Nintendo held a press event in New York Wednesday to finally unveil the launch details of its much-anticipated new 3DS portable console in North America.

The 3DS will launch for $249.99 on March 27 and come packaged with a 2GB SD card, a charging cradle, and six augmented reality cards, called AR Cards. There will be two colors available at launch: Aqua Blue and Cosmo Black.

Pre-installed software will include:

Nintendo 3DS Camera: Take 3D photos with the 3DS' outer camera, and manipulate them with a variety of different lenses.
Face Raiders: An augmented reality game where you shoot at virtual targets that use a facial photo you take.
Mii Maker: Much like it is on the Wii, but now with an automatic generator based on a photo you take.
StreetPass Mii Plaza: "The place where Mii characters meet and greet," allows you to exchange Mii data with other 3DS owners.
Activity Log: Like on the Wii, the Activity Log tracks which games you've played and how long you've played them. It also acts as a pedometer, tracking your footsteps in exchange for Play Coins, compatible with certain games.
Nintendo 3DS Sound: This acts as both a sound recorder and an MP3 player. And since it's Nintendo, there are sound filters and effects to play with.
AR Games: Using the included AR Cards, these games use augmented reality tech to put in-game objects in your real world environment -- through the camera's lense, of course.
Nintendo eShop: A digital storefront that allows you to buy DSiWare software, new 3DS-exclusive downloadable games, and classic Game Boy and Game Boy Color games via the Virtual Console.
System Transfer: This will allow you to transfer purchased, downloadable software either from 3DS to 3DS or from DSi to 3DS. There is, of course, a limit on how many times this can be done, but that limit has not yet been announced.
Internet Browser: This is what you use to read 1UP.com on your 3DS.
Some of the pre-installed software, while technically included on the 3DS, will not be activated until a software update comes post-launch. This includes the 3DS web browser.



The first-party Nintendo games tentatively scheduled to be available around launch will be:

Pilotwings Resort
Nintendogs + Cats
Steel Diver
No word yet on a launch date for either Kid Icarus: Uprising or The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D.

The following third-party games are scheduled to be launched either on launch day or in the following weeks:

Dead or Alive Dimensions
Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 3D
Madden NFL Football
Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition
Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D
Asphalt 3D
Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs 3D
Ridge Racer 3D
LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars


In all, 30 titles will be available between launch and E3 on June 7.

The Friend Code system returns, though in a simplified fashion, as there will be only one code per system with instant registration. No longer will individual codes be required for each game, it essentially works like an Xbox Live friend request.

Awesommmmmmmme.

Though I don't think I'm going to buy it at launch. A soccer game I own on a more powerful console is not enough to pique my interest at this point. Though portable SFIV is cool, I could always get it for PS3 also.

Once a few more things come out I'll look into it and see.

This is the first time I've genuinely been excited for a launch console since the 16 bit days. This is something I'm going to have to get on day one, for sure.

I'm not too fond of the 3DS concept, but to keep it civil, I'll only really post about the things mentioned in the OP.

That announcement is a mixed bag really, which frankly I expected slightly better.

I personally believe 250 is far too much for any handheld, even when new(handheld pricing should be capped at 200). The 2GB SD card pack in is nice, but I would rather the handheld be cheaper, besides most people that had a wii or DSi, have SD cards anyway).

The AR card thing, is most likely a dumb marketing ploy, which will end up being underused(remember the eReader lol).

Miis are dumb, I really wish Nintendo would stop wasting time on such features

Eshop, and the dl transfer system is a must, Nintendo would epically fail, without that feature. However damn, one can only hope they have better 3DSware, then they DSiware.

GB, and GBC downloadable games= about ******* time, you should've done that from the start of the DSi. Also if they're smart, they'll eventually have GBA games as well. However yea, this is a great feature here.

While not needed, the MP3 player is pretty sweet(it would be awesome if it played midi as well), because the only other option, is a overpriced iPod(omg, 3DSs will be flying off the shelves in Japan, just for the MP3 player addition lol).

