Hello :)

The 3D on the 3DS is something I really like about the handheld.
I wish I had a 3D TV and other consoles would support it.
But then I thought, I already have a 3D screen, the 3DS itself.
Why am I not playing some 3D PC games on that??
Dolphin supports 3D and would be a nice fit for this kind of use.

There are a handful of ways to stream content from PC to 3DS or vice versa.
However I haven't seen any of those solutions actual stream 3D content.

Would you like to play Mario Kart Wii for example in 3D on 3DS through streaming?
I for sure know some games I desperately would like to play on my 3DS XL!
What streaming application on the 3DS would work best for this you think? Or is there maybe already a way to do this?

I know that it's a bit offtopic but if you want to play games on a 3d screen, the better you can do nowadays is using a vr headset. You can even play 3ds games on high resolution and 3d in a cinema screen, same with dolphin games.

Get a VR headset.

Alright alright xd
I thought it would be a nice thing to have.
Glasses free 3D Gamecube games :D

Though now I'm looking into creating my own 3D display and doing it that way :)
It was fun to read your responses and basically agreeing that I should just use VR haha

I like the idea of streaming from PC to 3DS, and utilising the 3D screen for 3D streaming seems smart.

A comment elsewhere says that the limitation is the N3DS Wi-Fi maxes out at 2.1MBps, and o3DS at 0.6MBps.

The 3DS does have a faster accessory port though - the cartridge slot. Maybe one day someone will design a fast Wi-Fi card that works with custom firmware to allow streaming apps to work well.
