Nintendo has done it again. 3DS its new handheld console, besides the three dimensions, adding sufficiently attractive to repeat past successes like the Wii or Game Boy with their legendary Pokémon. "There is another console, the console that starts a new era of entertainment: the 3D," he said yesterday in Amsterdam Satoru Shibata, president of Nintendo in the continent.In an event where journalists from across Europe invited by the company, could not shoot the 3D display where all the consoles were tied to furniture or walls and Nintendo staff had hung from the belts. So Nintendo made public a secret. Apparently, in these circumstances it seems that Nintendo may be placed in another dimension, namely in the third.
For decades subjugated children with their Game Boy, DS then your laptop, then the dual touchscreen and up to camera. Since its launch in 2004, has sold 130 million DS units worldwide. Then he jumped to a second dimension to achieve what no one: to attract adult players, if not early retirees and elderly people.
Brain Training series and attracted an audience not only alien but until then, contrary to the entertainment game. Nintendo also pioneered the current consoles wirelessly and without controls. The Wii will put as a leader among home consoles, I'd never been, it was an empire with its exclusive Sony Playstation.
Your Wii again attract a family audience. After the command arrived Move Kinect Sony and Xbox 360, progress on the path opened by Nintendo. The 3DS is the first console game in three dimensions without the need for glasses. Will ship in Africa on 25 March, a month after Japan. Officially there is no price, but will be around 250 euros, far more expensive than the current DS.
Instead, developments are many, and not only in 3D. The device itself comes with a larger screen for the 3D effect is greater, it also adds a button as a more precise control, among other skills, can move the camera. The console has two cameras, one for shooting pictures in three dimensions.
The 3D effect of the screen can be altered, even abolished. Also new is an external pilot, which lights up when he catches a wifi network. In software substantially improves connectivity and access. The code recorded on one occasion is sufficient to connect to other players. Until now it was cumbersome and had to register each time.
One of the biggest bets is called Street Nintendo Pass. It basically consists of an easy exchange of files and content, wherever they are. The system opens the door to a new generation of exchange of cards. Because, according to Shibata said, the console wants to be something more than a gaming machine.
Nintendo bet because it is a device that is carried everywhere, so the two cameras, but also the connectivity, access to social networks and multimedia content. Have reached an agreement with Eurosport to provide content, and Shibata said that soon will close one with the Sky. In the same vein, filling the console content, not just games, David Sproxton, president of Aardamn, creators of the film Rise of the farm, among others, will work with the adventures of Shaun The Sheep.
Yves Guillemot, president of Ubisoft announced the collection of titles in your company and come prepared for this console, including Erayman, Tom Clancy, Shadow Wars, Asphalt, Dinosaurs, Driver Rabbids or Renegade. "I'm a fan of this console 3D. Some time ago we created a special team to it and these are its first fruits." The most spectacular images are those of the study with Konami football game Pro Evolution Soccer (PES).
The air passes and achieve a deep sense of space that had not been seen before. The cameras, as explained by two of the developers of the game, are behind the player's head or on it, giving the game a great depth and realism. The virtual player feels a player next to Messi. The straight ball does not impossible, but it takes parables and effects.
Deviates as in reality. Nintendogs, the game kennels (now cats), adds 3D capabilities. The dog recognizes the face that he put forward, and will lick, or bark if the owner or not. Nintendo has games based on augmented reality, Invizimals style of Sony. Another of the best games that take advantage of three dimensions is Steeldiver on submarine battles, where it seems that the periscope is in our hands.
Nintendo aims to sell one and half million consoles in the first month in Japan, which goes on sale in late February, and by the end of March, taking advantage of its sales in Europe and the United States, four million in total. Success seems assured, but depends on the price and games that take advantage of three dimensions.