Internet browser, completely unneeded(you know, without the AR, and internet browser feature, they could've easily lowered the starting price to 200).

Also what happened to the amazing Launch lineup(no smb game, zelda, Fzero or Star Fox 3D at launch, really???), It's a sad day in hell, when SF 4 is the best anything. Really aside from Pilot Wings, and SF 4, the lineup is forgetable at best.

All I have to say is, if Nintendo doesn't get the other games out the gate, as fast as they claim, Nintendo is gonna bomb big time on the 3DS. It would be better if they delayed the Launch of the 3DS, then have a sorry linup like that.

I was really excited about the 3DS during E3 but now I'm thoroughly underwhelmed.

The launch catalog absolutely anemic compared to what was promised and there's no way I'm paying $250 for a handheld. I don't need any of the other features it has. Not a lot of people have the cash to blow right now and we're far away from the holiday season so I'm not sure how well this launch is going to go over. Then again the original DS had a pretty terrible launch too so maybe in a few years when they inevitably release the redesign things will be better.

And I noticed it's coming packaged with the charging cradle and not an AC adapter. That is bullshit. I said in another thread that playing while charging was a big concern and they pointed me to information stating that it was coming with an AC adapter though this press release says it isn't. Undoubtedly Nintendo will eventually charge you another $10-15 for one.

Thumbs up for a new Pilot Wings though. It's about time. I'm excited to play the 3DS and see what it's like but I don't want to own one at this time.

I forgot to mention the price - that's a huge issue for me, and could potentially be the only thing stopping me from getting one on launch day. FWIW I took a look at an inflation calculator and the same machine would cost 440.00 in 1989 (Genesis Launch).

No no no... Your doing it backwards!

$250 now is like getting something for $142 back in 1989!

http://www.usinflationcalculator.com/


Edit: Example 3DO launch price was $699.99 in 1993 -- That just like spending $1,056.31 on a new console today! THAT'S CRAZY!

No, I get it. I meant the perception of spending 250.00 back then would be like spending 440.00 now. I just didn't word it right. =P

Well that doesn't make any since. Cause obviously times were different back then.... If the 3DS came out in 1989 it would only cost $142... @ $250 today with the same production cost and marketing minus the inflation would be only $142 back in 1989...


A better analogy...

Game Gear - 1991 - launch price - $150 ~ inflation in 2010 ~ $240.15 Right on point with the 3DS!

lol ok, you win. My brain is fried today. :)

I want NOTHING to do with the Fad that is 3D.

It is coming with an ac adapter, says so on Nintendo's 3DS site. 1UP left it off for some reason.

I really don't give a damn about the 3D aspect of the system, but it's nice to get some new hardware after 5 years, even if it's not really much more powerful than a PSP.

Still, the $249.99 price makes me wince a bit. If there aren't at least 2 decent launch games I'll wait until later in the year. Hell, the regular DS has better games coming for it than the 3DS will have anytime soon.

Damn, I missed the price... LOL... $250 for something that's less powerful than the $170 PSP.



And some of you are willing to support that price point...
I don't get it.

Lol speaking of which, I pre-ordered a DS game the other day, needless to say yea, there are still awesome games coming out for the DS(a subpar fighter, and Pilot Wings being the best Launch titles, Isn't really gonna have the 3DS flying off shelves).

Wow. Whatever gave me the idea I'd be spending DS money on this. :? Looks like I'll be getting this three or four years down the line then.

...no matter. I won't be missing much throughout those few years. It already appears that this new Machine of the Future will be as shovelware friendly as the DS (and Wii). Yaaay. :)

Ehhhh...that $250 price tag is a no go for me. Especially for a handheld. I'll try it out on a demo kiosk when it comes out. If I like it, I'll be patient and wait for that price to drop.

Nintendo overcharges because of there million of suckers fanbase they proudly own.

