| sethnintendo said: wtf is a 3d TV (I know it does 3d or whatever but I really don't see the point, will you be able to view sports game in 3d, even if you can I really could care less) and I highly doubt they will be that widespread in 3-4 years. People just bought LCD and plasmas recently. Most people won't buy another tv if they bought one recently for 4-5 years at the very least. Personally, I am happy enough with my old school HDTV that is a fat CRT. Plasmas and LCDs break so easy or things go wrong in them usually within 3-4 years. They are pieces of unreliable junk to me. CRT TVs last way longer. If you bought a plasma or LCD I hope you bought an extended warranty for it. |
My 32" LCD HDTV is going strong for 3 years now. Will be upgrading in about 3-4 months to a 47" LCD HDTV. Not 3D. And you may be right, it could be even longer than 4 years before 3D capable TV's are common, I was just saying that if that is indeed the technology they are waiting for, then the "NextBox" isn't going to be coming out anytime soon.
Also, NJ5, I do not know what basis the 1Up report had, but it was my understanding that 1UP simply speculated entirely on Shane Kim's statement while this new article claims to have some inside information and cites their past achievements at getting the news on other important developments before others.
