By Roland Hutchinson on Tuesday 23rd March 2010 8:55 am in Gadgets, Gaming, Technology News

We knew that Nintendo was set to announce another version of their popular DS handheld gaming console, although we didn’t expect Nintendo to announce a 3D version, the Nintendo 3DS.

The Nintendo 3DS will feature 3D graphics, and a new 3D display that doesn’t need any 3D glasses, and the new system with be compatible with software from the Nintendo DS and DSi.

Nintendo Announces 3DS, 3D DS Handheld Console

Nintendo will be providing more details on their new 3D handheld gaming console at the E3 Expo in LA in June. It will be interesting to see what the 3D is actually like without 3D glasses, it certainly sounds very interesting.

As soon as we find out more details on the Nintendo 3DS we will let you guys know.

@mark: Absolutely it will play videos, if not, Nintendo is digging their own graveyard!

But the only question is, will this device play 3D videos that will become widely available in this 2010? I guess this question should be answered on June. Let’s just wait for it.

This is gay (imo). I’m so sick of 3d crap!!! It kills my eyes… I hope there will only be like, downloadable games with 3d, because I just want a new system that DOESN’T break any crazy bounderies (wii with the motion crap, DS with the touch screen crap, gamecube being a cube and having tiny games)
