I went into my local store in the UK earlier to get some info about midnight launch for the 3DS and was lucky enough to have get to play the 3DS that the guy had behind the till, it was his one and he had already opened it. I got to play Rayman and Asphalt but only for a few minutes for each one.
The 3d effect at first is quite blurry but once you get in the right position its really good but viewing from any other angle just makes it look super blurry so its no use trying to watch someone else playing. The 3DS itself looks good, alot smaller than the DsiXl if your used to that and chubbier but not too bad. The console I played was the Aqua Blue one and it doesnt really look very blue compared to alot of photos, its quite green infact and looks like the older Gameboy Colors.
The games I didnt really get the chance to try out but from the few minutes I played they seemed ok, the 3D effect really changes them but the graphics were nothing special though it was only Rayman and Asphalt.
I was also told the UK release date for Zelda OOT is the 8th of July, not sure if anyone new that or if its old news but thought I would mention that too.
Im really excited for it now, getting the black one which I didnt get to see today, and think im going to pick up Rayman 3D and PilotWings Resort.
Whats everyone elses first impressions of the console, Im worried they might get grubby quite easy as it seemed quite smudged and the Matt effect on the DSi's is much better then the glossy ones.
