LCD huh, well I was hoping for OLED, but that is a bit pricey for Nintendo's taste. Still can't wait to see it functioning.

Wow, this doesn't quite seem like the best idea for a handheld.

Lol, that's what people said about the DS, now look at it

Also Nintendo hasn't revealed its full bag of tricks just yet, they have some things left up their sleeve for E3

Rumors indicate that it is planning on following the first approach, sticking a new, motion-sensitive controller onto an existing console. Our perspective is that this is the worst of the three options.

-Clayton Christensen back in 2007 already knew Move would be a bad idea

woah! hahaha so I guess this time Nintendo are the copy cats? :P

Anywho other than the sarcasm aimed at hypocrites: Good to hear this, I love my DS

Sorry i missed the point did anyone ever made a handheld system with 3D without the need of glasses ?

Well a patent already exists for such a system as mentioned on my thread. As for it actually being implemented this would be the first time for a handheld. There's slot machines that already use this tech however. Once more here's the patent.

"an interactive imaging system with a perception of depth includes at least two screens configured to show a three-dimensional image, where the user can manipulate the image via control means. The control means can comprise touch screen controls, or means adjacent to the screens such as buttons, touchpads or a joystick. Image information may be transmitted over the internet or other communication means. Applications include computer games and simulators. Advertising messages may be displayed on one screen while images are being displayed on other screens".

"What have i done.? Is it too late to save me from this place? From the depths of the grave? We all are those .. who thought we were brave."

Rumble woot

Improved wireless speed - can not say I have every used that part of my DS

hell ya tilt motion control bring me on some new Kirby games!!

Analog stick I will be interested how they do this. I hope it is still foldable I really liked that about the DS I also still hope there is a touch screen, but I am no techie so not sure they can even do that and still make it for a good price point.

Anyways, I am pretty excited about this. I am also very interested to see exactly how this form of 3d works. I hope they show off a couple games at E3 along side the showing of the system itself. Even tech demos would be fine.
