Pokemon Dream Radar Review | New England Gamer

Nate writes - "The Pokémon Dream Radar is a new side series game released through the Nintendo eShop for $2.99USD. Taking advantage of the 3DS’s gyroscope feature, this game is a brand new concept in the Pokémon series. It is very rare to find a side series game that allows you interact directly with the other Pokémon games from that generation, and this is the first one that doesn’t require you to have another system to connect them (Assuming you have a 3DS). Also a first for this game is the ability for a Generation V game to recognize a Generation IV cartridge, also allowing you to collect special Pokémon when they are inserted into your 3DS. Previously this was impossible due to the fact that both generations are made for Nintendo DS and the DS has only one cartridge slot. Pokémon Dream Radar is a point-and-shoot game that allows you to catch many Pokemon from the new extended Unova Pokédex as well as the new therian formes of Tornadus, Thunderus, and Landorus and send them"

This was addicting, although I went the cheating route and finished the game in less than two days. It's very fun if you don't do what I did...

Too bad you can't trade the Therian forms though, I didn't want them, and wanted to give them to my friend oh well.

That's interesting, I never knew about that other game.

I completely forgot about Dream Radar until now!

Invizimals actually did this before Pokemon in 2009

"Unlike Pokémon however, Invizimals requires the player to hunt and capture these creatures within the real world, using the concept of augmented reality"

Pokémon Dream Radar - 3DS Download Review

"Having previously used photography as a basis for a spin-off, Pokémon Dream Radar is holistically in the same conceptual ballpark as fan-favourite, Pokémon Snap, this time using augmented reality as its main mechanism. The difference here is, Snap had an all-encompassing vision, while this...this just reeks of being a tremendous afterthought. Regardless of whether you're a fan of the franchise or are looking for a generally good AR game, it doesn't make a lick of sense how Pokémon Dream Radar could be viewed as anything but a bare cash-in." -- Wiiloveit.com

Pokémon Dream Radar review [Nintendo Insider]

Nintendo Insider writes:

As an assistant working for Professor Burnet, the player must aid her research studies by using a Visoscope to investigate the Interdream Zone. Whilst doing so, the Nintendo 3DS camera is employed to transform the environment around you, providing a backdrop in which you must use your light beam to shoot Dream Clouds that randomly populate the area.
