I don't want to spoil this but isn't Nintendo all about innovation? I mean, an archivement system will be clearly a rip-off and Nintendo do that...


It wont simply copy Microsoft's or Sony's achievement system, they will push their system further with more innovations of course.


Yep... you wont unlock achievments... you will unlock special friendcodes

 

Common, at this point on everybody is ripping of everybody here. I dont even know who did what first. Whats more important, is who did what better

Part of the reason I love Nintendo as much as I do is that they don't rip off the competition.


What about the DVD?

DVD was not directly a competitors product. Sony never made DVD it was a format made by and for the film industry later adopted to gaming. I see nothing wrong with the game industry adopting formats and forms of entertainment from the music and film industry as those are not competitors.

Even if Nintendo's next console used BluRay's they wouldn't be really copying a technology from Sony as the film industry created the format. Also I highly doubt Nintendo would use a mainstream format again after all the piracy they are suffering with Wii.

Nintendo develops for the most part everything themselves. They don't tend to use other companies technologies. They don't steal they innovate and create new forms of entertainment. Example the Mini-disk for GameCube everyone was using DVD's but Nintendo used their own format.

You're lying, DVD was invented and developed by Philips, Sony, Toshiba, and Time Warner in 1995. Please, if want to say something, don't be blind.

Wow, I was already sold on the 3DS. Now I'm super sold I guess.

 

 

Same here Can this thing get even better? TBH all of these features play second for me, the lineup alone is waaaaaaay more then enough for me to buy one


Oh yeah, Nintendo confirmed it also makes sandwiches.

All this and sammiches to?  WOO!  When you talk 3DS it isn't sandwiches, it is sammiches!

Nintendo 3DS will transform the Layton/Casual player in hardocre gamers without they even notice it , and i think that is why 3DS will have a huge impact in the industry.

Misleading thread title.. don't mean to burt your bubble but..  NIntendo was asked personally about the online service, and they said they are looking into having a similar service to the Wii's on 3DS..

Why would they put a friendlist and achievements on 3DS and not on Wii? Makes no sense to me. Also the 3ds will only be connected via wifi, having a friendlist would be kinda useless.. it's exactly why the PSP doesn't have it(sony was asked why they didn't port the friendlist to PSP).

The iphone is going to have all of that (true integrated "friends" list, online system everywhere through 3G, and achievements) with the OS4 coming out too.. so idk why some people are thinking this is revolutionary.

I think he meant it wasn't developed with the video game applications in mind. Please, if you want to say something, learn to read.

No, he wasn't. His first and second paragraph makes no sense.

Great , all the 3DS needs now is a Monster Hunter game, can you imagine that?



Funtime on 17 June 2010

I'm already sold on the 3DS but voice chat would make it a guaranteed must have.

Well, of course Nintendo is copying Achievements. But the difference is they weren't giant hypocrites saying "ZOMG it's a stupid idea lulz"
