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.

Sony promotes them because it wants to sell 3DTVs now. Anyhow, most people won't buy 3DTVs with glasses, it will be a niche. But a rich one and not just Sony, but most TV manufacturers want a slice of that pie, despite they perfectly know that most users, like you and me, will be totally fine with 2D HDTV until glassesless 3D will be mainstream. Remember also that whatever regards stereoscopic 3D and is different from displays, that is cameras,media, consoles, players, recorders, ets, can be developed without any problem and without waiting for glassesless big 3DTVs, when they'll be ready, all the other stuff will be compatible with any newer stereoscopic display tech. This means that the industry has a big incentive to market also the glasses based niche to make it as big as possible, to drive all the other stuff's sales instead of having to make them wait for a single remaining piece of the tech to be ready.

Cinemas and cinema sales show that glasses aren't such a big issue.....
