3DS Handheld Console Officially Annlounced by Nintendo - - Offers 3D Gaming Without the Need for Glasses

Nintendo is going to launch officially its upcoming 3DS handheld console today, which offers 3D gaming without the need for glasses, at an event in Amsterdam. 

 

The 3DS' screen uses a special layer that allows each of the user's eyes to see a different set of pixels, producing a stereoscopic effect. Like previous iterations of the DS, it also has a second screen, in 2D with a stylus, and WiFi internet access. 

The 3DS' stereoscopic capability is viewed as a weapon for Nintendo in its battle against gaming on smartphones, which have become more sophisticated since the launch of the highly successful original DS in 2005.
