Somebody posted a thread recently about 3D LCD screens in a handheld and suggesting Nintendo might put it in the next DS. It wasn't exactly 3D, but a layering of translucent LCD screens to produce several 2D layers. Combine that with integrated, accelerated head tracking as seen in the DSi and you could craft a mighty powerful 3D illusion that the DSi can't do, I reckon.

If true, that might be way cooler than regular 3D TV with glasses.

I did expect that this meant to be some kind of '3D', but not what you might think first. Otherwise pointless, when you have 3D TV in your living room.

that approach is like "backwards" 3d, pretty neat. I wonder how noticeable the 2d layers will be to the human eye. I'm hoping it won't be like those crazy stickers that kinda stick out when you move to certain angles.

It sounds like you won't be able to see the depth of certain objects like you would when wearing those damn glasses.
