I think the 3DS totally deserves its own thread!

I have never been so excited for an handheld gaming device like this before. Something about it just screams AWESOME. Eurogamer has gone hands on with the device. Here is a video

And that line up of games they have, wow!

Discuss!

I am dying to see Ninja Gaiden on 3DS, want to see what Team Ninja can come up with.
The NG DS I saw (never played unfortunetly) was unique with the stylus.

Thats all :)

Oh and the new DOA 3DS they are making, which is a FIGHTING game LOL
Funny how fans wanted a new one for the consoles and yet 3DS is getting one first :P

hehe :) wonder what they're gonna call it though: Nintendats or is it just what they said nintendogs+cats... that would be lame!

Nintendo will def have to make LOADS of 3DS at launch though. It will be on shortage for a long long time!!

Zelda OoT remake, Star Fox, MGS3...and much more.

Clearly there weren't enough EMT's on hand to handle the mass heart attacks, which is probably why they just announced the rest in a spreadsheet later. Good call.

For me E3 was all about 3DS and Fable 3, and maybe the new Zelda,which frankly i did not like (but seems like in extremely early stages, so no worries ?)

I wanted to see Last Story (Wii) and Last Guardian (PS3) too, but they did not sadly :(

Video of MGS3D. The graphics are pretty impressive, but I wish I could see it in full 3D glory. Oh well.

not interested myself. but i'm not a big handheld user. and it's nintendo. i've used my DSlite about 10 times total, and even my PSP hasnt seen any action for about year (probably will play peace walker some time in the future tho) handhelds have this issue of not offering the quality of a home console. if i have a chooice between MGS:rising, or MGS 3DS, im going to go for the "propper" game.

Ditto. That said, if I were the slightest bit into handheld gaming, I'd pick one of these up in an instant.

yeah. totally. but i have this tendency to make myself THINK i can get into handhelds with every one released only to end up with a very expensive paper weight. i bought into the PSP, and the DS, almost bought into the PSP go and DSi, but i WONT be making the same mistake with this.

I just saw MGS Snake Eater images on 3DS...wow!

Once I see Ninja Gaiden and I got impressed, I might consider buying one :)

But seriously, visuals on a 3DS is what striked me the most, very nice.

The 3ds looks cool, for a portable device it really looks to be good but as always, my huge beef is with Nintendo and their damn recycling of software. New system, what title do we use to drive sales? A fucking remake and a revival of Kid Icarus! Screw new ideas. Nintendo has finally gone full circle with Zelda at least and admitted, in a sense, that they have been making the same game over and over again since 1986.

The 3ds looks cool, i just hate nintendo when it comes to software. Hopefully the third party games will rock.

Can't wait also, I'm curious just how good the 3D effect is, like Megido I don't see the point in the continous recycling of software.

Saying that, now is the time for a Final Fantasy 7 remake.

Won't be buying it for Nintendo games anyways, Persona 3D sounds good to me.
