This information comes from Ubisoft brand development director Damien Moret…
“Ubisoft has a strong partnership with Nintendo, and we’ve invested in creating compelling games for the 3DS – we currently have more than 15 3DS games in development. Nintendo does a great job of creating markets around their new ideas. With Street Pass, the 3D camera and rendering and other innovations, they’re in a great position to do it again with the 3DS. Put those things together with Nintendo’s existing handheld install base, and our expectations are that the 3DS will be an even bigger success than the original DS.”
It’s true that Ubisoft has given a ton of support to the 3DS so far, but quality is much more important than quantity. We’ve only seen one real standout title from the company thus far – Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars. On the other hand, projects games as Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs and Asphalt 3D are terrible for the most part. I’d like to see Ubisoft take a more active role in producing fantastic content for the handheld, unlike the path they took with DS with saw a great amount of low-quality releases.
Accessory company GamingZap has created a brand new product for all of us 3DS owners out there called the “Hed Saver”, which is either some alien term I don’t know or a very deliberate misspelling of “Head Saver”. Take a look:
“Despite how great it is, the 3D display (as with all 3D displays) has been known to cause dizziness and headaches amongst some users. This can be extremely uncomfortable meaning that you have to actually take a break from playing on the new 3DS! GamingZap has now come to the rescue with the Hed Saver Cooling Patch, specifically designed to relieve you from the headaches and dizziness that can be caused by the 3DS. With a special blend of materials designed to get you feeling refreshed and focused again, the 3DS Hed Saver is just what you need to go with your Nintendo 3DS. It will bring you back to full health, ready to game again.”
I’ve had zero problems with headaches and dizziness on the 3DS, and I think the same is true for more people. Anyone out there have an intention to get one of these…?
