Update: Added a few more details below.

“[The 3Ds] no health issues. We are working with the experts in the field. We’ve done extensive testing. We have a legacy of bringing only the best and finest products to the marketplace. We will recommend that very young children not look at 3D images. That’s because, [in] young children, the muscles for the eyes are not fully formed… This is the same messaging that the industry is putting out with 3D movies, so it is a standard protocol. We have the same type of messaging for the [1990s Nintendo virtual reality machine] Virtual Boy, as an example.” – Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime

“Has there ever been a Nintendo handheld without a good battery life?” – Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime

According to Reggie, the “young children” label applies to kids younger than seven. But the nice thing about the 3DS is that you can use the 3DS Depth Slider to completely turn off the 3D effect. So, everyone should be able to play the 3DS in some form!

– Form factor of the 3DS shouldn’t be considered final
– Nintendo plans to manufacture the extendable stylus at E3
– Nintendo still deciding if 3DS will be region locked

A lot of gamers have classic memories with the N64 game that you don’t want to mess with. The developers will have to find the right balance of remaking certain parts of the game and keeping portions of the original title in tact.

“I do not think that there is an immediate need to replace the Wii console. But of course, at some point in the future, the need will arise. We currently do not have an answer as to what point in the future that need will come.” – Satoru Iwata

Just if I had to guess, I don’t think we’ll see a Wii successor for at least two years. I don’t think Nintendo would want to take away anything from the 3DS!

Soure

Maybe this is just me, but I think people are making too big a deal out of this. Nintendo is probably just messing around with Mother fans!
