Add 3D into that, and I'd estimate about 5.5 hours. Not bad, but it's only comparable to my 6-year old DS Phat, which has a 6 hour battery life. |
It's a new console. Like the DS, they were prepared to sacrifice battery life for performance down to the 6 hour level. Sony were prepared to go to the 4 hour level with the PSP1. I'm betting on a repeat, followed by a 3DS Lite which is coming no matter what Iwata says now, with more battery life.
