Konami's New Augmented Reality Dating Sim for Nintendo 3DS

Konami who has given the world classics such as Contra, Castlevania, and Metal Gear is launching a new game this Valentine's day in Japan. Called "New Love Plus Date Anywhere Collection" it features a new augmented reality ability for their New Love Plus dating simulation game for Nintendo 3DS. This augmented reality game uses the camera on the 3DS to capture the environment and overlay a digital anime character for a virtual date. The video at top shows off what the game is like at the Konami Storefront, Sensoji at Asakusa, and Shibuya. The original game already has its own 3D generated environment controlled by the tilt of the 3DS. Here's a look at the original non augmented reality version released about a month ago in Japan.
