Tagging.

Plus Lego City Undercover is way more open world then any game I have seen on the PS3 & 360. So the 3DS is already an official 8th Gen Video Game System.


Have you seen GTAV?

COP had the best visuals on the DS by far. a full city with reflections.smoke and other effects running flawlessly at 60FPS

Don't you mean 30 fps per screen?

The DS had a Refresh Rate of 60, like the PS Vita.

The 3DS has a Refresh Rate of 180.

The 3DS was already at it's limits when it came out at launch so how much power was there left to even squeeze out ?

If by launch you mean one year after, then sure.

One can possibly sqeeze a little more juice out of it, but we'll see.

I agree the DS is 60 refresh rate.

Just make sure to say so on other threads, so no one can deny it.

There isn't a single console in video game history that's had launch software even come close to pushing the hardware anywhere near its limits. You'll have to wait a good few years for that to happen, always have done and always will do. What a ridiculously dense statement to make lmfao. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that this was a poor effort at trolling rather than you really being this unintelligent lol.

3DS could get more shooters.



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

@Everyone

Honest to god the 3DS isn't anywhere near an impressive piece of equipment. You will never have games that will likely go above PSP graphics or performance because of the fact that nintendo made 3D a mandatory implimentation to the system that isn't even twice as powerful as the PSP was. So if I were you guys I would focus on the games because the 3DS isn't capable of all too much considering metal gear ran 20fps compared to the more smoother 30fps on the PS2.
