===AR Cards===
===amiibo===
The New Nintendo 3DS design is compatible with [[amiibo]], which can be scanned in by placing the base of the figure on the lower screen during certain moments in compatible games. The original 3DS is not natively compatible with amiibo, though an accessory to scan the figures is sold separately.
 
===''AR Games''===

[[File:Kirby AR Card.png|thumb|200x200px|The Kirby AR Card]]
The Nintendo 3DS has built-in software to "read" AR cards, initiating game stages or 3-dimensional character animations. The cards included in the 3DS package feature a Question Block from the ''Mario'' series, [[mariowiki:Mario|Mario]], [[zeldawiki:Link|Link]], [[Kirby]], [[metroidwiki:Samus Aran|Samus Aran]], and [[pikipedia:Pikmin|Pikmin]].
This software features several Augmented Reality games that use the 3DS camera and some AR cards bundled with the system. The cards include a Question Block from the ''Mario'' series, [[mariowiki:Mario|Mario]], [[zeldawiki:Link|Link]], [[Kirby]], [[metroidwiki:Samus Aran|Samus Aran]], and [[pikipedia:Pikmin|Pikmin]]. There is also a mode for taking photos with these characters, who can be placed in a variety of poses.
 
===StreetPass Mii Plaza===
StreetPass Mii Plaza is one of multiple software preloaded with the Nintendo 3DS, meant to incorporate the StreetPass feature. Other players met through StreetPass and Nintendo Network compatible games are introduced into the StreetPass Mii Plaza. It is possible to view several attributes about players, such as their favorite title. The music will change depending on how many players have been gathered. Included in the StreetPass Mii Plaza are minigames known as Puzzle Swap and ''Find Mii'' (''StreetPass Quest'' in British English).


In December 2011, a system update introduced new puzzle panels, collectible hats and a sequel to the original ''Find Mii'' game, known as ''Find Mii II'' (''StreetPass Quest II'' in British English). ''Find Mii II'' is only playable after completing the original ''Find Mii'' game twice.
===''StreetPass Mii Plaza''===
''StreetPass Mii Plaza'' is a pre-installed collection of mini-games that incorporate the StreetPass feature. Other players' Miis met through StreetPass and Nintendo Network compatible games are introduced into the Plaza and can join the player in completing these mini-games. Miis can be dressed in a variety of hats or outfits that are unlocked through the mini-games, and it is possible to view several attributes about their players, such as their country or state of origin, their favorite hobbies, and their most-recently played software. The Plaza's background music will change depending on how many Miis have been gathered.


===amiibo===
Originally, ''StreetPass Mii Plaza'' only included two mini-games: ''Puzzle Swap'' and ''Find Mii'' (''StreetPass Quest'' in Europe). New content was added through system updates, including new ''Puzzle Swap'' panels, Mii outfits, ''Find Mii II'' (unlockable after completing ''Find Mii'' twice), and several entirely new mini-games as paid DLC.
The New 3DS design is compatible with [[amiibo]], which can be scanned in by placing the base on the lower screen during certain moments in compatible games. The original 3DS is not natively compatible with amiibo, but an accessory can be bought to compensate for this.


===''Puzzle Swap''===
====''Puzzle Swap''====
''Puzzle Swap'' has the player exchanging 2 Play Coins for one puzzle piece, or obtaining one puzzle piece from another player met through StreetPass through the "Collect New Pieces" option. The puzzle pieces are added to panels representing a certain game or Nintendo series. The player starts with a single Puzzle Panel. It is normally impossible to unlock pieces for another puzzle panel without interacting with another player, however certain puzzle panels such as ''[[icaruspedia:Kid Icarus: Uprising|Kid Icarus: Uprising]]'' were available through promotions.
''Puzzle Swap'' has the player collect pieces of "puzzles", which are large image panels featuring various Nintendo characters and games, either by selecting a piece from the visiting Miis' collections or by exchanging 2 Play Coins for a random piece. Once all pieces of a puzzle are collected, it becomes an animated diorama. New puzzles were periodically added through updates, which usually offered players one free piece to get their collection started.


One of the available ''Puzzle Swap'' panels is a 5x3 piece puzzle based on [[Kirby]]. Kirby poses on a field while a [[Parasol Waddle Dee]] can be seen falling in the background. There are also puzzles themed to specific ''Kirby'' games: ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'', ''[[Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition]]'', ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'', and a puzzle dedicated to both ''[[Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe]]'' and ''[[Kirby Fighters Deluxe]]''.
One of the original seven available ''Puzzle Swap'' panels was a 15-piece (5x3) puzzle based on ''[[Kirby's Adventure]]'' Once completed, it shows Kirby posing on a field while a [[Parasol Waddle Dee]] can be seen falling in the background. There are also puzzles based on [[Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition|Kirby's 20th Anniversary]] (40 pieces), ''[[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]]'' (40 pieces), ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'' (40 pieces), ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]'' (15 pieces), and a 24-piece puzzle dedicated to both ''[[Kirby Fighters Deluxe]]'' and ''[[Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe]]''. Kirby is also present in puzzles based on ''[[Ultimate NES Remix]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS / Wii U]]''.


===''Find Mii''===
====''Find Mii''====
