In a move that all but confirmed their dominance of E3 2010, Nintendo unveiled their latest portable device: the Nintendo 3DS. An evolution of the DS, the latest offering from Nintendo features surprisingly robust internal hardware for a handheld device. In fact, several reports claim it has more juice behind it than the Nintendo Wii. But who cares about numbers? What gamers are getting excited about is the ability to play Super Mario games in brilliant, glasses-free 3D.
Unfortunately, pictures can’t really do the Nintendo 3DS justice. Journalists at E3 were impressed by the clarity and depth of the 3D image. And just in case you were worried, the Nintendo 3DS will be fully backwards compatible with previous Nintendo DS titles.
Initial impressions are highly positive. Corporate is already expecting a year-long sell out, similar to what was seen with the Nintendo Wii, for the 3DS. Although pricing has not yet been announced, initial sources estimate it to be available worldwide by March 31st.
