Nintendo has generally been able to pull off impressive usage of the 3DS’ 3D effect in its own games. But not all outside developers are on the same level. That begs the question: is Nintendo willing to help out third-parties in implementing the 3D sensation?

Satoru Iwata, responding to this topic during Nintendo’s latest investor’s meeting, said that the company shares knowledge of how much to separate the eyes’ perspective and put little stress on the eyes – when asked, that is.

Iwata’s comments – in summary form – are posted below.

“Gained lots of know-how on how much to separate eyes’ perspectives and put little stress on the eyes. How successful software has done this is shared both within the company and with other companies when asked. No tool to indicate 3D limit. It’s up to humans to tell what the limit is for 3D volume. Player experience varies depending on the place. Some like low vol., others high. 3D volume adjustable in games, but fixed in downloaded trailers. The non-adjustable volume may not be fulfilling. Up to dev, but supporting.”

A summary of Iwata’s response can be found below.

“Many ways to use networking, including online play, which requires being on at the same time. Miiverse shares exp. With further development, you’ll be able to send your play data to Miiverse for others to download and play against at a different time. This sort of feature will vary depending on network usage.
