From augmented-reality games to rich 3D visuals that don’t require special glasses, the Nintendo 3DS™ system offers a wealth of new hand-held experiences that must be seen to be believed. To give consumers a firsthand look at these unique features, interactive Nintendo 3DS Demo Pods and mobile Nintendo 3DS Demo Squads will be in select U.S. cities starting March 11, offering sampling opportunities at more than 40 locations in cities nationwide. Visitors are invited to explore the system’s built-in software and play upcoming games, all in advance of the March 27 launch date.
The Nintendo 3DS system includes built-in cameras that let users not only take 3D photos but also incorporate their own likenesses and surroundings into fun games, including the hilarious shooting game Face Raiders™ and compelling AR Games™ such as Archery. Built-in applications also include Mii Maker™, which makes it easy for users to create customized Mii™ characters wherever and whenever inspiration strikes – even using the Nintendo 3DS camera to help generate a Mii character based on a photo after selecting certain details like hair and skin tone.

Konno on Sony’s NGP, not sure if Nintendo will return to a single screen portable, more

Hideki Konno on the 3DS reaction in Japan…
“I actually left the day after it went on sale in Japan, so I haven’t actually go to hear any of that direct feedback yet. But I do have my own personal Nintendo 3DS, and from my house to the airport I turned on Streetpass, and the day after launch I got four hits or so. So there are already people out there using that function. I’ve looked at a couple things on the web, but I haven’t had the chance to sit down and thoroughly search for information, and I haven’t heard any direct consumer feedback from actual people yet.”
Konno on Sony’s NGP…
“It’s a bit difficult in terms of comparing the two systems. I think that our goal when we set about making this for our customers for us it’s to surprise them and create these new unique experiences. I don’t know that our goals are the same for one thing. As far as from a user’s perspective, I love these digital gadgets, so when the NGP goes on sale I’m sure I’ll take a look at it and see what software is available for it and what the system can do. Whether or not Sony or Nintendo through the launches of these two different hardware systems are trying to achieve the same goal that’s something that I don’t know. It’s difficult to speak to what they’re trying to do.”
