In basic terms, the 3DS is an inferior 3D experience

Well, except in terms of color saturation, light levels, cost and 3rd party software support. ;)
If the massmarket adopts what Nintendo's vision for 3D is, they won't settle for glasses based solutions. They'll wait it out, keep their HD TVs they just bought instead, and upgrade when the technology eventually meets their needs at a reasonable pricepoint (ie: glassless 3DTV).

Well, what really matters is that the actual 3D is better on a big screen! Also 3rd party software will be far superior with 3DTV if you count all TV channels and their 3D content. (Not sure if you class that as software?).
People will settle for glasses due to many, many advantageous of watching on a TV compared to a small gaming screen. Also, glasses aren't a huge deal to many/most. Those who buy DS's and TV's are very different people - they want different things.
Also, it's going to be too long imo before glassless 3DTVs are produced and available to the masses.
It's only logical to think that if someone plays a 3DS and are impressed, that they are then far more likely to invest in a proper 3DTV.
It's not logical to think that someones experience with a DS will put them off buying a TV.

are you a moron, nobody is saying 3DS will replace home entertainment at all. We are just saying the 3DS's idea of glasses free will hold people from purchasing a 3DTV until it is glasses free.
They aren't going to be buying their movies for 3DS, they will stilli buy them for their 2D HD tv's, they just won't adapt to 3D home entertainment due to thinking of "sooner or later a glasses free TV will be out"

But they won't, that's the huge point.
You are all thinking way too specifically - such a small % of TV buyers will have actually played the 3DS. And the 3DS' 3D will not be as good as that experienced with glasses at the cinema - so people will be in the mindset that if a glassless screen comes out it will have an inferior 3D experience.
Really, few going to hold off buying a 3DTV for over 5 years based on an inferior 3D experience they had with a gaming console and based on no evidence that glassless TV's are even coming out.
Yous do have a point and it will be true for some, but really the number of people that will be put off buying a 3DTV because of the 3DS is so tiny in the scheme of things that it's not even worth discussing.
And the moron bit was uncalled for, but I don't report.
