I just thought of something for a moment: just image Nintendo announces their next home console with 3D support in a few years. Now think about it for a minute... yes, you got it, you WILL NEED GLASSES! I know something for sure... Nintendo-only fans will praise Nintendo and say that glasses are ok. (btw: I consider myself a Sony AND Nintendo fan)

Funny... isn't it.

Seriously, that's the reason why they shouldn't bash glasses. Of course I don't think Sony should complain about that because they bash other companies and things as well (motion controls a few years ago, for example), but that's how PR works today, it seems...


i will never praise glasses, if their new consoles supports 3D i am still not goiung to have a 3DTV until it is glasses free

and your wrong on your point, nintendo would not be promoting/supporting 3D glasses, they would be supporting just 3D.  How you view that 3D is up to you.  Sony on other hand MAKES 3DTV's and GLASSES, thus they promote them.

Bolded: Well, seems there are still reasonable people. Anyway, I don't have a problem with glasses right now and I won't have one in the future.

But you're second point is not fully correct. If they support 3D they automatically support 3D with glasses. That's simply because you won't be able to buy 3D TVs which don't require glasses on the mass market and these will still have the problem of the viewing angle (you have to sit exactly in the right viewing angle). The technology that is used for the 3DS is already used in TVs, Sony knows about that technology as well just as every other TV manufacturer, but with these problems you just can't promote them right (it would actually be stupid).

i don't know what you bolded cause nothuing seems bolded, but just because their new console that would support 3D and said they won't release or use 3D until 30% market penetration, doesn't mean they Support Glasses.

They support 3D, that is it.  what you saying is like if someone makes a game for the wii that is porn, that nintendo supports porn.  no they don't.  or a tv maker puts out a tv and you can hook up vhs, blue ray, dvd, laser disc, ect.  yes they support all those formats in the sense of one definition of support, but they are not promoting the use of one over the other.


Any 3D conosle, hell 10000 years in the future could be hooked up to an old tv that uses glasses, does that mean that console maker SUPPORTS or promotes in this case definition wise glasses?  no, it is just an option that you can do.  Nintendo would be supporting 3D, that is it.  It is up to the consumer what type of 3D.  Just as sony's ps3 supports 3D, you can play iit on a glasses free 3d tv too, just sony is promoting glasses since they make them.
