I'm sure there will be a bunch of copycat phone based AR games, but that doesn't interest me.

On Thursday, I went to see Nolan Bushnell, founder of Atari and Chuck E Cheese speak. He's excited about an AR headset that comes out next year, and its impact on tabletop games. In tabletop games, you have information available to everyone, primarily the board, any pieces on the board and face up cards. Private information is usually in the form of face down cards. He envisions everyone wearing a headset so that public, private, and team based information could be displayed. He was most excited about the team thing, because it's pretty awkward to implement now.
