More information, and the final model, which is a bit different from the E3 prototype.
Someone is going to jail to bring you this information, I hope you appreciate it.

I don't.

It honestly is too reflective.

I agree.

you do know the final model was seen way before this

If you paid attention, this one is subtly different. The start and select buttons have been changed.

it's still been seen before, like a couple days before this guy stole it

he might not have even of stole it

you can see it says Dev Mode, why would a developer model be on the normal assembly line

they are already pretty sure it wasn't an employee


Oh and does anyone even know that you can preorder the 3DS already,
i wasn't going to tell you guys because i like being mean

had mine done for couple weeks now

Shows off a few seconds of gameplay from the majority of the interesting lineup so fa.r

I'm really excited to see Paper Mario.

I want Tales of the Abyss.

http://nintendo3dsblog.com/only-4-million-nintendo-3ds-units-to-be-shipped-before-march-31st

if you really want one at launch you better preorder now

Apparently, the 4 million units shipped is for the entire year, making 84's point much moreso.
Other news from the nintendo world stream conveniently compressed to one video:
http://blip.tv/file/4615533
notable:3-5 hour battery life, a depleted battery will take 3.5 hours to charge.

For comparison, the DSi had 12-16 hours of battery life, and the DS Lite 14-19.
The PSP had 4-6, as well.

I'm sure people are over-reacting about the battery life, however short I'm sure that the 3-5 battery life is at the highest volume, brightness, ect.

and 5 hours isn't that short, for long car rides you can get a power inverter for a car to charge it

and I doubt the 4 million units is for the entire year, for a few months possibly but Nintendo wouldn't miss out restocking in time for the holidays

Here Iwata somewhat talks about it

x to x amount of hours generally means how much you'd get out of a system on its highest and lowest settings, respectively. The DS Lite had 14 on maximum brightness and 19 on lowest brightness, for example.
So I'm pretty sure it really means 3-5 hours.

And they probably will, but the point was preordering is important if you're going to get one anytime before the end of the year.

Tons of news from the U.S. and European events today.
Nintendo 3DS delivers 3D video playback capability, 3D photography AND 3D display of those pictures.

Nintendo 3DS can act as a pedometer. Earn Play Coins & trade them in for new content in compatible games and applications.

Face Raiders is a pre-installed game that’s built by taking your own picture and inserting it into a shooting gallery, of sorts.

More Software coming with the system: Activity Log application that tracks movement and virtual action, The games you're playing, and for how long, and the aforementioned pedometer.

Not one, not two...but six AR (augmented-reality) cards. View AR cards through the 2 outer 3DS cameras and games sprout up in 3D!

Nintendo 3DS will also feature an enhanced Internet browser and a 3D video player for pre-produced content.

the 3DS version of virtual console includes demos and videos, and is overall more streamlined

Internet browser. 3D video player. Audio software of DSi will be pre-installed too.

Comes with a charging cradle, rather than a cord.

All of this is official.
Sorry for the sloppy format, I hurriedly typed out most of this on my twitter.

quite a bit of those besides release date and price are not breaking news

the ability to take 3D pictures were known almost as long as the 3DS has been known

number of AR cards was already known too

but who cares $250 is a great price

You Can Now Preorder on Amazon Also


you're chances of getting one by just going to the store at launch are slim
