Firstly, this kinda proves that Sony have been researching it for a while.

Secondly, he never said anything bad about the 3DS.


Nintendo has been researching it since the fail of the virtual boy. He didn't bad mouthed the 3DS. He's trying hard to criticise it when he hasn't even played it or seen it. The same thing happened when Nintendo intoduced touch screen and dual screens on a handheld.

... So? I never said Nintendo HADN'T been researching it did i?

If he was trying so hard to criticise it he wouldn't have admitted he hadn't seen it yet. Yet, meaning he IS going to check it out and he IS interested in seeing how it works.

Stop being so sensitive. It's annoying.

That's never going to happen Carl. Sadly..... :/

I would reply to this but i won't waste my time since i don't reply to Wagram posts and i'll get banned like last time since he is oh so sensitive.

Carl this wasn't meant for you. Don't worry no hard feelings :p I understand.

Damn... these sensitive people....



Geez, Sony and Nintendo really hate each other. He hasn't seen the 3DS!? Really!? What kind of business minded individual is insane enough NOT to see his biggest competitor's most major product when its available to see right now? Truth is he has seen it and Sony just might be working on it themselves but Nintendo just did it sans Avatar where 3D has made a huge and remarkable comeback. While I could care less about 3D I look at the lineup the Big N has and I say WOW! And the option to turn the 3D off? Pure Gold... Still I can imagine a world where you see hundreds of people with these small devices and things are popping out off them. Finally we get the Star Wars Chess game from Episode IV. Good times indeed. Its too bad we only have a little under two years left to enjoy it. 2012 here we come!!!

If I actually was "Oh so sensitive" I would actually care about your post. But I don't. :D

My lord the Nintendo crowd is a touchy one indeed.   Just to re-iterate.  He specifically stated that in Sony's research (In the way they technologically do 3D portable games) that it was not accurate enough for them.  It was not precise enough for Sony. 

He mentioned he had not played the Nintendo 3DS and could not comment on whether it suffered from the same symptoms the products in their tests did. 

So how is he bashing Nintendo again?  He isn't.   As for the 3DS being the coolest thing in the world?   Why don't we wait until we see it in action on the market before we proclaim it the biggest thing ever? It very well might not be as perfect as people have proclaimed.  We will have to see how it is received before we can truly say it's the best thing in portable gaming EVAR!!

"Before the show, I was concerned that seeing a crisp 3D image on the Nintendo 3DS would require a very specific viewing angle and little fidgeting. There’s some wiggle room, but some obvious flaws as well. The image gets fuzzy when viewed from too high an angle, but the most noticeable issue arises when you tilt the screen horizontally. Even the smallest shift produces a momentary flicker across the screen, enough to be distracting if you move around a lot while playing. There’s also a sweet spot in distance, and it’s a bit more than a foot away from your face. Hold the 3DS up to the nose, or at arms length, and the 3D effect won’t be as easy to see

Once inside the demonstration area, I had about 10 minutes to look around at various games, non-interactive demos and movies. The one that stood out was Dinosaur Strike, a simple head-to-head brawling game with Jurassic beasts. The 3D doesn’t change the way you play the game, of course, but I couldn’t help cracking a smile after winning the match, my T-Rex nearly popping out of the screen during his victory roar. That’s funny because the 3DS’glasses-free display gives images the appearance of receding into the screen, rather emerging from it. My Dinosaur Strike moment had more to do with the shock of a T-Rex jolting towards the camera.

Not all the demos fared as well. A non-interactive demo of Resident Evil was particularly awful, always displaying a ghost image rather than the intended 3D effect. And I viewed this 3DS demo on two units just to make sure it was that bad.

Fortunately, Nintendo was clever enough to include a slider on the side of the 3DS to control the 3D effect. In some of the demos I played, full throttle 3D produced some flicker around main images. Pulling the slider down to about the halfway point was perfect, preserving the 3D effect without getting in the way.

Here is the headline from CVG (the source for this item): 

 

Sony: Nintendo 3DS-style tech is inaccurate

Basically, Kaz appears (to me) to trying to be critical of the concept of naked eye 3D because it would completely derail the 3D approach that Sony is taking with TVs/PS3s.

However, the consumers seem to like it. That should be the bottom line.  But there are businesses that have forgeotten that and it is not good for their bottom line.

PS -- For those of us who wear glasses, the concept of 3D without having to add something on top of our glasses is really welcomed. I got nauseous trying to play 3D games on Toy Story Mania on my Wii last night (red-blue glasses). And I had trouble seeing the 3D on the ride at Hollywood Studios (stereo glasses).

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

"naked eye 3D for portables" does "not have high precision

if someone tells me somethin like that Im sure he's talkin about a flaw on the product

and I dont know many other "naked eye 3D for portables"  there is on the market

so even though its light, he's still sayin somethin bad about the 3ds but still stayin polite.

not a big deal but still tryin to tell people that the 3ds might not be what we all that good



Nintendo made me a gamer so I'd be stupid to ever try to forget that                                             like so many people nowadays

The Top  Best Consoles Are SNES and PSX

Twist it however you want, that's not what he said.
He said that based on Sony'sown researches, the tech doesn't provide high precision.

Stop trying to dig the grave any deeper.
