Nintendo: “Pokémon Dream Radar,” “Pokédex 3D Pro” & “Pokémon Black/White 2″

[ES]: En unos meses, los fanáticos de Pokémon estarán felices al poder obtener las secuelas y nuevas aplicaciones para su 3DS. Por medio de la tienda eShop, Nintendo estrenará Pokémon Dream Radar y Pokédex 3D Pro. Y para los que quieren la continuación de los últimos juegos de la franquicia, Pokémon Black versión 2 y Pokémon White versión 2 usarán funciones específicas para el 3DS. Si eres un Poké-fan y no tienes aún un 3DS, considera lo siguiente.

La aplicación Dream Radar permitirá a que los jugadores usen diversas funciones del 3DS (el uso de la cámara, tecnología de realidad aumentada, control de movimiento) para atrapar a los Pokémon y descubrir a los que están escondidos. Los jugadores moverán el 3DS para apuntar y disparar rayos a los Pekémon para atraparlos. Los datos de aquellos Pokémon se podrán transfer a los juegos Black 2 y White 2 para que formen parte de su equipo. Algunos Pokémon pueden ser aquellos que son difíciles de conseguir.

Pokédex 3D Pro es una versión actualizada y completamente mejorada de la aplicación original Pokédex 3D. Tendrá datos de más de 600 Pokémon que han aparecido en los juegos, comparado a los más de 150 de los que se tiene ahora en Pokédex 3D. En esta ocasión, la aplicación te dejará tomar fotos de los Pokémon por medio de las capacidades de realidad aumentada del 3DS. Con el Pokédex 3D Pro, todos los Pokémon conocidas estarán disponibles desde el comienzo que servirá como información vital para las aventuras en Black 2 y White 2.

 Pokémon Black Version 2 y Pokémon White Version 2 llevarán de regreso a los jugadores a la región Unova dos años luego de lo sucedido en la primera versión de Black y White. Al volver, los jugadores se darán cuenta del cambio radical en los nuevos juegos. Hay que descubrir a que se debe tal transformación después del triunfo contra el equipo Plasma.

Y si quieres tener a uno o dos Pokémon legendarios, presta atención. Cada uno de ellos vendrá según su versión: Black Kyurem en Pokémon Black 2, y White Kyurem en Pokémon White 2.

Con dos aplicaciones y dos versiones para escoger de la próxima secuela, parece que será un año muy interesante para la franquicia.

POKÉMON DREAM RADAR AND POKÉDEX 3D PRO COMING TO NINTENDO ESHOP FOR NINTENDO 3DS THIS YEAR

Downloadable Titles Provide New Ways for Players to Learn About and Catch Pokémon Found in Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2

REDMOND, Wash., May 15, 2012 – Two new downloadable Pokémon titles are coming soon to the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS. Pokémon Dream Radar and Pokédex 3D Pro will both release in fall 2012, giving players new ways to catch and learn about their favorite Pokémon, while expanding the overall experience for those that choose to play the upcoming Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokemon White Version 2 games on the Nintendo 3DS.

“2012 is shaping up to be a great year for fans of Pokémon video games,” said Scott Moffitt, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “Not only can players look forward to a successor to one of the biggest Pokémon adventures ever, they can also enjoy two other titles that add to the Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2experience, helping to expand their enjoyment when playing on Nintendo 3DS.”

Pokémon Dream Radar lets players use several different features of the Nintendo 3DS system, including the Nintendo 3DS camera, motion control and augmented-reality technology, to catch Pokémon by moving the Nintendo 3DS to discover hidden Pokémon. Players can catch the Pokémon by moving the Nintendo 3DS to aim and shoot beams at them. Caught Pokémon from Pokémon Dream Radar can be transferred into Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2, helping players build their roster of Pokémon. Pokémon Dream Radar also includes some hard-to-get Pokémon, giving players even more incentive to catch them for their game. Pokémon Dream Radar will be available exclusively for purchase via download from the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS.

Pokédex 3D Pro is a fully enhanced and upgraded version of the original Pokédex 3D application. It includes detailed information about the more than 600 Pokémon featured in the history of the Pokémon video game series. Pokédex 3D Pro also includes in-depth sorting, comparison and ranking tools, as well as comprehensive details on what abilities each Pokémon can learn and how it evolves. Additionally, the application includes extensive augmented-reality capabilities, including the ability to take photos of Pokémon in the real world. With Pokédex 3D Pro, all known Pokémon are unlocked from the start, allowing players to access a wealth of information that will be useful as they play through Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2. Pokémon Dream Radar will be available exclusively for purchase via download from the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo 3DS.

Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 bring players back to the Unova region two years after the events of Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version. Players who are familiar with Pokémon Black Version and Pokémon White Version will immediately notice that the Unova region has transformed significantly in the new games. Embark on a new adventure starting in the new Aspertia City and discover what strange events are occurring and why the Unova region has changed two years after Team Plasma’s defeat.

Players can also look forward to two new Legendary Pokémon, Black Kyurem and White Kyurem, which are featured on the games’ packaging. Each of these powerful Legendary Pokémon boasts new devastating Ice-type signature moves; Black Kyurem knows Freeze Shock and White Kyurem comes ready for battle with Ice Burn. Black Kyurem will be available exclusively in Pokémon Black Version 2, while White Kyurem will only be found in Pokémon White Version 2. Developed for the Nintendo DS family of systems, the games can also be played on the Nintendo 3DS system in 2D mode.
