interesting that Netflix doesn't steam 3D though.

I have somewhat assumed that the Wii U controller will be capable of displaying glassless 3D as long as the console is not displaying anything on the tv screen. (you know, render both screens to the Umote to create the 3DS effect...)


but with no ability to stream 3D movies maybe not after all.


netflix does not, but others have started so it means the tech is there. Netflix probably does not see the value yet as 3d tvs are not that widespread just yet.

So there is hope yet. But I do not if the wii U screen is capable of 3d display.


Hey that is encouraging, sweet.



Maybe Netfix will launch 3D streaming to coincide with the 3D capable Umote launch, one can hope. 



I've heard nothing about Umote 3D to be clear, just seems like they are leapfrogging the need for HD tvs by packaging thier new console with a built in HD screen, why not do the same for 3D.
