Nintendo 3DS

[JustinRossTso]

Hey everyone, I'm pretty sure everyone knows that the Nintendo 3DS has come out in Japan already and soon to be in America in the following month.

What do you guys think of it? Do you think you are going to get one? Do you think that it will be like the first DS and have a DS Lite come out half a year after it?

Some of the titles that we are going to see with the 3DS are 2 Resident Evil games (one based on mercenaries mode), Street fighter, Dead or Alive, and even Metal Gear Solid 3 Snake Eater.

I don't think there is any 3DS threads yet... so I find it sorta weird.

Yeah, the Resident Evil stuff seems like it would satisfy people's zombie killing aspect of a gaming console ;D!

I probably will buy 3DS, but not for now, I will wait till the prices decrease. 3Ds will cost around $450 or $500 here

There are good games to be released, 3DS have great chances to be so well succeded as DS.

Considering 3Ds power, it probably can run some Wii games with appropriate adaptations, I hope that Nintendo release some Wii games for 3Ds like The last Story, Metroid Prime 3 and Super Mario Galaxy.

Other 3DS atractive is the retrocompatibility with DS. I didn't play some Dragon Quest games, now I can see a chance to play it. Of course, I'm waiting for new RPGs with incredible graphics, I want to see 3Ds running games at maximum potential.

I played with it - and will probably buy it in the next week or so, if only for the novelty value... (There are no games out right now or coming out very soon that interest me.)

The 3D effect is pretty interesting. Nothing "jumps out", instead there is added depth to the screen, making it seem like you are looking into a box instead of at something flat. I was impressed that it *didn`t* make my eyes hurt, like all the other 3D technology I have played with so far.

I also have to say that I`m pretty impressed with Nintendo for making the 3D an option and not a requirement for play. My son only has one properly working eye, so 3D that is forced on you sort of drives me crazy. I had to try to keep him from crying when his kindergarten had a "3D movie" day... and with the glasses on, everything just "looked red" with no coolness. *sigh*

Well I'd absolutely love to!

But alas, I had to pick the No/Maybe option because I really don't have the money right now, and to be honest I'm not really into the DS console.
The 3DS looks really good though, so if I did get into the DS then I'd probably go for this one.
But for now it's a bit too much money to sink into something I might not like. :/

:O... I'm sorta scared that it will make my head hurt , I'm not that great with 3D stuff myself. I also had a pretty traumatizing 3D movie experience as a kid, so that doesn't help. Oh, so it's not really 3D in that sense, but 3D as in depth. That's really cool! I guess that's called thinking outside the box (or inside the box in this case :P).

That's not fair for your son. I'm sorry he couldn't watch the 3D movie, but I personally dislike 3D movies and even 3D books, it makes my head hurt. I think it will be fine without 3D . Who knows... 3D might actually have bad side effects, and your son will be unaffected ! (sorry if that thought is sorta dark at the same time).
