3D is a gimmick and most of the awesome 3DS titles got delayed so no I don't have one. NGP looks nice though.

Comical.

And this might upset a lot of people.

It's region locked. And if you try to run pirated games on it. You may own a brand new paper weight.

it seems like a huge waste of money, considering nintendo releases a new ds system like every year.

Ha ha, oh Japan. :wub:

As for the 3DS, I've hard that people have been having trouble getting the 3D effect working so I definitely won't be getting it. Plus, I already have a DS Lite. Nintendo's turned into the Apple of the gaming world. :wub:

I have no problems seeing the 3D effect, it just didn't work the way I thought it would. I suspect this is what people are claiming "not being able to see the 3D effect" means. It works like you have to look straight onto the 3D screen (like 90 degrees if you know what I mean) for the 3D effect to work, not with just any angle.

Either that... or they simply don't see it.

I honestly hope you don't think the 3D effect is the only difference. It's more of a gimmick. It's a entirely new system. Don't think it's just a new version of the DS. This is a new generation. Not just a design change.

The 3D can be turned off. There is a slider that lets you adjust the affect to whatever you want it to be.

Right now the real problem is, it has no games. So there isn't much reason to buy one unless you are some major Nintendo fan.

Aside from that we probably all know how Nintendo is like. It's just like the Wii:

20 million people want the 3DS. 4 million people now got it, and it's probably going to take Nintendo at least half a year before the next shipment arrives in stores.

Sounds like this is Nintendo's very own Playstation 3.

Speaking of the PS3, how big is its game library now?

Google's been lagging for me as of late. Plus, I heard they hide certain results and not show everything that's out there on the Internet so I don't feel it's that reliable in showing everything there is on the Internet.

Actually, I'm quite curious about squeenix's recent port of FF III to the apple OS, and how a jrpg might play on a finger-touch system. I think a port of IV or VI that I can play with updated graphics on my phone would probably preclude me from needing to pick up a 3ds for the forseeable future. Also, too many remakes on the 3ds...the ds had very strong third party support but it seems like a lot of developers aren't ready or are adopting a wait and see approach for Nintendo's latest handheld.

They are going to be installing 3D screens in phones soon too. Though I personally don't want to see the death of the handheld.

Oh no! We can't delete our own posts anymore? D: How will I cover up my double posts?

Because they don't know what to do anymore. We have technologies in development that if they'd improve and make practical would change everything we know about gaming. I don't want to stare at the screen anymore. I want to be placed in the world. It's becoming more and more possible. 3D depth technology is one small step towards that. Maybe one day we will see a fusion of the 3DS and the Virtual Boy. As well as a very advanced version of the nia Game Controller, Maybe.. Or the next generation will be the same boring graphical upgrade, with all the features of everyone's favorite handheld... the PSPgo.

I think as far as games are concerned it's the same reason why the Move/Kinect were developed, it's becoming more difficult to develop games under tens of millions of dollars already, and 3D gives the console companies a half step to lengthen the life of their existing platforms without having to radically change the game detail/resolution that the developers have to work with.
