Sony: Nintendo Shouldn't Bash 3D Glasses

I'm just referring to the image hit, a little vengeance for Sony, Nintendo bashing the glasses and having to use them too if it wants 3D on its next home console.   

Nintendo doesn't use shit.  They make a system that is 3D capable, that is it.  Its up to TV makers and consumers to decide what type of 3D will be displayed.  A game won't be made different for glasses or non glassses 3D. 

I totally agree about this, in the last days I wrote countless times that any game for any console using stereoscopic 3D is totally agnostic with regard to the use of 3D glasses. The hit for Nintendo would be
only to its image, for having bashed glasses, but having to rely on them until glasses-free home TVs become mainstream.

Which is publicly viewed by almost all gadget media with 3 years. Perfect for next gen systems.

Within 3 years the first production model glasses-free 3D TVs will be available for sale, if there won't be any unexpected problems, but how much more time will it take before those techs become mainstream? I know I'll stick to 2D TV until glasses-free 3D TV will be cheap, but people wanting 3D since the start will have to accept glasses for non portable uses for a few years. Their choice, I don't care. And even if Sony will push that tech at full steam, it will still be an expensive niche by the time glasses-free techs start becoming mainstream, so, if a minority of rich enthusiasts is willing to pioneer, why should I stop them? Early adopters help me find cheaper tech a few months or years later, they'll do it for glasses 3D that I don't care about, but they'll do the same for glasses-free, that I'd like, so be they forever blessed and nobody dare stop them!   

And to come back to my point, even in the most optimistic scenario for glasses-free, if Wii2 is launched early, it will have to rely partially or totally on glasses for its first years.
