Nintendo 3DS thread of MY EYES!

If you want to act like He-Man, grab a sword and stand on the peak of one the mountains in Valua then stick your sword into the sky screaming "I HAVE THE POWER!!".Then get struck by lightning just like He-Man.

To Whom It May Concern:
Re: Launch of New Portable Game Machine

Nintendo Co., Ltd. (Minami-ward of Kyoto-city, President Satoru Iwata) will launch "Nintendo 3DS"(temp) during the fiscal year ending March 2011, on which games can be enjoyed with 3D effects without the need for any special glasses.

"Nintendo 3DS"(temp) is going to be the new portable game machine to succeed "Nintendo DS series", whose cumulative consolidated sales from Nintendo amounted to 125million units as of the end of December 2009, and will include backward compatibility so that the software for Nintendo DS series, including the ones for Nintendo DSi, can also be enjoyed.

We are planning to announce additional details at E3 show, which is scheduled to be held from June 15, 2010 at Los Angeles in the U.S.
Speculation (not confirmation) from Nikkei:

Looking forward to this, whether it's awesome, or awful. No glasses, two LCD screens, I think I see where this is going. Let's hope this is the first E3 in a while where all of the big 3 pull out new hardware, and thus, the big guns. Waggle E3 doesn't count.

Bonus: 'Fake 3D', on the DSi. http://gizmodo.com/5481451/nintendo-dsi ... 3d-mirages

Seems like every time I contemplate getting a Nintendo handheld system, they release a new one.
