hi guys, just a tought!

 

Is Nintendo forever going for a "3D" handheld? Or the 3DS games are going to be the rarest Nintendo games ever and non back compatible with future generation?

 

Any ideas?

Since the market at large doesn't care for 3D, it comes down to costs to include it in future handhelds and Nintendo's love for 3D.

Besides, so far there isn't a single 3DS game that cannot be played adequately in 2D mode, so backwards compatibility shouldn't be an issue regardless of the inclusion of 3D or lack thereof. A more interesting question would be if all future Nintendo handhelds will have a clamshell design and two screens.



Oh My God, yes.... you are so smart... how on earth are they going to do a touch screen compatibility for non touch screeen consoles?

I was thinking the same thing after reading Rol's post.

You have to admit though that the design is nice to have considering it protects your screens (except apparently my 3DS bottom screen smudges the top sometimes but no biggie).  The design has worked pretty damn well for them since the GBA SP.
