E3 2010 is still running at Las Vegas and we are glad enough to give you some of the latest innovations featured on the stage. Yesterday was the time for Nintendo to present the next Gaming device, called 3DS.
Nintendo released DS in 2004 and changed the way users experienced games. After that, another major release was the WII console that was the first motion controlled gaming console.
This week at E3 the new portable gadget sends Gaming industry to the next level: 3D.
The top screen is an LCD display with 3.53-inches and supports 800 x 240 pixel resolution. We almost forgot to tell you, the display has 3D view, whom can be activated or deactivated by switch button located on the right side(400 pixels are allocated for each eye to enable 3D viewing). Above the 3D screen is situated the inner camera and on the sides there are Stereo Speakers.
On the control side of the gadget, there is a secondary 3.02-inches LCD touch screen with 320 x 240 pixel resolution right in the middle(4 inches telescoping stylus is included ). On the left is the “Slide Pad” that allows a 360-degree analog input and the Control pad (with four buttons) while at the right there are the four usual console buttons(A/B/X/Y). Under this screen we will find Select, Home Start buttons and right near the Power button.
At the left side of the 3DS we have volume buttons and SD card slot while at the right side is the Wireless switch than can be used even during game play to turn on or off wireless(2.4 GHz band) communications. Users can connect to LAN access points and play Games together through Wireless and IEEE 802.11 with enhanced security (WPA/WPA2) is also supported. The jack port is on the bottom side of the control side part.
Other things to remember: 2Gb internal memory, two outer camera(on the back) with 640 x 480 (0.3 Mega) pixel resolution, gyro sensor(same as the iPhone 4) and motion sensor.
At the end we’ll show you what games will be on Nintendo 3DS soon, but we are sad because we didn’t found out anything about the date launch or an estimating price.
