Hold on, just let me get my time machine and I'll get back to you.

Seriously it's too soon to make any justified comment. It LOOKS interesting, but until I actually get to play it I must reserve all judgement.

I'll still get it though, because it's Nintendo, and it's a handheld, and they've never went wrong with a handheld. Plus I need my Pokémon fix.

I think it looks pretty decent. The amount of classic remakes it's getting means it can't be that bad! Plus, if the 3d effect sucks, or is painful long term, it can always be turned off. I just hope it doesn't cost too much Anything over £200 ($305)for the standalone console would be far too expensive. It may be ultra-snazzy, but it's a handheld, that will likely get bumped and scratched and will likely need to be replaced in 3-4 years.

So far it looks great. 3D photos will rock as soon as the 4th of july hits again i mean 3d fireworks to stare at when it isnt the 4th of july i mean cool.

Remolay · 07/07/2010, 07:10 am

I am unable to judge yet. When it was initially announced I was certain that it was a horrible idea. After the E3 presentation I want one. That is not to say it is any good.

As I stated in another thread, the thing is a bonafide beast. Graphically it is stronger than the wii & is capable of nearly match SOME PS3/360 games (that is if the screenshots don't lie)... but in the end it will come down to the games being made for it (which if, you look at the list, are for the most part incredibly strong titles. As long as it stays in the $150-$250 range I am a guaranteed buyer.

*bubbledncr* · 07/07/2010, 11:05 am

I personally don't care much about the 3d effect - its the remake of Ocarina of Time that sold it for me.

Yeah, but can it produce better graphics than my toaster?

...sure it can. Oh! I get it! You're talking about 80s games on the PSN store and Xbox Live Aracade!

I got it at a garage sale for $5. It makes toast. Have you ever seen the Wii make toast?

But can your toaster brush my teeth? Didn't think so.

Wait, I thought we were comparing consoles based on what kind of food you can prepare with them. Isn't that why they say the PS3 is the best?

It's definitely interesting, although I think I'll wait until some more interesting titles are announced. Remakes of N64 games aren't that exciting so I'll stick with my old, pink DS for a while longer.

I personally don't care much about the 3d effect, or a remake of [blasphemy]one of the worst Zelda games ever made[/blasphemy] either.

Ocarina of Time 3D is going to be awesome. I loved the original and I'm going to love the remake even more.

benzelz · 07/07/2010, 07:01 pm

The 3D effect looks cool, but how exactly will it work. I mean, I could play a game at any angle, so how would it know what angle I am playing the game at. It might be annoying playing games in 1 angle.

Elvenmonk · 07/07/2010, 09:06 pm

3D effect would be cool if it's as great as Nintendo some some reviewers say it is. However just a new DS that's not a slight upgrade makes it better.

Is that a joke?

This is an in-game screenshot of the MGS game on 3DS. I compared it to a screenshot of a MGS game on PSP and this is LEAGUES ahead in graphics.
