AR Card

AR Cards are plastic cards that the Nintendo 3DS uses as position trackers for . Many augmented reality experiences on the console use them, requiring specific AR Cards to be in clear view of the outer cameras.
Only the image on an AR Card is important, though the size and material of replacement AR Cards can impact readability.
Six AR Cards are bundled with the Nintendo 3DS: the "?", Mario, (Toon) Link, Kirby, Samus, and Pikmin Cards. They are respectively labeled A-1 through A-6. The "?" Card has a ? Block symbol, and is used to start AR Games.
Some games use additional sets of AR Cards. Others, such as Face Raiders and Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity, use none.
