<p>Is anyone excited over the 3DS Augmented Reality Games?</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not. They seem lame. I cannot imagine who would spend money on these things.</p>
<p>They don&#8217;t seem like games. They seem more like &#8216;science experiments&#8217;.</p>
<p>I wish the resources were instead used to make actual games. I can&#8217;t imagine anyone spending more than five minutes on any of these &#8216;AR cards&#8217;.</p>

<p>PSP already did this augmented reality stuff. It didn&#8217;t work. Why is Nintendo wasting time and resources doing it?</p>
<p>Everything makes sense if you look at the 3DS as designed to kick the PSP out of the handheld market.</p>
