Watch 3D Films, Listen to Music, Browse the Internet, Stay Fit! - The 3DS is a portable media center. You can watch 3D Films without glasses, store and listen to a digital music collection, keep track of how much walking you've done to help you stay fit, and also browse the internet.
Do Multiple Thing at Once - For example, you want to check the internet for something on your 3DS but you don't want to lose progress on your game. So, you can just pause your game, and take a look at a website without any disruption to your game.

1. Just buy the damn thing Mr. Cheap
2. Uh, no it won't be since it needs special hardware to run the 3D. |
Am I the only one who isn't really interested in this thing? First of all, I bet it is going to be really really expensive, and I am not sure if I can afford to buy it with all the things I have on my list, especially that my parents want me to earn money rather than getting money, which is really hard for me. :\
Second of all, I honestly have no DS games but Pokémon. Currently, the only games released for 3DS are in my opinion uninteresting. Therefore, buying it without any game that I like is useless.

I am not saying I won't buy it...I like to test things in an emulator first then buy them,I know it's weird...but I do it for some reason...
Also,it can be emulative since there is already emulators for Xbox,Wii and PS3,I may be wrong though. |

But the 3DS is different. Everything known as "true 3D" in video games means that the graphics can be stretched and rotated like an actual object. The 3DS is like it's not just a graphic, if you know what I mean.

I'm in the middle. I mean, I'm excited for the new system itself, but I'm not all too excited for the inevitably large price tag, which I probably won't be able to afford. We'll see. The ability to turn off 3D is nice if I'm not in the mood for 3D. I'm interested in a few games coming out for it, and I'm in dire need of a new DS.
Is it going to be reverse compatable with DS games?

I really want the blue one, but I'm not sure why. In my mind, I think it looks horrible, but there's just something appealing about it. It may be because that's the model used in all the demos. I'd like the 3DS more if the colors were solid, though, and the top half wasn't always black.

Okay, now I don't know which color to get, Aqua Blue or Cosmo Black.... Oh the choices in life that make everything hard.
I do wish the 3DS would come out in more colors, though |
