Nintendo 3ds - HiddenKnowledge - 04-14-2011

No Glasses Needed.

Introducing the Nintendo 3DS system. Experience incredible gameplay featuring real 3D graphics, with no need for special glasses. Nintendo 3DS is a breakthrough in portable entertainment, a truly cutting-edge piece of hardware. It has to be seen to be believed.

Would you buy the 3ds?

I would definitely buy it, not because it might have better gameplay, or anything, but simply because Zelda: Ocarina of Time is supposed to be remade with proper graphics for the 3DS, am I going to buy it, so yeah :)

I saw the 3ds today in the shop and well.. It's simple: It's not 3d.
It's just 2 images that show at the same time at different angles.

Well, basically it's the same principle which 'ordinary' 3D uses (Avatar), the difference is that in contrast to stereoscopy where you need glasses, auto-stereoscopy is calculated and rendered within the actual screen, which makes it looks slightly 3d'ish, but I still like it, atleast IMO it's better than nothing, and you don't need to wear stupid glasses :P

I can't even properly look at the screen without closing 1 eye... (When the 3d is on)

I will probably get it eventually, if it has some good games. There is no way I am buying Ocarina of Time again, I already own three copies.

Not getting it. I have a DS Lite here that I haven't looked at in about 2 years. Just not into gaming (unless it's Super Smash Bros. or Pacman)
