Looks like Nintendo officially announces the DS Successor temporarly named, 3DS.

According to this, it will be launced during the fiscal year that ends in March 31st of 2011, but it can be released anytime between April 2010 to March 2011 since the specific date is unknown.

The fiscal year starts April 1st 2010 and ends March 31st 2011 for those who don't know. Some people are saying that Nintendo is shooting for a Holiday season release.

Sweet! What's different about a 3DS? Is it like virtual reality?

Lol, someone made a Wikipedia page on it. I just hope that it's released during the holiday season

Interesting. I wonder how they can do the 3D Effects without glasses.

looks like it comes out second half of this year. But with screens smaller than 4 inches, aww man.

Another DS made! It looks alright but it's not making me excited about it yet. :-\

 

[Charizard632]

I wonder what it looks like.

Oh yay, another DS. : Nintendo should work on making good games instead of making a million new DS's.

I found this Japanese website about the 3D technology.

Translation of first passage: Show a different picture of the special right and left "parallax barrier" by the naked remains of great force can enjoy a 3D stereoscopic display.
Seg LISMO Video and photographs movies, games, variety appears before your eyes is a three-dimensional content.

Hope this is useful.  :-[

 

[madstarr]

Yeah, that certain LCD screen will be made by Sharp

Just wait for another year and another new DS will come out. No point of getting it so soon.

Lol, it sure fooled me!

 

[CaptainShyguy]

It looks more like a cellphone.

 

[madstarr]

The title of the video was 3DS commercial or something like that,  and then I knew that it was a trick since it was april 1st. It is a cellphone. The person who posted it must have been very desperate to have done that

I told all my friends that it was coming out soon. I'm going to sound like a fool

 

[waluigi48]

Well, good thing. I just got a Dsi so I wasn't gonna buy this.

Well, it could come anytime between April 1st 2010 and March of next year.

When I see 3DS...I think of the 3 DS's that have been produced already...Original DS, DS Lite and DSi(not counting the DSi XL).

I sure hope Nintendo changes the name...and I sure hope to God that it won't be a big failure like the Virtual Boy. Yeah, you guys all know how that thing sucked!

Still...I wonder if I'm going to actually get this...doesn't seem appealing to me...
Guess I gotta wait for more info to be released...(blah)

Same here. The 3DS sounds like a buttload of crap.

This looks really real. Could this be the real Nintendo 3DS? On one of the images, you can see a place where DS carts would go, and where a maybe 3DS Cart will go.
