it would look better if the entire thing was blue.


While I do like the blue one better, I do agree that the whole thing should be blue. I wonder why Nintendo went for the black inner upper top screen.


To enhance the color effects in the 3D screen apparently. Theres less "noise" from a pure black background, so the 3D effect, and its detailed color, etc, is enhanced slightly. It was a similar decision to why the 3D screen isn't touch compatable.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
