Yes, just recently Nintendo released an image of the Nintendo 3DS:

Nintendo 3DS (Blue)



Nintendo 3DS (Red)



Nintendo 3DS (Grey)




So, what do you think of this?

Dang it, Nintendo. Quit being so wonderful. I ain't made of money.
Also, Nintendo won E3.
Heh, can I get an "Amen"?

Still sad to see no Black and White news. The Black 3DS is my favorite. Hopefully, it's matte instead of glossy.

I am reserving myself a red 3DS the moment they hit the stores. I think they said at the Conference late 2010? That basically means Christmas. Happy Christmas to me!

But yeah, I'm a little peeved they didn't show more of the physical console at the Conference for people who were live-streaming, but it looked nicely-built, compact, and sturdy. I can't wait to hear more details about its games...Kid Icarus looks brilliant, as do Mario Kart and Nintendogs & Cats, but I'm in the market for some RPG's. O:

How's your thirst for adventure, Captain?

There's something I really don't like about it. The assymmetry normally isn't a problem, but I'm bothered by how the top screen dwarves the touch screen. They also could've made it easier to grasp, but I'm not complaining that much since it wasn't particularly hard to grasp in the first place. The analog stick should be better than the PSP hopefully. It looks dull otherwise, but let's hope it won't be the next virtual boy.

Lol, if remakes and Mario are all it takes too woo you, then Nintendo basically won every E3 conference since those are the only good things they're coming out with these days.

The asymmetry sort-of bothers me too now that I study the pictures, but I wonder if you just get used to it whilst playing?

It's made by Nintendo. That's your problem, right?

I want the new Nintendogs game and Paper Mario as well because Paper Mario has always been like a pop-up book so it would be good in 3D. I don't think that Kid Icarus looks very good though I saw the trailer and it is nothing like the original Kid Icarus.

The original Kid Icarus looked like this.

Spoiler:


I doubt anyone would approve of that. ;] And they were using Pit's Brawl design. It looks good on him. "Eager" describes it fairly well. As far as actual gameplay goes, my only worry is that it'll end up playing kinda like that one Star Fox.

Okay I think it looks fun but it's like a completely different type of game to the original. I think it's good that they brought the series back though. Maybe they brought it back because a lot of people found out about Kid Icarus because of Super Smash Bros. That's how I found out about it, and then I downloaded it on the Virtual Console!

I'm definitely getting the blue one. I like the new analogue stick and addition of a home button, but I think the new locations of the Start/Select buttons could be slightly annoying. Also the fact they've flipped the side that the power button is on will probably annoy me to begin with, but that's just cause I'm used to DSi.

It had me at Ocarina of Time remake.

I won't be getting a 3DS, just because 3D burns my eyes.

Kid Icarus though... I'm a huge KI fan so I had a huge fangasm when I saw those pretty screens. I'm interested to see how the gameplay comes out - I doubt it'll be anything like the original Kid Icarus but they might implement certain elements to make it more interesting.

Monoeyes o.o

Despite not being fully related to the 3DS, Golden Sun: Dark Dawn looks awesome too. I can't wait to get my hands on these games.
