Product Description

Real 3D Graphics. No Glasses Needed.Introducing the Nintendo 3DS system. Experience incredible gameplay featuring real 3D graphics, with no need for special glasses. Nintendo 3DS is a breakthrough in portable entertainment, a truly cutting-edge piece of hardware. It has to be seen to be believed.  3D ScreenThe Nintendo 3DS system opens up a whole new world of eye-popping gameplay possibilities. The stereoscopic 3D display of the upper screen gives objects within the game world a feeling of space and depth that extends far into the back of the screen. It becomes easier to see the position of characters and obstacles in the world, making many game experiences even more intuitive for all types of players. 3D Depth SliderA built-in 3D Depth Slider allows you to immediately adjust the intensity of the 3D settings on the Nintendo 3DS system to your liking. The 3D effect can also be turned down completely-all Nintendo 3DS games and applications can be played in 2D, and look better than any Nintendo handheld before it. Motion Sensor & Gyro SensorPortable play control reaches a new level with these amazing features, allowing for new & unique gameplay mechanics. A built-in motion sensor and gyro sensor can react to the motion and tilt of the system, so whether players are twisting their systems side to side or moving them up and down, their motion-compatible Nintendo 3DS games respond instantly. Two ScreensGame graphics have never looked better on a Nintendo handheld system, thanks to the two screens of the Nintendo 3DS system. A widescreen display on the top screen shows 800x240 pixel resolution, allocating 400 pixels for each eye to create the 3D effect. The bottom LCD touch screen operates at a resolution of 320x240 - with both screens capable of displaying a brilliant 16.77 million colors. Analog ControlWith the Circle Pad, located above the + Control Pad, Nintendo 3DS offers full analog control in 3D game worlds. Combined with the tou...

    5.0 out of 5 stars My first impressions of the 3DS XL, August 19, 2012

    This review is from: Nintendo 3DS XL - Red/Black (Video Game)
    Well, I just came back from Target about 30 minutes ago and I picked up my 3DS XL. I picked up the red and black one. As soon as I took it out of the box I could see that this was well worth the money. IMO, the overall design is much better than the original 3DS. When you open the lid, you a hear a click that assures you that the hinge is tightly fastened. The screens are beautiful and the size of them are great. The original 3DS's screen is dwarfed compared to the 3DS XL's as it's 90% bigger. The stylus is now on the side rather than on the top which I think is a better place for it, as it's easier to get to in the middle of a game. The outer shape seems to have a more rounded design than the original 3DS. There is no docking station for recharging this time but rather it went back to the original cord in the back. Also, if you have an old DS XL case, then the 3DS XL will fit in it. I have one that I bought from BB last week for $1.99. Also, the 3DS XL comes with a 4GB card rather... Read more

    5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, Nintendo delivers on the 3DS' potential (an in-depth look at the improvements and differences over the original 3DS), August 21, 2012

    If one looks at the 3DS with an unbiased, objective point of view, there is a lot to love. It was basically a next-gen successor of Nintendo's vastly successful DS console, with the horse-power of a console somewhere between the Gamecube and the Wii. It utilized a very cool 3-D effect that, when done right, really adds to the overall immersion of the gaming experiences available on it. Everything was an improvement on the original DS. Granted, it also had some caveats and issues as well. The 3DS XL does a very good job delivering the goodness of the original 3DS, while making vast improvements over its smaller brother original. In this review, I will focus on the differences and improvements this model makes on the 3DS line. I'll warn you right now, this is a long review. If you don't like long reviews, then you may want to skip this. :P

    Screen Size: With a title that includes "XL," obviously the increase in size is the biggest difference between this and the original 3DS... Read more

    4.0 out of 5 stars Big 3d Screen = Big 3D Difference!, September 5, 2012

    This review is from: Nintendo 3DS XL - Red/Black (Video Game)
    When it comes to "more", the 3DS XL is the perfect solution: each screen is nearly double the size of the original 3DS and the feel of peering into it is a bit more relaxing to my eyes than the time I spent with the smaller-screen original.

    If you're new to the idea of the 3DS, it is Nintendo's excellent follow-up to their handheld DS, DS Lite, and DSi consoles, with one huge difference: the top screen produces 3D visual effects without the need for any special glasses. This feature works very well, but there are some very important considerations when using either size of unit:

    - You shouldn't play more than an hour at a time without taking a break: this technology really can strain your eyes
    - While the American Optometrists' Association has cleared the 3DS sceen for everyday continuous use, Nintendo of America strongly urges that children limit the time they spend using the unit to short sessions, and that children under 7 not use the 3D aspect at... Read more
