Foward to 5:57 and watch from then, its some gameplay(not cut-scenes) for MGS. Graphics look incredible, for a handheld. There's definitely a lot of power behind it.

Here;s how it worked for the 3DS: - Early 2010: "OMG next Nintendo handheld will be 3D." - E3 2010: "OMG games look awesome, awesome games with sweet graphics." (developers praise power of 3DS) - Today: "WTF specs are underwhelming, those sweet looking games no longer look so good."SaltyMeatballs

[QUOTE="KevinButlerVP"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] Its all unsubstantiated rumous, all of it. Even if the PSP2 exists, we dont know its specs. FOr all we know, its gimped hardware. So as it stands now, the 3DS is the most powerful, yes. No point arguing over it anymore.charizard1605

[QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] I still dont see many people criticizing the handheld, though. Barring a few, er, noteworthy users with whom I have been having the most amiable of all arguments, that is. :)

They still probably have a megaton or two up their sleeve. I'm calling a Virtual Handheld.Head_of_games

It was unveiled a few months ago.

Remember all the speculation on Wii and how it was "definitely" pointing to an early October 2006 release date and be no higher than $150? And yet here go the rumors and speculation leaning toward the positive...that 3DS will release early and be only $199.99.

My guess is March 2011 for $250 in U.S.

[QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="KevinButlerVP"] there is a variation which is the ipod touch, and it is a handheld

KevinButlerVP

see what I did there

Yeah but you can BUILD a PC with gaming in mind and you can BUILD a PC for editing/rendering in mind. My pc was build with Gaming in mind. The ipod/iphone is not a gaming handheld. And it doesn't matter if the "Leaked Specs" aren't impressive, have you seen the Resident Evil Revelations video? Quite impressive if you ask me and that's just the tip of the ice berg on what the 3DS can do.

To bad no American press, but hopefully some games get release dates.

This.

I'd say 3DS will become the best system of all time, everything from games to features is just amazing.

I remember rumours like that back when it was called the Revolution. There were people saying it was going to be $99 too :lol:

In 2006 all rumours and announcements pointed to Q4 2006 and the price being < $250

[QUOTE="SoraX64"]1 am? **** school, I'm staying up. :Pcharizard1605

I know I'm being optimistic but I hope it is released this year. Chances are slim though. Still, I can't wait to get it.

[QUOTE="SoraX64"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] That's the spirit :Dcharizard1605

Screw it I feel like being a fanboy right now. I knew 3DS would be awesome as soon as I heard they were showing it at E3. I can't wait for the US release date...I will play this until I won't be able to tell if i'm in the real world or playing a game. I never doubted nintendo for a second.

I bet its a lovely day at SCE HQ :DCuteCakes

I still like my good graphics, but never again will I make the same mistake. PSP2 can be as powerful as whatever, but 3DS will always be my choice since it seems Nintendo is focussing more on the games, and is getting serious with 3rd party support.

Zomg yeah gimme, my 3ds will go with me to the ends of the earth.

[QUOTE="crippled_ram"][QUOTE="SaltyMeatballs"] MOAR POWAH!! :P That's my guess. PSP all over again. It will probably have a touch screen now, or another analogue. If not then fail all over again.SaltyMeatballs

[QUOTE="SoraX64"][QUOTE="charizard1605"] Same here, it's the successor to my favorite system of all time, for God's sakes! :Dcharizard1605

[QUOTE="charizard1605"][QUOTE="SoraX64"] The thought of all the great new games to play on the go just makes my body tingle. :DSoraX64

The idea of Ocarina of Time on the 3DS is awesome but the idea of new content being added as absolutely mouth watering.

However I'm not sure I should get my hopes up...*points to 25th Mario Anniversary Collection Thingy again*

Nintendo can be pretty lazy sometimes.
