What was Sony supposed to do huh, stick 3D TV Sets on top of their PS3 models?

Sony will be first to the market with 3D gaming. Sony have been the ones pushing for 3D for a long time now.

Don't act like that isn't the truth and all of a sudden Nintendo are the 3D gaming pioneers.

You do also know there are TVs releasing that require no glasses right?

By the way, I still think this new DS is absolutely fantastic and I will be picking it up on day 1, especially if this E3 showing blows my mind like I expect it to.

No actually Nvidia are the first to market with effective 3D gaming for home based systems. Nintendo will be the first to market with handheld 3D gaming (in an effective form) as well. Sony will be behind the 8 ball for the remainder of the generation because whilst the PS3 can do 3D, it cannot do effective 3D as it currently exists. It would be a gimmick with only a select few titles supporting the technology.

According to who? I thought it was already established the PS3 can effectively do 3D, and very well too.. Will it be a gimmick? Probably, but with the 3DS being announced, I honestly doubt sony will let nintendo take the spot light on 3d gaming. Since they are pushing 3d tvs this summer.
