It's like everything i've never gotten to play from having started gaming with N64 and GBC and stayed on Nintendo platforms exclusively

Though really i'm most intrigued by Steel Diver for some reason.

to: anybody who got to try out this 3DS.
Does the 3D pop out? or is it just depth on the screen?

Depth

A little bit of both, actually. I noticed, for example, in the MGS: Snake Eater trailer that I saw, some of the particle effects "leaked" out of the screen towards me. Other games like Pilot Wings had added depth perception. So, it seems like the technology can be used for either or.

Graphics are "ok"?
"Needed 3D crap"?

Graphics are great for a handheld, and 3D isn't mandatory...you should probably research a little before you start making flimsy claims...

I know like half of the games announced for the 3DS right now are ports, but still, that's a pretty solid third party lineup. MGS, Kingdom Hearts, Splinter Cell, Resident Evil, Street Fighter. Again, mostly ports, but still.

@kenny goo I'm pretty sure that Kingdom Hearts is in fact a new title and not a port. It's been confirmed by Nomura.

I'm still holding off for PSP2. I need new game experiences not old ones in the form of a handheld.

I'm pretty sure we know for a fact it consists of reused PS2 assets. So if the game itself isn't a port, it's made of ported content. I'd still love to play it, but it's a port. Simple as that.

I wish they would release those too. I have 3D Vision and it comes with a player to view pics/vids in side-by-side 3D.

Whatever excuse, it happens on the PSP-2000 as well. I know it's not the textures but it doesn't change the fact it's annoying when it shows up.

Do I care about the optional 3D(they wasted time and money on)? No, I just do not want to squint at the damn small screen anymore to play the few good games that come out on the DS...... my eyes are hurting more than my butt burn. LOL

I'm certainly interested, but I'll wait for the 3DS Lite or 3DSi.

Now, the PSP2, I'll purchase on day one since Sony is horrible at revising their hardware (ex: PSP-3000, PSP Go, PS3 Slim, etc.).

It's odd, It says Nintendo right on it, It has Nintendo games on it, but it just kinda has the look of something Sony. Just the styling of it, maybe I'm just crazy though. Or maybe it's just the home button that is throwing me off on it.

*Sigh* The comments these people have about how much the 3DS "sucks" never ceases to amaze me. I'm surprised these rabid Sony and or Microsoft fanboys haven't been banned yet (*cough*WINterfang*cough*)! Anyway, the 3DS will kill the PSP2 just as quick as the DS killed the PSP. HAHAHA!

So glad I waited on that dsi/dsi xl. Can't believe I'm more excited for a handheld than all three major consoles combined. This is blasphemy...this is madness!

With all that technological goodness, they're still can't hire some good designers to save their lives....

That looks just as ugly as the previous DS incarnations.

Still getting though ;)

i was hoping for head tracking 3d instead of depth, that way it could add gameplay elements and not give you a headache. still i want this on day 1.

No, I said it still looks ugly, but I'll probably get it regardless. I just think they could have made more of an effort with the design, but hey, who's to say this is the final design, right? I think the clamshell concept is tired and a little too retro for my liking. I want something that looks futuristic. This looks like a flattened Nintendo SP. It's 2010 people, I'm sure they can come up with something more attractive than this.

Wish list for TLOZ OOT 3DS:

1] 3D Hyrule Market as Adult Link

2] Loads of enemies on Hyrule Field as Adult Link

3] Use bow while riding Epona and being able to use Epona around Hyrule Castle.

4] Triforce, just for the sake of it.

5] New enemies, new music, new items [hidden], treasure quests.


6] More dungeons [even one would do!]/sidequests

7] Much harder difficulty, especially the bosses, certainly Ganondorf/Ganon anyway.

8] Simple Sword combos...

9] Better dialogue, improved plot.

Warning! Warning! Video game overload. Video game overload.

Commencing shutdown in 3...2...1...

*Head explodes*

Seriously, though, I cannot wait until this handheld comes out. Got a DS a few years ago and thought it was okay, but with so many games coming out for this (and in 3D!), I am getting stoked. Well done, Ninty. Well done.
