.
With the app, users will be able to watch videos uploaded from Mario Kart 8. You’ll be able to check the status of friends as well.
