RE: Nintendo 3DS - Goemar - 03-26-2010
... explain how?
I'm talking 3D - out of the screen 3D, not 3D as in polygons.

then I guess I misunderstood that part.
carry on then.
RE: Nintendo 3DS - Goemar - 03-26-2010
Well as the DS can already do polygons I'm pretty sure the 3DS will be, you know, 3D. And thus assumed that we were all talking about the same type of 3D.

Do you expect any less from Nintendo?
Game Boy Family:
Game Boy (GB and GB Pocket) -> GB Advance (GBA, GBA SP, GB Micro)
Nintendo DS Family:
Nintendo DS (DS, DS Lite, and DSi/DSi XL) -> Nintendo "3DS" ("3DS"...)

Apart from similarities in names alot of these consoles are different.
[Gameboy - GBC and CBP] Are the same console
Now for an entirely different console with the same name
[GBA - SP - GBA Micro]
And again
[DS - DSL - DSi - DSi XL]
And the 3DS has already been confired to be a new console with different hardware to the DS. But with backwards compatibility.
Waiting for 3DS lite...
RE: Nintendo 3DS - Goemar - 03-26-2010
Did anyone even buy the GBA Micro? I guess now that the new DS systems can't play GBA games it actually has a use.
But this will be the 5th DS. There were 2 GBs, 2 GBCs (if the GBC Light counts as a different system) and 3 GBAs. And the GB, GBC and GBA were all different consoles, not just simply upgrades.
Now if the 3DS (what a crap name, doesn't even make sense) is a new console and not just another DS then it'll be a new family in my eyes. But still, they really are just cashing in on this. Making things smaller, bigger, with a camera and now with 3D. And I bet my left testicle that this still isn't going to be as powerful as the PSP.
Looking forward to the DSiXL-Lite, the 3DS-Lite, the 3DSXL and the 3DSXL-Lite. What's next, the DS-Pad?

What Nintendo say and what it turns out to be are two different things though. I'm still guessing that most games will be for the DS but will have "special enhancements" for the 3DS.
RE: Nintendo 3DS - Chaoxys - 03-26-2010
You do know that the 3DS is just a temp name right? Also, it was stated that this will be a new console.

Nintendo already stated it will be as powerful as the gamecube. And that was more powerful than the PS2 so it should be better than PSP.
RE: Nintendo 3DS - Goemar - 03-26-2010
Nintendo also states that a DSi-XL is a must by. Excuse my lack of trust in Nintendo.

It's marketing. Microsoft says the ZuneHD is a must-buy and Apple says the iPad is a must-buy.
Marketing is not development. If Nintendo says it's a must-buy, that's Nintendo Marketing saying it. if Nintendo says it's as powerful as the Gamecube, that's Nintendo Development saying it.

3D + DS= 3DS
It seems to run 3D, and is a DS.
It makes sense
RE: Nintendo 3DS - Vipershark - 03-26-2010
actually the zunehd is a step up but the rest of your argument is sound
RE: Nintendo 3DS - Sengir - 03-26-2010
I couldn't think of any other second-rate electronic device at the moment.
RE: Nintendo 3DS - Vipershark - 03-26-2010
Goemar, might I ask before we continue arguing if you even read this thread or any of the articles?
The 3D aspect aside, (since we don't know how it'll work yet) this is confirmed to be a completely new system, aka the next gen DS.
RE: Nintendo 3DS - 17 kids - 03-27-2010