$250 is just perfect. I travel abroad a lot for business, so portables are important to me. I don't mind giving just $250 to Nintendo for all of the fun they gave me since childhood, and the hours they killed for me flying back and forth over the Pacific countless times.

So, it's settled then. The handheld will only be affordable if you're so crazy rich you could afford to fly back and forth over the Pacific countless of times since childhood.;)

ssf4:3d..i want it. but 250 bucks price tag, i'll have to skip it at launch.

I'm kind of surprised people are reacting so negatively to the $250 price tag, especially considering most people here thought it was going to sell for $300 a few months ago. But I guess that's like saying "why are people angry about paying $4 per gallon for gas? It was supposed to be $5 a gallon!"

Honestly, it's not an unprecedented price thanks to the PSP, and one I think is pretty fair considering the tech. And no, I'm not a fanboy, just someone who had a great experience with the DS.

My big concern is with the launch titles. Despite the lack of quality titles, I don't think the 3DS is doomed to fail like some posters have implied/stated. Does anyone here remember the original DS launch? I do, as I bought the system a week after launch. Remember classics such as Feel the Magic xx/xy, Spiderman 2, and Metroid Prime Hunters demo? You don't? Lucky you.

At least the DS launched with Super Mario 64 DS, which was an almost decade-old game lacking analog control that was universally panned (I actually thought it was pretty fun, and found the analog simulation through touch-screen to be great if you could conquer the learning curve).

I think that's why I was expecting the 3DS to launch with Ocarina of Time. It just made sense when taking the original DS launch into account. But if it's not happening, at least there are a few games I am excited about.

Pilot Wings Resort looks fun. I've always loved the Pilot Wings games, and I think the Mii-makeover works. Supposedly it's one of the few games that really utilizes the 3D tech, as you're able to better account for space when attempting to land on platforms. That said, Pilot Wings has always been about displaying new tech/controls.

Super Street Fighter IV looks excellent, and seems like the only confirmed day one launch title. I'm a sucker for the series, so I may be a bit biased, but I passed on Super Street Fighter IV for consoles, and I'm glad I did. Playing on the go suits my tastes better, and I look forward to going online with the game.

Believe it or not, I was pleasantly surprised with the extra features of the 3DS. I LOVE that there's only one friend code that you're going to have to deal with, the AR Cards look interesting (though history says they'll probably go the way of the eReader), Street Pass may be more exciting to me than others as I live in San Diego and regularly attend Comic Con, and the operating system looks like an upgrade over the DSi.

Call me an optimist, but I'm pretty happy with Nintendo at the moment. Portable gaming has always been about giving a different experience than console gaming, which is something Nintendo (and recently Apple) only seem to understand. The 3DS is something new and different, and I'm looking forward to getting my hands on one.

I agree with this post.

I have never seen such a bunch of whining babies when it comes to pricing, an argument which I have never really been able to get behind. There have been consoles I have waited to buy, such as the PS3 and XBOX360, but I never stomped my feet like a little child about it. I am not necessarily saying anyone here is doing that very thing, however, complaining about a brand new system (sorry, but contrary to some peoples popular belief, this IS a brand new console, it is not simply "another upgrade" to the DS.) which is utilizing up and coming technology (3D without glasses? Well, I wouldn't have it any other way.) by a company who is well known for, at the very least, creating a quality product which is not prone to malfunctions, and which they will be continuing to support, not to mention, one that has backwards compatibility with a system with a HUGE library of games, 250 dollars is nothing. I don't see what it being a handheld has to do with anything whatsoever.

I will concede that the launch lineup is lackluster for me personally. I am almost compelled to get it just for some portable, 3D PES, and Street Fighter, but these are games that exist on other consoles already. I would much rather see some nice exclusives that I cannot get anywhere else, and even though it looks awesome, I am not talking about an Ocarina remake. I am going to wait, not because it is too expensive, but because I want something on it that I will really be compelled to play with. I am still using my DS Lite, which happens to be my favorite console ever made (Sorry Genesis, but don't worry, I love you and I will still play my 80+ games which I own for you on a regular basis.) so maybe by the time I buy a 3DS, the hinges will have worn out, and it will be time for an upgrade.

