Product Description
Nintendo 3DS includes two screens. The bottom touch screen makes use of a telescoping stylus that is stored in the unit itself. The top screen displays 3D visuals to the naked eye. Looking at the screen is like peering through a window into a world where characters and objects have true depth. The system also has a 3D Depth Slider that lets players select the level of 3D they enjoy the most. The 3D effect can be ratcheted up to the highest level, scaled back to a more moderate setting or even turned off completely, depending on the preference of the user. Nintendo 3DS Features: 3D Upper Screen, Touch Lower Screen, New input & controls, Inward-Facing Camera, 3D Depth Slider, Wireless Switch, Dual Outward-Facing Cameras, Augmented Reality (AR) Games and built-in applications, Circle Pad, Gyro Sensor, Motion Sensor and Pedometer.

Modern handheld gaming has long been dominated by Nintendo and Sony. Each hardware manufacturer has multiple viable offerings derived either directly, or evolving from the respective DS and PlayStation Portable product lines. All of these devices are impressive multifunctional devices, with designs meant to encourage gameplay on the go, integration with the Internet, backwards compatibility to previous games, and so on, but each goes about this in different ways. Taking a few minutes to examine the main features, and getting more familiar with available options, accessories and possible limitations of each handheld is the optimal way to determine which is the best choice for a player.

1,036 of 1,191 people found the following review helpful Good System but Games are Coming Slowly, By Kevin "Im_Juice_Lee" (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews = Fun: This review is from: Nintendo 3DS - Cosmo Black (Video Game) UPDATE: This system had slow start, but now with a good game lineup on the horizon (Mario Kart, Paper Mario, Star Fox, Luigi's Mansion, Super Mario Land, Kid Icarus, and a few more), the release of several features such as the virtual store and Netflix, and most importantly, the big $80 price cut, I have decided to bump this review up to a 4 star (originally 3). When the console first launched, it was tough to justify spending $250 on it, but now it is quite competitive at $170.~~~~~~~~~~~~~ New Short Review ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1. 3DS launched with very few games, and now a few good ones like Ocarina of Time have come out. E3 announced many good games which we'll see soon. The current lineup is still pretty lackluster and many of the upcoming games are remakes of older ones, but at least it's a step in the right direction. This is currently the biggest con of the system that has everyone online asking "WHERE ARE THE GAMES?". Nintendo has been slow even with...

So it stands to reason I'd get the 3DS. There are many good things about this system that make it an excellent purchase (perhaps not a "must buy" but a great purchase nonetheless!):- Graphics are sharp, crisp, colors pop and overall it is ultra pleasing to the eye - I love the color (I got Aqua Blue) and surprisingly it is not a fingerprint magnet - Enhanced options and potentially netflix and some game boy and game boy color remakes virtual - Analog stick is responsive, easy to use, and us fans can say Nintendo finally heard us! - I was very surprised to hear a rich vibrant sound coming from this unit. I didn't have headphones on and it was much better than the DSiXL unit - The menu navigations are good but the three buttons do take some getting used to - The stylus feels classy and I love the adjustability of it - very nice for all types of hands There are many other benefits to this... Read more 408 of 491 people found the following review helpful If You Have Ever Liked Anything Nintendo Has Ever Done, You Will Love the Nintendo 3DS, By Objective Dave (Sydney, Australia) - See all my reviews = Fun: This review is from: Nintendo 3DS - Cosmo Black (Video Game) Customer Video Review Length:: 9:36 MinsThis is a run-down of all the most notable features in the Nintendo 3DS and how they stack up. I was probably too harsh on the StreetPass functionality as the technology itself is fantastic, but I am worried how well the feature will work in places that don't have high population densities. Still, a great system overall. Hopefully this video helps you decide if it's the type of device you want to own. I do point out many criticisms of the system, but listen carefully for the many slices of praise. The criticism simply feels like it dominates because I have to justify it more than the praise, but I do think the 3DS is a great device. - David Turnbull nintendo3dsblog.com |
