How do I scan a QR Code?

All you need to scan a QR Code is a Nintendo 3DS and a broadband connection.
  • Launch the Nintendo 3DS and make sure you are in the HOME Menu (the screen you access immediately when you launch the console)
  • Hold down the L or R button briefly to start the camera function (not the same as starting the Nintendo 3DS Camera)
  • Tap the small icon at the bottom left of the touch screen, which looks like a small chessboard
  • Point the cameras at the QR Code and scan

QR Code is a registered trademark of DENSO WAVE INCORPORATED in Japan and other countries.
