Topic: giant AR card in this month's Nintendo mag in the UK

anyone got it? What's your thoughts?

I never buy the mag, as i use this site for all the news & reviews. Should I bother?

The AR card is amazing and it has a Pokedex 3D marker on the back but it is up to you if you get it.

I just got mine yesterday. It is really cool. I took a picture of my daughter with her life size Mii and we were all cracking up. The other side of my Giant AR Card is Mario. Also took some pictures with him being life sized. Besides, it was only 200pts. You won't be disappointed. And, you can play all the extra games the original small card has, like the dragon fight, archery, fishing. I had a dragon last night in my dinning room. It was great !!!

well, you do make a compelling argument for it.

wow, that sounds amazing. Is the card from the US Club Nintendo the same as the one being given away in the UK with the Nintendo magazine?

I don't know, i've heard some say that you can do the Pokedex3D, i can do Mario and i think i saw where someone said they had Metroid. Not sure if it depends in the country you're in. I'm in the US. I'm kinda glad i got Mario, not a Pokemon fan. Metroid would've been good too.

NGamer already did one of those. I've got it on my table at the moment, but I haven't got round to playing around with it yet.

And like you, I too read this site and subscribe to a magazine, and I'm happy with that.

The particular magazine I subscribe to has been with me for many years, and I've seen it go through many staff changes, but it still has the same humour that I have enjoyed since first buying it 13 years ago.

The thing is amazing, especially for playing Archery and the like. The Club Nintendo version comes with Mario, btw.

I have no idea how to use the Mario side

I got mine in the mail but this thing is just "Giant". I was barely able to do the shooting gallery even from having it on the floor.

I just ordered one the other day, and got an email telling me it's been shipped. Can't wait to stand next to my life sized me. n_n

Just go to Star Pics.

@Retro Don'y you need the ? side at the same time?

@Khaoz Go to Star Pics with the ? side up until Mr. AR shows up to control. Flip over the card to the Mario side and Mario will replace him.

@kid
No, first look at the ? side then when all the options come up select Star Pics. Then wait for the little box guy to come up. When he does just simply flip the card over to Mario and he'll come up. It doesn't matter if the ? side is on screen at the same time or not.

I live in the UK and I subscribe to the magazine and the giant AR card is great but not as practical as the smaller ones sometimes its hard to get it to be bright enough as you cant just shine a desk lamp over it. Makes a great poster though

oh butties, I just saw the new issue in the shop today. I guess I missed my giant AR card window
Maybe Club Nintendo Europre will start offering one in a few years
