Switch definitely seems capable of emulating 3DS especially the standard version but will 3DS games support upscaled 3D output to a tv or will the 3D output simply be removed completely and effectively run as if on the 2DS?

Alternatively perhaps if the Switch supports a VR headset (still grasping at this) then all 3DS games would be a perfect fit for this.

I'm a big fan of 3D output but 3D sales have never been that high and with LG now stopping supplying passive 3D panels to third party TV companies there is only a choice of the inferior active 3D or a higher end LG tv for 3D support.

Suspect gamer's on average will be more likely to have a 3D tv but still probably the ratio is likely quite low.

I have;

Passive 3D 4k tv in living room (budget set but brilliant)

1080p passive 3D set in bedroom

active 3D Epson 720p LCD projector

So would it merit supporting 3D tv's or are they obsolete anyway?
