Once again, this information comes from the latest Iwata Asks. Nintendo president Satoru Iwata, Shigeru Miyamoto, and Shigesato Itoi.
Miyamoto: But Iwata-san also wants to include 3D video in the future! (laughs)
Iwata: I think it will be fun if we’re able to include video recording capabilities with future updates.
Itoi: I have no idea, but when you take 3D photos and videos, is there some kind of capacity limit?
Iwata: An SD card goes in this slot.
Itoi: Oh, an SD card! Like two gigabytes?
Iwata: It comes with a 2-gigabyte card, but you can, for example, use a 32-gigabyte one as well.
Itoi: Oh, okay, I see. So you seriously can take as many as you want.
Iwata: Yes. Long videos, lots of photos, they’ll fit.

The 3DS’s cameras allow the portable to take 3D photos, though their functionality could be enhanced in the future. In an Iwata Asks interview, Shigeru Miyamoto commented that Iwata is looking into 3D video recording for the handheld. Following that remark, Iwata noted that this would need to be done through a system update. Nothing is confirmed just yet, but I’d say this is a pretty good sign.
Thanks to Thomas N for the tip!
