Yeah, but it's a bullshit gimmick that's gonna be around for a while.

RallyMonkey:
Only if you buy into it.

Sox:
3D gaming was a bullshit gimmick right up until Super Mario 64 was developed. I think people should begin taking 3D a little seriously.
Naysayers, this isn't the same kind of 3D bullshit that you're getting with movies, like Avatar. This isn't things 'popping out of the screen'. This is fully interactive. This technology adds dimensions behind the screen. What you see changes depending on the angle you view it from. Imagine, a handheld gaming system that lets you literally peek around corners in the game, without having to move your character or press any keys.

I'm with Jordan and Stephen. This has the potential to be absolutely groundbreaking. Even without the (most likely optional) '3D bullshit', this is still going to be an incredibly powerful nintendo handheld with an analog control stick.

Indeed, I imagine it will end up much like the touchscreen for the DS was when it came out. Lots of games using it unnecesarilly and then at some point that slowed down dramatically and decent to great usage of it started becoming the norm. In some cases that was as simple as developers realizing their game didn't need touch screen capabilities, but the ones that use it nowdays usually use it to great effect.

JD:
Who was that dude that made a way for the wii to be seen 3D?
