Nintendo of Europe will be holding a live stream of the Nintendo’s 3DS event beginning at 3 PM CET. You can access the stream right here. We haven’t heard of a similar setup in North America, but we’ll let you know if anything changes.
The latest issue of Japanese magazine Friday contains an article regarding players’ experience while playing the 3DS at Nintendo World 2011. According to the magazine, many attendees felt dizzy within 10 minutes of play time. Others said that they experienced some fatigue eye fatigue as well. One man told Friday that he was forced to switch the system to 2D mode after playing Samurai Warriors: Chronicle for a few minutes. Although many players were interesting in experiencing 3D, apparently a great deal of people turned off the effect as a result of eye fatigue.
As would be expected, a number of participants suggested keeping the system in a fixed position to lessen the symptoms. It has been stated numerous times that the system has a sweet spot for optimal 3D viewing, and players can adjust the 3D affect by adjusting the 3D depth slider.
Whether creating the perfect sandwich or stepping into the boxing ring with wild animals, the latest additions to the WiiWare™ and Nintendo DSiWare™ downloadable game services are anything but ordinary. Doc Clock™: The Toasted Sandwich of Time treats Wii™ owners to a wild time-traveling adventure with an industrious, snack-happy hero. A demo version of the acclaimed BIT.TRIP BEAT game for WiiWare lets players sample its dazzling retro action for zero Wii Points™. For hand-held gaming fans, Glory Days – Tactical Defense brings rich military strategy to Nintendo DSiWare, while Animal Boxing pits the player against a passel of pugilistic critters against one another in the squared circle. Visit the Wii Shop Channel and Nintendo DSi Shop every Monday to discover an inventive, ever-growing variety of games.
