Looks so awesome.

And so does that Black 3DS.

 

If there are no PS3 colors in sight... This is getting bought sometime next year.

I think most of the games looked great. Both Resident Evil titles look very good, Metal Gear Solid is great. Street Fighter 4 also looked great, and I wasn't sold on it based on images released earlier. Kid Icarus looks a lot better than the E3 trailer I think. I also love the witch in the art style of Animal Crossing, I think that game looked great. I'm a little dissapointed in Star Fox and Legend of Zelda: OoT as it doesn't look like there has been much of an upgrade from the N64 games in those short clips. Also Ridge Race looks horrible ompared to the rest of the games.

Hopefully StarFox is more than just a straight remake. It's time that franchise went somewhere

 

Steel Diver looks pretty dynamic, though.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

OoT doesn't look that good, neither does Ridge Racer or Star Fox.

Everything else looks great though.

Above: still the best game of the year.

I know its looking amazing. Closer to 360 graphics then Wii or GameCube. I liked the fact that they showed MarioKart and other Nintendo titles. I remember seeing the screens and freaking out that they looked sort of pixelated but seeing the product in motion my worries are relieved.


Riiiiight. That racing game looked so much like FM3 it was hard to tell the difference .


While i'll agree RR didn't look impressive... surely you should be comparing this game to RR6 or Test Drive Unlimited on the X360, not on FM3.

Why? If you want to claim graphical equivalence then you should be comparing with the best there is for the genre on each machine. I don't think the best 3DS has in a given genre will stack up against the best 360 has in that genre graphics-wise. Though 360 might be a bit light in the cartoony platformer department so 3DS might win there.

Still I do admit Joelcool7 said "closer to", not comparable with, so that just means 3ds needs to be slightly over the halfway mark between Wii and 360, which could be pretty doable for a 2010 developed / 2011 released handheld.

I was more along the lines of they are both early titles in the console cycle... if the 3DS had a game comparable to a launch 360 title then it's likely in 3-4 or so years it will have games that look like current 360 games.

RR on the 3DS is not one of them, at least not looking at what i've seen so far.
