at first, when I heard about this announcement, 1st thing came to my mind was holographic portable gaming hehe. Guys, remember that sega laserdisc arcade game using holographic images using mirrors? But doubted it'll be unlikely, because we got rumors like, the next nintendo portable would still have dual screen but with small gap in between.

Dude, they did say it's as powerful as the Gamecube go read read the posts on the half a dozen fan and official game sites!
No they didn't. The interviews have been posted here and it says the DEVELOPMENT is close to a gamecube so current programmers won't find much of a change. Remember that the Wii is also like the gamecube, this will aloow games to be more like each other across the Wii and DS.

If you really think that THEY said it, quote (and link) to where THEY say it, not where somebody else is interpreting their words.

They never said it's a powerful as a gamecube.

I'm amazed also that you DON'T need those special 3D glasses. If only 3DTV could catch up...

One Word: Technology.

Technology is getting to a point where we WON'T need those special glasses. Those special glasses were just there as a temp thing, for technology to catch up.

If it going to be 4 screens it look like this.

mockupb.png



The screens with 3ds on them would be in a slight angle. The top screens on top would be use as one to make a 3d image.

Here's the one i made-

I'm not very good at mspaint as you can see, not even good at scaling a Mario screenshot properly, but whatever. Two widescreens. I intended them to be about 4 inches diagonally or so (forgot how i measured it, made this a few weeks ago). I added two analog sticks of sorts. I'm not sure how i would do it, seeing as people hate nubs and it would be tricky to close the system. Maybe Nintendo can make nubs better though. I'm not going to say the PSP Go's design is any good, but perhaps the nub could be set into the system so you can still close the system. We'll see, 3DS might not even have analog... That would suck for 3D (as in polygonal) games, but we'll see.

I doubt the 3DS will have 4 screens because DS stands for dual screen,not quadruple screen.. xD

Just sayin.

If it's going to be backwards-compatible with DS games, it's going to either have 2 screens, or a portrait layout, which doesn't make much sense.


Could have 1 bigass touchscreen but when you put a DS game in a black line appears in the middle to split it up and since its all touchyscreen anyway you wont know the diff

You can see them in HQ: White and Black. By the way the + and - are Start and Select, not the volume things.

In my ideal 3DS, there'd be 3 processors: the 2 that games need (Arm7 and Arm9, I think) and one for the 3DS functions. That way, when you press Home, you could make the game enter "sleep mode" (as in when you close the DS lid) and have the third processor show a Home menu, similar to the one in the Wii. From here you could change the volume and the brightness, and play music (which could keep playing even while playing the game, since the game runs on the first two processors and the music on the third), and even use pictochat! You would also be able to use any odd functionality the 3DS brought, maybe a daily planner or a sketchbook. Also you can see in the mockup that there's two mics, this would allow the 3DS to detect where sounds come from so games wouldn't just ask you to blow, but they could ask you to blow in different directions to guide a paper plane, for example. I only put one camera because more cameras would make it too expensive, 3D screens and dual analog sticks (or should I say 3D sticks?) will make the price skyrocket enough
