Hardware Nintendo 3DS FAQ

[Devin]

Qoes it print money?

A:

Spoiler: It Prints Money

Put the image in a spoiler like I said in the above post.

It's annoying and 'unprofessional' to have a distracting .gif in the FAQ.

Sorry. Been pretty busy. Fixed*

You should also add:

Q: Will it be possible to turn the 3D effect on and off?
A: Yes, there will most likely be a switch, or perhaps you'll be able to change it through the main screen.

It's been confirmed that it's indeed possible to turn the 3D effect on and off, but the way is still unknown.

How powerful is the 3DS?...

...Several developers that have experienced 3DS in its current form have reported, off the record, that it has processing capabilities that far exceed the Nintendo Wii and bring the device with abilities that are close to HD consoles such as PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

if thats true, i will be SO happy! (lol if we have a WII emulator on the 3ds, that will PWN!!!)

I can't imagine it would look very good. I can't imagine that even an N64 game would look very good.

Bigger top screen or not, it's only going to be slightly bigger since it's portable, and it's LCD, which means crap resolution compared to a TV.

Just compare Animal Crossing DS to Animal Crossing GC for example -- massive huge giant difference in image quality.

Or compare the two Mario 64s. Also a world of difference.

I'd love to see the two N64 Zeldas on this thing, and I'd buy it in a heartbeat if it did. But it won't be the same game at all. I guarantee it'll be tons harder just because of visual paring down.

And GC? Or Wii? Seriously doubt it.

 

[Devin]

I updated the guide. That 3DS is looking pretty good.

 

[Covarr]

Anyone seen the Zelda Ocarina of Time 3DS shots? Ninty hasn't announced it, but they're on their E3 server.

Logos I've made:

I have them in svg form if you want me to change them

 

[DeltaBurnt]

Erm...no offense but why should an unofficial logo be added to a FAQ.

Also I would add to the FAQ that the 3DS has two cameras on the outside which are used to take 3D pictures.

Better than the smudgy jpeg on the front page.

Hm....Thanks for the advice, but I'm mainly describing the 3DS itself. Someone already posted a thread with the list of games coming out for it, in the 3DS forum.

K, well then don't forget to add that the 3DS can take 3D pictures with it's two outside cameras.
