Template:System-Infobox The Nintendo 3DS is an upcoming handheld console that will be the successor to the Nintendo DS series expected to be released on late 2010 or early 2011. The console will have a 3D display without the need for glasses (known as autostereoscopy), using Parallax Barrier technology[1]. The Nintendo 3DS was shown for the public during the events of the E3 2010 in Los Angeles, California, coming in metallized colors, and the upper screen slightly wider than the bottom touch screen.
The prime feature of the handheld is the 3D display, which is shown in the upper screen of 3.5 inches. The Nintendo 3DS also includes a camera on its inner side located at the top of the upper screen and two outside over the lid, giving the capability to take 3D photos and also 3-Dimensional videos. A 3D depth slide, a motion sensor and a gyroscope were added for the handheld, and an analog stick on its inner side along with the direction pad. Some buttons were moved such as Select and Start, that are found currently below the bottom touch screen. The power button is now located below the A, B, X and Y buttons. The new button Home, which allows users to enter directly the system's menu, is found between the Start and Select buttons. The handheld also is able to find Wireless Connection spots and other Nintendo 3DS automatically for online play[2]. It is backwards compatible with DS and DSi games, although, as with the DSi, Nintendo DS games cannot make use of extensions that used the original DS's Game Boy Advance slot which the 3DS lacks. Some games have been announced for the 3DS, including: Paper Mario 3DS, Mario Kart 3DS, a new Kid Icarus Uprising, Nintendogs + Cats, a new Animal Crossing game and a Template:Zw remake.
Confirmed colors include blue, red, and black, but gold and purple have been shown at E3[3]. (All 3DSs have black inner upper halves.)
