Excitement for the Nintendo 3DSis starting to gear up! You can now pre-order the 3DS at your almost any of your favorite gaming stores, including Amazon.com, GameStop, Walmart, Best Buy, and more!

With the announcement of the 3DS, Nintendo has introduced gaming on-the-go in 3D – without the need for special glasses!

Similar to the rest of the DS family, the bottom screen on the 3DS is a touch screen that uses a stylus control. But the top display screen presents 3D visuals to the naked eye! That’s right, no need for 3D glasses!

The system utilizes a depth slider to allow players to select the level of 3D that suits them the best. The 3D effect can be cranked up to the highest level, scaled back to a moderate setting, or even turned off completely. The 3DS also includes a new control feature, called a “Circle Pad,” which provides a full 360 directional degrees, giving gamers the freedom and precision necessary to maneuver in 3D worlds.

Built-in motion sensor gyro sensors react to the motion and tilt of the system, so motion-compatible games for the Nintendo 3DS respond instantly to the player’s actions… twisting, tilting, bouncing, and more!

And, of course, with all this exciting new hardware comes amazing new Nintendo 3DS software and games, using the system’s souped-up processing power to deliver an unparalled gaming experience!

There have been dozens of new games announced already, and there’s definitely something for everyone. Titles like Super Street Fighter IV 3D,  Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, Madden NFL Football, Super Monkey Ball 3D, and lots more, will all be available when the Nintendo 3DS is delivered on March 27, 2011.

And your favorite Nintendo DS game download site will be right there with the best of them, making the latest and greatest 3DS games available at a huge savings off what you would pay if you purchased them at retail prices.

The world of 3D electronics is breathless with excitement over the upcoming Nintendo 3DS — a portable 3D gaming system that requires no glasses and promises simplicity and elegance for gamers looking for a 3D gaming experience. With the release of the first prototypes at E3 2010, there can be no remaining doubt that the era of quality, effective 3D gaming has finally arrived.

How Are They Doing It?

There are a number of 3D-without-glasses technologies currently available, but at the moment Nintendo is closely guarding their 3D secrets. However, the fact that the depth of the 3D effect can be adjusted using the slider button suggests that some sort of light diffusion is happening directly in the console.

Other New and Improved Features

In addition to the implementation of 3D technology, there are several other advances that will be featured in the new Nintendo 3DS:

• Leveled-Up Wi-Fi – 802.11n. The 3DS will spotlight an improved Wi-Fi system-to-system design that will allow the transmission of data for games that you are not even currently playing to other 3DS devices in the area — an awesome quality for collecting Pokemons, and similar game elements.
• Accelerometer. According to several mainstream Japanese news sources, the 3DS will include an accelerometer — also known as a “tilt sensor.” This technology is used in the Apple iPhone and iPad to sense screen direction.
• Three cameras. Two facing out for 3D picture-taking; one facing inward toward the user.
• Much faster processor for higher-quality graphics.
• 3D control stick, better battery life.

Look for the new Nintendo 3DS to debut in Japan in time for the 2010 holiday season, followed by a U.S. launch in March 2011.
