Description

Nintendo 3DS includes two screens. The bottom touch screen makes use of a telescoping stylus that is stored in the unit itself. The top screen displays 3D visuals to the naked eye. Looking at the screen is like peering through a window into a world where characters and objects have true depth. The system also has a 3D Depth Slider that lets players select the level of 3D they enjoy the most. The 3D effect can be ratcheted up to the highest level, scaled back to a more moderate setting or even turned off completely, depending on the preference of the user. Nintendo 3DS Features: 3D Upper Screen, Touch Lower Screen, New input & controls, Inward-Facing Camera, 3D Depth Slider, Wireless Switch, Dual Outward-Facing Cameras, Augmented Reality (AR) Games and built-in applications, Circle Pad, Gyro Sensor, Motion Sensor and Pedometer.

  • Excellent Condition and Arrived Very early
The console appears to be in great shape as described. It's used so there are some small expected scratches on the outside of the case, but the screens are in excellent condition. It appears to function perfectly and charge (though I didn't have a game to test yet. I'll update if that's not the case.). The screens are crisp and clear and the 3D function works well, as does the on/off slider switch. Perhaps the best part was that the item arrived before the first date in the estimate, which worked out great because it was a time sensitive purchase for us. Really happy with the purchase on initial arrival and power up. ... show more

  • Amazing little thing
At first, I was a bit concerned that the screen was very blurry on 3D mode and that it would hurt my daughter's eyes, so took off the 3D completely. But then when I finally managed to inspect the game on my own after she put it down, I realised that you have have to look at the screen directly (and not from the sides) in order to view the 3D effect properly. It was utterly amazing! We havent used the game much, but I will come back at a later time and comment on my findings. The only odd thing is that its a bit weighty, but very beautifully crafted (we got the red). Because of the metallic finish, I will have to get a case for it to avoid finger print/ smudges. I am sure it will work out to be just fine because my daughter had the DSi for three years and it never went bad. It was so sturdy and well built that I was able to pass it on to some of her cousins. Will be back at a later point after testing the various features. ... show more

  • My opinion of the 3DS...
I bought a 3DS because my old DS Lite broke. So I decided "hey, if you're going to buy a new DS anyway, might as well get the newest generation of it!" ...sigh... I thought that there would be a lot more to this sytem than there is. Not that I didn't read the reviews or anything, it has more to do with playing this system in person than taking somebody else's word for it. So right away I started comparing it to the old DS Lite: --Plays all DS games! --Takes pictures in 3D and 2D (uses right lens for 2D) --The 3D gimmick actually serves to give the illusion of enhanced graphics. --Touchscreen works just like every other DS before it, only registering one touch at a time. --The buttons are a lot more ergonomic and stick out (namely the triggers) while the START and SELECT buttons are flush with the system and require a little intentional effort to push in. --And finally, a super great working microphone. I ended up winning a PlayStation vita free from Taco Bell, but it was way before I started thinking about a new DS. Once I compared the 3DS to the Vita, the Vita won in capabilities and game variety, hands down. There are a few things that I was super excited about for the 3DS which I found out weren't that great. For instance, the first game I bought was Super Mario Bros, the NES game. When I started playing it, super anxious, I soon got bored... I never get bored playing it. So I bought Donkey Kong for Game Boy and was a bit happier because that game is way more fun. So adding Game Boy games was a really wise decision on Nintendo's part. NES, I would have preferred to see games like Castlevania and Mega Man. That would keep me from wasting my money on JXD and Dingoo consoles. One thing that would definitely make this system dominant over the Vita would be porting Game Boy Advance and SNES games to the system. it's just that there's so little to do on the 3DS that it hardly seems like a convincing buy. The graphics of DS games on this system is poor, as the image is stretched out to fit the upper screen at the same width as the lower screen, so some text looks crappy (i.e., Pokemon names in Black and White). But the AR (Augmented Reality) stuff is really neat, so they scored a win there. To its credit, the 3DS isn't a "bad" system. It's just not a huge improvement over the others. Nintendo needs to either add more improvements, boost their game library to include systems that dominated the 16-bit era (Link to The Past would be the highest selling game, that's my prediction), and if they intend to utilize the 3D gimmick that's fine, I'm cool with that, but their screen resolution is too low to make games look good when it's off. I played Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D and when the 3D is on it's awesome but the 2D reveals the game's low resolution on-screen. Compared to the Vita's impossibly high resolution, the 3DS is seriously on the verge of domination. Oh, and the web browser works but the screen resolution makes it a bit of a waste. 3D video isn't bad though, autosteroscopy seems like a really cool idea when done right. ... show more

  • Made in the Heaven
I just got the 3ds Flame red. Wath i could say, the 3ds was better of wath I expected in every way. I decided to get the 3DS becouse a friend had one, He maked the big mistake of brougth the 3DS without a game, i proved his 3DS cosmo balck with just the gameboy game and the Ac card games, was a little fun, but not out of this world, so i buyed my 3DS Flame Red with 3 3DS games, and every game are asowne in 3D, there was 3 issues for wath I love may 3DS 1) The color Flame red, you most see it to realy apreciate it, it's better that the photos the cover is dark red shining a diferent tone of red in the rest od the console 2) the circle pad, very confortable, soft, the rigth side, thinked to make your game experience more confortable 3) Maybe the best and wath matter, the 3D effect, the firs game i played was Super Street Figther 4, I dont paly this game before, but wen i palyed on the 3D i realize, U never played a tridimentional game if you dont played before on the 3DS, its a different game experience, simply brilliant. Like i said before, the biggest mistake tath nintendo made was sale the 3DS witout a Game(That's why I gived 4 stars), the 3DS itself is fun but not too much, but with the correct game(depending of the owner), it is a console made in the HEAVEN. My advice if you want to buy a 3DS, don't forget your favorite game in 3D, becouse the gameboy or DS game could be fun, but don't explote the Nintendo 3DS characteristics, and that was why the 3DS is a great hand console. ... show more
