Nintendo-3DS

blog_nintendo3ds_01.jpgOn March 27, Nintendo will launch the 3DS. It will be first 3D game system and it doesn't use those annoying polarized glasses. The handheld folds in half and has two screens, the top screen is used to display 3D content and games, the bottom is touch sensitive. Using a sliding switch on the side, the level of 3D can be adjusted or even turned off. The system also includes dual cameras, which allow you to take 3D photos and view them using the 3D screen. The 3DS also comes with an internet browser and a virtual console similar to the Wii, which will allow you to play downloaded games. Nintendo also takes social interaction to new levels using Street Pass. This allows the 3DS to initiate games or exchange game data between two devices just by passing someone on the street even if your 3DS is in standby. $249.99, nintendo.com
