huh?




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Mighty curious about this one And man, this E3 will be a balst of both Nintendo and Sony will show off a new handhels, and whata surprise would it be is MS would eneter to into the real fight ( and not jut WM7 ).



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

It should be interesting to see how they implement this ... I didn't read through the patent that someone mentioned earlier, but I wouldn't be (that) surprised if they simply used several mostly-transparent LCD stacked together with a think piece of glass separating them. With the technology that is being developed for bendable lcd screens, there might be some very inexpensive displays that could be used to do this mainly because they are inadequate for what they’re being designed for.

While this would (obviously) not be true 3D, with a two screens you could have a limited effect, with 3 the effect might actually be pretty decent, and with 5 or more it could be quite nice. Of course, with this approach the screen would have to be thicker than a conventional LCD screen would be; and I’m not sure if you could really do this with a portable device.



Nintendo has been spending hundreds of millions of dollars on R&D for each of the past few years.

Did anyone actually think the vitality sensor or motion plus was sucking up billions of dollars in research money?



Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

F-Zero 3DX plz!  I'll also take a Mario Sunshine port.

Back up!



Color restrictive 3D should not be included in these conversations, it's like comparing black and white to color TVs



Just waiting for that PS Vita to come out so I can play some full featured games on the go with that beautiful screen and control scheme...

ok, Nintendo started 3D, but failed. Sony is pushing it again, and Nintendo has joined the party.

I changed it.

Personally, I would say that nothing Sony has done really relates to what Nintendo is doing here (even without knowing the technology behind it). First off, the PS3 simply doesn’t have the processing power to produce games at (what we consider) PS3 quality while supporting stereoscopic 3D and HD resolutions; so it is fair to say that Sony has yet to release a 3D capable gaming system. Beyond that, releasing a 3D display that doesn’t require glasses is a pretty major innovation; and doing so in the handheld market space is unique. If the display technology actually works well, it could change the direction of 3D television (making Sony’s 3D displays obsolete) if it can be adapted to that market.
