You do know that it was written "Tentative name" so it might not be the real name actually.

yeah i know, but then why call it 3ds.....

hmm unless it's 3dScreen.

I'd thught they were just doing a mishmash of 3d and ds. Well, I thought I remember hearing that it was going to have 2 screens (the ds2, not the 3ds), so, if the ds2 is infact the 3ds, then it is a mishmash.

They called it 3DS for 3Dimensional Screen, not 3 Dual Screen like the actual DS. They'll probably change it before E3.

no, it's 3d dual screen.

It's a mashup.

If it has two screens, it's a dual screen.

In English, we sometimes eliminate letters in acronyms that are reproduced because they sound better.
