Nintendo 3DS

[berrylarry200]

We all know that the 3DS's graphics capability is better than the Wii's but they both have the same number of bits which is 128 bit. The 3DS can create graphics that look like PS3 and Xbox 360 graphics ( Both have 360 bits ) but it doesn't have the same amount of bits as they do which limits the graphics of the 3DS and makes it a bit less powerful. ( No pun intended =P ) Here are 2 trailers of 3DS games that show what the 3DS's power can do.

It does seem nice, but I think MLYW may have better sources than BL, so I guess we'll have to wait what MLYW says.

It looks great so far. I'm happy that Konami is releasing MGS on it.

I'm going to look at a demo to see if it's worth buying. Don't wanna sell all my games for nothing.

Uh, MLYW isn't the supreme law of the land here, hate to tell you that.

Anyway the 3DS is the most desired electronic hardware in the current market. Here is the survey proving it.http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2010/09/06/nintendo-3ds-most-desired-gadget.aspx

Instead of posting a bunch of specs, just compare all these games to Super Mario Galaxy. The 3DS doesn't need extremely powerful specs anyways because it's handheld and not played on a large TV.

The graphics look like a good ps2 game. I'll get the system but when should it be released?

It should be released sometime in March 2011. Which is good at least for me for Spring Break. Even though I have 4 day weekends.

One in Amsterdam, one in New York City

Nintendo's presence at this year's Consumer Electronics Show will unfortunately be missed, certainly on the show floor at least. However, that doesn't mean Nintendo is ignoring western gamers' thirst for 3DS details because the company has scheduled two press events to take place in the United States and Europe early next year.

On 19th January, previews will be held in New York City, and Amsterdam to allow media outlets to get some hands-on playtime, with The Big Apple getting a special presentation from Nintendo of America's President Reggie Fils-Aime.

Nintendo Life will be at the Amsterdam event which should be the time and place to finally get pricing and other launch-related details. Will the system be region-locked? What sort of a price-tag and range of launch titles are you hoping for?

It looks like we'll be getting more information about the Nintendo 3DS for the United States, such as the release date and price.

I'm going to guess same price as Japan ($299) and released near the end of the month.

Also it'll probably be on my birthday list, I'll just save up for some games. :/

 

[berrylarry200]

Now some 3DS games are available to pre-order. They are around the same price of brand new DS games which makes life easier.

I don't like how they've put the one analogue stick on the left side of the DS, how are left handed people like me supposed to use the stick and the touch screen at the same time.

Use your right hand.

Can't, my right hand is utterly useless for anything that requires even the slightest bit of coordination.
