Awesome, but didn't we already know it wouldn't be the kind of 3D used by the DSi?

Also, I feel bad for Rayder

Well then, it looks like the DSlite will be my last hand held after all. If they're gonna use some magic screens that require both eyes to see the 3D image, then the 3DS will be useless to me since I only have one eye to see with.
Not all games will be in 3d , some games will used the extra power ( I hope they have)

BTW, @Rayder: if you keep your eyes away from the screen for more than 30cm or something, it won't have a 3D effect anymore, so you could still play then. Also, as KingVamp said, not necessarily all games will use the 3D effect.

Although it doesn't confirm anything, this is what Nintendo should have given us before doing little upgrades like the DSi.

I hope Nintendo utilizes the screens from Sharp and not some stupid gimmick up their sleeve >_>.

I think you can turn off the 3D effect.

... does anyone else find this amazing

Its not holographic technology so I don't think it's that amazing. 3D technology isn't new at all. The way Sharp is doing it is new, but its nothing to get excited about. It seems gimmicky IMO. I mean, will it really add anything to DS games in terms of gameplay or will it just deliver the same types gameplay with a '3D effect'?

I'm more interested in the additional 3D processing power the 3DS is supposed to have and any other improvements. And I'm more worried about possible 'DRM-like' features Nintendo might implement on top of what they've implemented in the DSi.

Lets see how good these Sharp 3D screens are.

Why would you want an Ipad?
This
Yea, because most of us want to replace our giant screen TV's that run 1080p with a device that isn't even wide screen or 720p. My current TV is a 32in CRT with 1080p looks amazing because it has a infinity viewing angle doesn't matter where site, ipad not so much.

Can't wait for E3, it's in june right?

another source here at Boston.com. The source indicates that Sharp's screen will feature FWVGA resolution (480 x 854 pixels), 500 cd/m2 luminance, and a contrast ratio of 1000:1. Note that again, it doesn't mean that the 3DS will be using that specific model or even be using Sharp's screens.


Couple of interesting things with this. First contrast ratio is almost double on these new screens. Double that of the DS/DSi screens, so we are looking at far better true black levels, and screens capable of more clear reproduction of dark and light shades, and wider vewing angles. (Atleast for 2d)

ref: http://www.displaymate.com/psp_ds_shootout.htm

Second thing, if the sharp screens are to be used, comment on the sharp screens is that objects wont appear to -pop out of the screen-, like some people assume, but rather these screens give depth to distance .. So I guess the way we perceive a wall to be behind a coffee table, but don't expect things anything to appear -out- of the screen at all. Pretty much, closest point of depth perception looks to be at physical screen level itself with 3d effect giving layered distance and depth behind an object there after.

Quote"However, the main difference concerns the image depth. Actually, on either Sony or Panasonic’s 3D TV, the image would emerge from the screen… But on Sharp’s mobile 2D / 3D LCD, the image provides a great sensation of depth without making you feel as if the image is coming out from the screen."

ref: http://en.akihabaranews.com/42041/

I can vouch atleast in so far as the glasses variety of new HD TV's that objects are perceived OUT of the screen and into your face. (Like "woah".) Looks not to be the case with this, but it's still going to give a pleasant effect.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice

    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze

    so..... yeah

    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double

    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
