Nintendo 3DS Coming This Year!

by the Pocket World team

Yes it’s true handheld console fans! Nintendo has just announced in Japan that they are working on a new version of the Nintendo DS with the working title of Nintendo 3DS. They will have a big announcement at this year’s E3 show on 15 June. Wow! Just imagine what they could do with Pokémon in 3D? Here’s the full announcement from Nintendo Co, Ltd…

Nintendo 3DS Coming This Year!OFFICIAL NINTENDO PRESS RELEASE: March 23, 2010. 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 125 million 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.

      What about The DSI XL

    • Bokunopochama said:

      This sounds good but if you have to wear 3D glasses every time I don’t think i’ll get it. It sure looks fun though.

      follow this link to see the actual picture of this new 3DS http://www.gadgetreview.com/2010/03/nintendo-3ds-details-emerge.html

      also…
      If you have Pokemon Heart Gold and would like a Heracross, then follow these steps…

      1 go to the Azalea Gym after getting heatbutt,
      2 headbutt the 4th tree from the right bellow the gym
      3 and catch as many Heracross’s as you need!!!!!

    • Milo said:

      Sounds so good! I can’t believe another one is coming out but I don’t really care, I’ll still buy it!

    • pokemongamer999 said:

      @Crox who cares about The DSI XL it’s all hyaped (dsi with a bigger screen whoooo greatest consle on earth)

    • Pokemonrules said:

      I would play pokemon on that any day! Also, how does the pokewalker charge? (Me and my brother are getting pokemon heart gold and soul silver tomorrow!)

    • megan said:

      i dont think i like this idea i hope they still sell the origenal ds games cos i do not like this new version of ds

    • BeAloud said:

      The DSi XL is just a bigger DSi (with the same small buttons and screen resolution :( ), the 3DS instead is a revolution!

      Let’s see if the Sharp parallax barrier 3D technology works well as it seems, coupled with head movement tracking 3D gaming on this technological wonder could become an affordable reality.

    • Nick said:

      The new DS will still play all of the old DS games follow this link – http://www.gadgetreview.com/2010/03/nintendo-3ds-details-emerge.html

      Jelly-Bean

    • jake said:
