Photos with Mario

The system's first entirely Mario-centered application, (Japanese:いっしょにフォト スーパーマリオ Photo Together with Super Mario) is a photography application compatible with special Mario-themed AR cards, developed by the same teams behind Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario 3D Land. The application and cards were released in Japan on April 23, 2013. The cards come with special Nintendo e-Shop prepaid cards, also including a QR code on the prepaid card to download the app from the e-Shop. There are six cards to be released, two for each price point: a Goomba and a Koopa Troopa with 1000 yen cards, Mario and Luigi with 2000 yen cards, and Bowser and Princess Peach with 3000 yen cards; while Mario, Princess Peach, and Goomba were released with the app; the others are set for a later release.
The app features the ability to move the characters away from the AR cards and place them anywhere to take a photo. Additionally, placing multiple cards in one frame causes the characters to interact with each other in some way (i.e. the Goomba charges Mario but gets jumped on); the ? Block card is also compatible with the app, which creates a Warp Pipe that provides a different reaction with each character the card interacts with (with Mario and Peach, a Toad emerges, and with the Goomba, a Piranha Plant emerges; if multiple cards are in the frame, the question card shows only a pipe). The player can also cause several effects to happen on-screen, such as blowing bubbles, causing a gust of wind, causing it to snow, and having party poppers go off.
