megaman79 on 22 January 2011

This is a pretty excellent write up on the 3DS's 3D capabilities and limitations. I still want one.

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Its all lies.

It burns your eyes son. Stay away from it.

Daddy?

I want you home by 23:00...

And don't you dare looking and that 3D glassess-less sin >:(

Is it evil daddy?

Well this is probably the most uncomfortable conversation i have ever seen on Vgchartz, outside of Offtopic that is.

It works. It's 3D. It has good games/modes

That's all you need to know. You already know if you want one or not



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

The main reason I don't want a 3DS is because I don't really want another system...

I wouldn't be able to afford all of the games I would want to buy. I have already stopped playing/buying new games for my DS(The 1st model/fat) and I currently focus on the Wii and I buy maybe like 3 PS3 games a year. 

With that said I like 3D but I would probably have to stop buying new Wii games if I were to get a 3DS and I think I choose Wii over 3DS.

IF that's the case, then for you, it would likely be better to wait for a while before you get the 3DS

There are many, many quality Wii games out there, and it'd be a shame not to play them. The 3DS ain't going anywhere

the only thing i'm nervous about and hope to get remedied soon is that SMALL % chance that I may be the few out there that can't see the 3D at all.  I have it pre-ordered already but would love to have a display model pop up in bestbuy/target/walmart/ect soon so that i can see if I can actually see the 3D or if I'm just one of those that can't.

Resident Evil used to be my favorite franchise until Pikmin...I didn't like RE4 or RE5 as much as the 1st 3 and the one on the 3DS is like the 1st 3 LOL. If Pikmin and RE are both on the 3DS then I might buy one...but hopefully Pikmin 3(and a true RE) are coming to the Wii!

Resi4, Resi2, Resi1 and Resi0 are already on the Wii. As are Pikmin 1, and 2, and likely 3, so

This sounds like a good idea. They should implement it!

 

(You know, legally, here in the UK you're allowed to check a product over the cost of £25 before purchase to check you can use it/isn't faulty, so...)

I have RE1 Archives but I don't have RE4Wii Edition or RE0(Don't like this one)

I live in America so I don't have NPC Pikmin 2...

RE2 is on the Wii?
