Iwata admits 3D excitement is Fading

[Skelletonike]

Meh... I've always loved 3D movies ever since I saw my first one (well, nowadays 3D not counting the 80's and 90's one) a few years ago, I've been enticed by it, it's pretty exciting watching movies and stuff, gaming is included, I love my 3DS and I've always played everything with 3D on max, I've never had problem with the sweetspot either, just the first 5 minutes after I got the console. xP

Also, 3D makes the 3DS games look brighter and cleaner, which I like (for example Kid Icarus looks much better with 3D than in 2D to me).

I actually *always* play 3DS games in 3D, but not all the way up.
My excitement towards the feature didn't wear off, but it doesn't seem new to me anymore. Doesn't mean I no longer enjoy it, though.

But when studios decide to use t at the last min. the movies end-up looking bad in 3d. The second GI Joe movie for instant is delayed for two reasons. One of them is the movie now being converted to 3D. The other?, they decided not to kill Duke off and the movie is being re-filmed and write'n to focus on him more.

On the topic of the 3DS: the 3d doesn't work as well as the "real" 3D movies when watched in theaters.

3D is an utter gimmick with no tangible benefit.

Hence I welcome this news and hopefully developers will focus on games rather thanTHREEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDD.

Glad I didn't jump the hype train to be honest, I've seen 1 movie in 3D and since then didn't bother with it anymore.

couldn't agree more i hate 3d both in gaming AND movies! that's why i don't go to the cinema much anymore cos nearly every god damn movie is only in 3d and they won't show the non 3d versions! when i get my 3ds xl (this month) i prob won't ever use the 3d setting i get enough headaches already.

They almost always have non-3D versions.

not at MY cinema their in love with it so damn much they only have the 3d versions.

nope cos i get more enjoyment watching my movies on my 65" plasma with the sound as loud as i want and no retards talking, eating popcorn or kids fucking screaming in the background and it didn't cost me $15-25 a ticket! who cares if i have to wait a few extra months for the movie to be out on brd BFD.

Cool story, Bro.

 

[Centrix]

I think of it like the 3DS is the 3rd in the line of Nintendo DSes, instead of a 3D S.
To me, it's the hardware upgrade that appealed to me, with the 3D as a bonus feature.

Yeah i think thats how i feel too. Thanks for pointing that out. I like the option of being able to turn on 3D if i want to.

 

[Luigi2012SM64DS]

I barly even use the 3D in my eyes.

 

[KingVamp]

I need to get a new TV anyway, so I'll probably get a 3D one, so I can watch 3D movies.
And I know I have some 3D capable games, so I'll try them out.

If I every get a 3d tv it going be well done glasses-less 3d.


or this




I be to like 4-5 3d movies this summer and always leave 3d on my 3ds,so other words, I like 3d.

Yeah, "News" always twist Nintendo words.

Except it isn't... It is a new handheld, it isn't in the ds line.

I can see you're in a good position to judge...

I've never seen a movie in 3D.

Not seeing a movie in 3D= Zero experience with 3D media/entertainment?

EDIT: Changes a word or two.

 

[RupeeClock]

The only good 3D I've experienced is on the 3DS, it's immersive and glasses free, and doesn't cause any eye-strain in my experience.
It just makes things seem much more vibrant than 2D mode does, the effect is subtle in the end and the excitement does wear off, but it's a nice little enhancement I prefer to keep.

Now 3D at the cinema? I've watched a couple of things in 3D, Rio and Pirates: An adventure with scientists.
At this particular theatre the 3D effect didn't work very well and the glasses only made the picture darker, to be frank it made the viewing experience worse.

 

[Janthran]

Honestly, I think they should make a few 3DS games that aren't 3D and use that processing power to make the game better.

 

[Depravo]

I don't get excited by rumble and analog these days. Doesn't mean I no longer want them.
