Far more likely for the 3DS than if there had been a virtual handheld on the DSi.Clipper said:

Even the haters have trouble hating on the 3DS. It's just that good.cw_sasuke said:

But you're right, it's weird that there are hardly any rumors, especially after all the E3 hype. Nintendo seems to be a lot more careful this time as well. There are next to no hints at the usual places - no job listings, CVs, announcements or slips from middleware providers...
I think he was and I believe SkiesofWonder or something was posting stuff in the comments of a random blog from an artist or something.Trurl said:
Falafelkid spreads his 'definitive Revolution speculation' bullshit till this day and has a legitimate job at a german TV station on the side.

The crazy thing is that despite all the fake stuff like pictures of helmets seen on Revolution SDK manuals and projection screens or holograms, everyone was still shocked when Nintendo finally showed the Wii Remote for the first time. Soon after all the bloggers shifted their focus towards the graphics of the system, which weren't shown in the TGS trailer because they were 'mindblowing'. When specs started to leak and the Revolution/Wii was anything but a powerhouse, Falafelkid and friends made up the story about nurbs and how it would change gaming forever. I spend way too much time reading all that shit but I was caught up in the hype untill Iwata finally showed the controller and silenced all 'sane' speculation.

Is the company that's making the graphics chip for the 3DS publicly traded?

Yeah, it's a pretty sure bet that they'll do well.
Sharp is making the screens, aye?
Here's an interview with Jools Watsham (Renegade Kid) about the 3DS, in case it wasn't posted:
He also asked what kind of games people would like to see, from Renegade Kid or other developers, on 3DS, on his blog a while ago: http://joolswatsham.blogspot.com/2010/08/what-do-you-want-on-3ds.html

If Nintendo fixes the L and R buttons (I think they did for the DSi) then I wouldn't mind playing some FPS's on it.

There are screen protectors, I've never needed it, you don't have to push in that hard.

I was watching the 3DS portion of Nintendo's E3, and I just kept thinking, "This thing is going to be the biggest thing in gaming since Pong."
Ugh, November needs to get here.

That might be underselling it.
If Nintendo can tap both current markets (the DS/Wii market and the PS3/360 market) with this thing, it's going to become it's own classification.

Speaking of, is there any reason why a screen protector might distort the image on the top screen? I tend to get screen protectors on pretty quickly but dont know if it would have any affect. From what I understand of the tech I dont imagine it would but..

I'm sure Nintendo has a few things up its sleeves that will really draw in that crowd using the 3D.
They've been fairly consistent this generation with that.

Guys, has it been reported yet that there is a price cut coming for the current DS systems? If not, consider this post as a heads up ;-).
Edited to say, this is for the U.S. derp.

I always had the feeling that Nintendo was keeping the Nintendogs sequel under his sleeve for the DS succesor....and I was right, Nintendogs 3DS will crack the Touch market the same way the first did for DS.

Yeah, they announced it last week. Both the DSi and the XL are getting $20 price cuts.

Dudes, we get to most likely see a shitload of new media and videos for games for the 3DS in just three and a half weeks! How awesome is that?

I see, well regardless i think this is good news for a slight chance of 3DS coming out this year!!
Doesn't mean it's not a challenge ;PAceBandage said:
I feel it's really important to bring new games. Nintendogs will be a hit, but they'll want people to keep buying and get new people in.Relaxed Muscle said:
It's hard because they can just get a DS for many of the experiences, Brain Age, Flash Focus, the Pedometer one, the cooking one. Stuff like that.

I agree, especially since the system's design makes it less friendly to those kinds of games than the existing DS line. Nintendogs will help, but it'll probably take more than that.
These next few weeks will be more agonizing than child birth
and i mean like if you were having a really fat baby. worse than that. like really really fat. and your vagina is really small. like you couldn't even get a finger in there small. actually, smaller than that. maybe like the top part of a sewing needle small. yeah, that small. oh and you have to take a poop too. so like, you were in labor and the doctor's head is between your legs and your vagina's really small and you really have to poop but you don't want poop in the doctors face and get the smell all in the room and stuff and the nurses will leave because it smells so bad and you have nobody's hand to squeeze when you squeeze that really fat baby through your microscopic vagina hole. yeah.
yeah it's gonna be that bad guys.

I think the fact that it has a 3D camera will help entice them, among other things.
