Face Raiders? Again, what's the with all the porno sounding titles and features?
- Software coming with the system. Activity Log application that tracks movement and virtual action. What games you're playing and how long. Plus a pedometer. That movement earns you play coins that you spend in apps or games for bonus content.
- MiiMaker feature. Similar on Wii console. But you can use the 3D camera to take your own photo, and a prelim Mii will be made. You can then adjust from there. "Making Miis has never been easier."
- Your Miis can be swapped via the StreetPass functionality, with your system in Sleep Mode.
- Automatically swaps Miis with people you pass on the stree? Everyone stop making Satan and Hitler Miis!
- Those Miis will gather in a StreetPass plaza, and you can find out where that Mii is from and what "game" that Mii was "playing."
Augmented reality cards. Thinks Invizimals. Models pop up, anchored around the card.
ARGames - You view your world through the camera and racing levels will be created for you to play.