You guys need to stop smoking crack, because these launch titles are insane.
SSFIV? DOA? RE? Pilotwings? Maybe even Kid Icarus and Zelda?
SICKKKK!
Compare this to the DS launch titles. Or heck, compare this to launch titles for any other handheld.
And what the hell is wrong with the price tag?
DS used to be like, what? 200?
This is PHREEE-DEEEE! So there. Justified.

The title I'm really looking forward to (and this is probably coming from out of left-field) is Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked. That and Paper Mario 3D. Both offering a deep experience.

When you say it with that kind of enthusiasm, I am actually compelled to agree with you.

Not all of those will be at launch, though. The decent launch games will probably be Pilotwings, SF4, and DOA. I love portable fighters, hopefully they are playable with the Dpad. The DS Lite's dpad wasn't great, but it wasn't totally horrible for fighters either.

By Christmas we'll probably have Zelda, Kid Icarus, MGS3 and (hopefully) Phoenix Wright vs Prof. Layton. That's pretty fucking sweet.

Not to pick on you, but can you explain the premise (and praise) of this series to me? I just don't get it (getting old).

A brand new PS3 with the 250 GBer will run $350 (least it was when I bought it, may be cheaper now).
A brand new 360 with a 250 only ran me $300.

vs.

$250 for a portable device that has some of the ugliest Jaggies I've ever seen on a system, not to mention will probably be surpassed by another iteration in the series within 6-12 months and the new one will also cost $250+) making this unit go 'way' down in price almost immediately.


Yeah, go ahead and support that price point, but at least know what you're supporting.... a crazy price.

Doesn't mean anything coming from the guy that thinks 50 bucks is too much for GT5.
You probably buy clothes at goodwill.
And what's wrong with SFIV?

Lol... I don't buy clothes very often. They're not as fun as video games and fast cars. Try again, Toto.

Have you ever played Phoenix Wright? It's hard to describe why it's so awesome. It's really a digital comic, and a highly entertaining one at that. The first game is hard to come by on DS, so if you have a flash cart (or an Iphone, it is available there also) give it a try. You'll know by the second case if you are going to like the series or not.

Professor Layton is pretty much a puzzle game with a bit of a narrative wrapped around the various brain teasers. It's cute and entertaining.

When I first saw the trailer with Phoenix and Layton pointing at each other I geeked out a little.

Um, It's the true meaning of meh, you look up meh in the dictionary, and you see that game listed.

Horendous char redesign(so bad, it makes the new Sonic look good), the roster is meh, the better char are rediculously hard to unlock(wouldn't be a big issue if the game was awesome to beginwith, but it Isn't), nothing new whatso ever, and clearly all the effort went into graphics over gameplay (This is crap you would expect from Square, not Capcom, so it was a huge dissapointment, that no one saw coming).

It's hands down one of, if not the worst SF game, It's pretty bad, and there is no reason in hell, anyone should choose to play a meh SF game, when there is a ton of awesome SF games out there.

Hm. I've never been a huge SF fan so I don't have much to compare it to. Though a friend showed me the 3rd game the other day in MAME, and it was very good...nice animations, etc.

I am more a fan of games like Guilty Gear, Blazblue, and KOF. But I still think SFIV is decent, and can imagine it being pretty cool to have in the palm of my hand.

How can a game be gay? Does it like other games of the same sex?

I'm tired of the homophobia oldschool. If you want to get childish, I'll go there: at least I don't have to come to a forum to beg people to play online with me.

Hmm. Might have to give it a try. Thanks for the info.

There's a difference between 'asking' people to play and 'challenging' people to play.


Enjoy your japrpgs, gaylord.
