Title: "3D" DS coming
Post by: nectarsis on March 23, 2010, 08:26:02 AM: http://videogames.yahoo.com/events/plugged-in/-nintendo-announces-new-3d-enabled-ds/1394787

To many Ds'eseses in to little time IMO. On a plus side backwards compatibility is welcome.

P.S. - The countdown begins for Apple to follow suit with the iPa3d.

Does it matter? Almost anything is better than the Kotex iPad.

They better be jacking up the LCD resolution in these puppies, else the 3D is gonna be super grainy, as this type of screen effectively halves the resolution (one half per eye).

...my feeble mind is confused.

Anyhow, I will be getting a 3DS day one, I am a sucker for new tech.
