Red definitely looks better than blue for me.

Look at photos of the blue one in real life. It's -gorgeous-.

Everytime I see the 3DS I can't help but to take outa credit card which is weird cause I don't own right now. Hm, should look into that.

I wish they'd put a bit a bit more emphasis on the gray one. Gray may be a boring color, but it's still pretty cool.

@st3v3n I'd kill for an emerald, if that's what you mean. Otherwise I'll settle for the black one.

Doesn't look that pretty, IMO.
I honestly prefer the look of my 4 year old DS Lite.

This.

I've wanted another green Nintendo console/handheld ever since my Game Boy Pocket.

There was a green DS lite for Mother's Day only.

There was a green N64 and I think most of the GB iterations have had a green color in them.

I think you misunderstood me.
The 3DS itself doesn't look that good, but the launch line-up is so amazing I'll get it day one, maybe earlier if I import it from America!
Plus it's what's on the screen that counts. Ocarina of Time with Wii graphics in 3D=yum!

That a really weird place for a headphone jack. Some of us do use headphones that don't bend. Still want.

I don't like the different coloured bottoms. Why make it orange when the rest is red? Also the closed side-profile looks clunky. I hope they smooth it out for the final.

lol, who am I kidding? I'd trade my family for a cardboard cut out!

I'm pretty surprised there's so much hype for it already. I mean, I don't consider the graphics all that much better than the PSP and in some cases they're worse. (yes, early builds but still) I mean, if Sony released this I think people would be bitching left and right and complaining about no second analog stick for games that are pointless on a handheld and how the leap in graphics is minimal. Might even have given crap about the 3D capabilities if they didn't have the right demos to show off.

I would expect there to be more Jadedness against it. Then again, I think everyone knows it's only going to get better and everyone knows it's going to be fun regardless so I guess that's why everyone is being so kind. That's pretty much the difference with Sony right now. Hardware be damned they just can't release enough games or enough diverse games on their platforms so people are extra critical of them, rightly so.

Just interesting to see, is all.

@(Unverified) I think a lot of it's the games. And the 3D. And the slick factor. I've got to admit, I'd love to see the graphics at a slightly higher level - I've had a PSP for...three years...and I'd love to see a handheld that went far beyond that. But ultimately it's about the games. And the 3DS looks to have them.

Yeah but Sony has let us down hard in the handheld department (more so with the Go) while Nintendo hasn't.

Are you comparing these games to launch psp graphics or current psp graphics.

I prefer pastel to bright and flashy colors, but I suppose the blue one is somewhat reminiscent of my metallic blue Gameboy Pocket

Not too knowledgable on the specs and hardware and stuff of the 3DS, what are the two camera like things on the top? Are they actually cameras? I take it they have something to do with 3D.

They are both cameras so that you can take 3d pictures, and hopefully 3d video.

I like how you capitalized "Computer Screen".
It caused me to think that I actually could buy a 3DS through my monitor. Sadly, $5 did not cut it :'(

Can't wait to get my hands on one, but I'm not massively keen on the weird two-color design (even if it is just a prototype). It seems a strange choice to use that for all the official photos, as it makes it look kind of ugly and tacky. Like there was a mix-up on the assembly line.

I'm totally won over by what I've heard, especially since the launch line-up looks like it could be the best ever. And to think I thought I was being cunning by skipping the DSi and sticking with my Lite forever...
