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. 

I bolded the first thing you said? Doesn't matter... forget about it...

I don't say that your logic doesn't make sense. But as I said glassless TVs exist, just to promote them would be stupid. So what else can Sony (and every other TV manufacturer) promote? 3D TVs with glasses is the answer. But it's not like Sony says: "you will always have to wear glasses to play games and watch films in 3D". When/if the problems with glassfree 3D TVs are solved you will still be able to play these games. So... Sony is also supporting 3D in general, but like every other manufacturer they have to sell TVs with glasses, of course.

Anyway, I don't really understand why so many people (I don't mean Nintendo) bash Sony. Buying a 3D TV and playing games and watching films in 3D will always be optional, so if people don't like it they just shouldn't buy it. And in my opinion Sony doesn't make a bad move with supporting 3D right now.

i'm not saying sony is being dumb or any other company doing 3D glasses.  At moment it is only viable option and only NEW upgrade really for tv's over high definition.

I am merely under belief that if 3DS didn't get announced and doesnt' become a hit, that 3DTV's with glasses would say by 2015 have a 25% penetration, still pretty small, due to expensive and most content with HD and also many dont' upgrade sooner than 10 years on tv's. 

But now with the IDEA of glasses free that 3DS will put into people heads SOME will be taken away from that 30% and now I see that 2015 figure being something like 15%.  No they are not replacing their home theatre viewing by sitting around with 3DS watching movies, they are just waiting out the technology and are totally content with HDTV's right now.  Might change quick, but right now there is like nothing in 3D, so why get a 3D tv.  The then hassle of glasses and glasses cost, not to mention the TV costs. 

this whole don't bash glasses by sony is just them goiung "oh shit, instead of selling a bunch of these FILLER tv's until we get glasses free tv's out we are going to be selling a lot less of them, due to the IDEA of glasses free"  The 3DS is not a substitute it is an idea, and that idea is what is counterconstructive towards Sony's and many other TV makers near financial future of glasses tv's.

and screw analysts, they always think some new expensive amazing technoology is somethiung tha EVERYONE will get.  they are morons.
