AR Games is a built-in software application on the Nintendo 3DS. It uses the six AR Cards bundled with the console in thirteen augmented reality games that the player progressively unlocks. In addition to using the Mario Card, AR Games features various Super Mario characters and assets.

Games with Super Mario content[edit]

Star Pics[edit]

Star Pics shows 3D models of characters on top of their respective Character Cards, including Mario. The models can be manipulated, such as by changing their position, size, and pose, and then photographed.

When Mario emerges from his card, the first two measures of the "Ground Theme" from Super Mario Bros. play. Parts of this theme are also used for the game's background music. Mario can be posed to stand (as depicted on the AR Card), sit, fly (like from a Launch Star), jump, or run. The sound effects accompanying these poses are from Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Fishing / Fish Gallery / Free Fishing[edit]

The Fishing games feature multiple Super Mario items and enemies that can be caught and collected as "fish".

A Blooper and a Lakitu appear randomly, and the Lakitu will fish the Blooper (which the player can also catch) out of the water.

If lightning strikes the water, the player can catch a Fish Bone.

If the AR Card is placed on a red surface, the player can catch Cheep Cheeps and Green Shells.

Fish Gallery[edit]

Graffiti[edit]
