Just check out the LINEUP for the 3DS:
Kid Icarus: Uprising, Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater 3D, Batman, Assassin's Creed,Resident Evil,Super Street Fighter 4 3D Edition, Mario Kart 3DS, Star Fox 64, and a remake of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time in 3D.
That's a monstrous lineup..... Holllyyyy shit. Resident evil in 3d???!! Fuck. I really hope this is some proprietary technology nintendo is using. If 3D truly is the next big thing, and nintendo can manufacturer or let others manufacturer tvs or something capable of 3D without glasses, they will have enough momentum to catch up with sony in producing fresh, new, great games (i.e. bioshock, assassins creed, GTA (sorta), God of war(okay, technically not exclusive but you get what I'm saying)).
i dunno i want to wait and see how these games actually are. right now this is just a bunch of franchises with no indication of game quality at all. a lot of htese franchises were on the PSP and DS but were completely garbage. i dont think 3D will change that very much.
edit: oh and assassin's creed and bioshock weren't made by sony or microsoft, they were made by ubisoft and 2k respectively
Yes that's true, my excitment got the best of me there. If the Wii were a "normal" next gen system, of course assassin's creed abd bioshock would be available for it as well.
I'm still suuuppppppppppeeeeeerrrrrr hyped up about it.
im completely nonchalant about the 3DS, mostly because I have both a DS and a PSP and I NEVER touch them becuase it's just a lost market (especially the PSP in that respect, even though I've played the PSP a whole lot more than the DS); if a team wants to make a cheap game it's just easier, cheaper, and has a better chance at success if they make it for the iphone (in the DS's case) or as a PSN or XBLA game (in the PSP's case). looks like the 3DS will be bringing the "best of both worlds" together in terms of DSeyness and PSP graphics, but i still dont see myself ever wanting to get a 3DS.

I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum. I'm JUST starting to get into handheld games now thanks to my iphone. Since the beta went down I've been looking for games to play on my iphone (Yeah, because I can't even imagine my life BEFORE the beta right?). A few days ago against better judgement instead of buying a well known game like assassin's creed, splinter cell, gta or even final fantasy on the iphone I went with a totally unknown (to me) rpg called Zenonia. Best life decision ever. I must've logged in at least 30 hours on it already, and I have two other classes to explore. I always wondered how the hell people could REALLY play a game on the tiny LCD screens you find on the DS and PSP. Now I know.
So add something completely novel and fresh like 3d without the glasses and I will be nintendo's bitch for the next year or so. I'm also confident that nintendo did not add the 3d as an after thought. I know that they will build games from the ground up, building the game around the 3d itself, making sure that its utilized to its fullest potentional.
As a person who lives in Korea and ride on the metro everyday for a long time, handhelds are a lifesaver to me. Believe it or not I couldn't buy myself a ps3/xbox/wii this generation not because I had no money but rather I had no time to play
For a fanatic gamer like me, Handhelds are what saved me this generation
Im grateful nintendo was actually able to pull off such a brilliant conference this year and as a diehard nintendo fan (hurr waggle) Im fucking pumped and I might actually consider buying a wii

Yeah, that's pretty common in Asia and other parts of the world where public transportation is huge. Last time I checked, Nintendo DS and PSP sales were a mile ahead of consoles in Japan. I remember watching a documentary on modern Japan's culture on Discovery Channel once and they did a short segment on how a lot of people (doesn't matter what age or sex) use handheld devices to pass time whether it's gaming, phone, or MP3 player.
I might get the Nintendo 3DS since I have never bought any of them (not even a GameBoy) in my entire life. Games such as Street Fighter, Resident Evil, and other games on the 3DS looks awesome.

indeed and sony should be at D+ along with microsoft... damn they both showed nothing interesting at all and in boring fashion.... cant believe how they both fell for the motion control trap >.< guess this is where the fanboys pay off... I almost wish i had a wii now, nintendo was great, but then again... when looking at the goldeneye gfx it seems to be taking me right back to the times when i had a P120 with 8 MB ram, damn that's one ugly game ;( ah well lets hope for better times to come >_<;

edit- apparently it's the team that made bioshock 2, not bioshock 1, so im not as optimistic about it any more lol
WTF is with that XCOM trailer? When I hear XCOM, I want modern high-tech research, squad-based strategy, base building, and all the things just like in the original "UFO - Enemy Unknown" and "XCOM - Terror from the Deep" MicroProse games. I definitely don't want some retarded 1920 Gangsters/The Thing/Ghostbusters crossover or whatever it is they just showed.

And only gonna get it with the kinect so i can feel godlike in my living room and fall in love with genki rockets trip out to electrocrack. [no sony even though i have ps3 im not going to buy ur silly homo wand move crap, i will buy a 360 just for it.]
I personally like the PS3 Move over the Kinect because it caters to a more "hardcore or adult gamer". The games for the Kinect are pretty much Wii clones. Comparing the Wii to the PS3 Move, the PS3 Move wins because of its superior technology.The Kinect cost like what, $149.99? The PS3 Move is being sold at $49.99 with $40 games.
Mark: I should qualify this by saying our primary goal is getting the game right. THQ fully supports us in this regard, and isn't breathing down our necks saying, "You must ship by a certain date!" They are nurturing this project and we are true to this project so that when we deliver it, it will be everything we want it to be and the community wants it to be.
With that in mind, we're shooting for right now to have the game shipped by the end of Quarter 1 of 2013.
ok so im basically going to just post my thoughts on the games that caught my attention the most (semi-chronologically lol):
gears 3 - I liked the 1st gears, the 2nd wasnt as good and was largely forgettable in almost every way (the only thing it improved on was that the gunplay felt a bit better with better sound effects and more satisfying guns). gears 3 doesnt look like it will be any better, just "another gears with more stuff" like 4 player coop (I dont even have 1 friend with a 360 let alone 3 so who fucking cares) and beast mode (lol like I'll ever pay for xbox live again).
halo reach - another halo game (thats a bad thing)
child of eden - as a HUGE fan of lumines I cant wait for this game. hopefully it will be as interesting to play without buying kinect though (and I think it will be).
killzone 3 - looks good I guess but so did killzone 2 until you play more than an hour and realize that guerilla games has some of the worst level designers in all of gaming
bulletstorm - pretty graphics and effects but looks insanely boring to play. looks like it will be really really easy and the only satisfaction will come from "wow look at these cool death animations!" which isnt really very fun to play to me.
littlebigplanet 2 - makes me wish I waited and only bought LBP2 instead of buying LBP1 and not playing it much at all. definitely looks cool and I might actually want to do the creation stuff this time, I'll wait and see though.
TWISTED METAL - OMG NEW TWISTED METAL CANT FUCKING WAIT. GAME OF THE SHOW
crysis 2 - looks like they consolized crysis a bit but I remain optimistic. crysis 1 was awesome and they are redesigning the aliens to be more humanoid (and thus most likely a lot more fun to fight than the aliens were in crysis 1, which was the worst part of that game). crytek promises that the AI will be "the best ever" and I remain pretty pessimistic about that, but I think that it will at least be improved which is a great thing.
rage - I really want to think rage will be good but I dont. gameplay looks really boring. hopefully they just decided to show their worst levels at E3 for some reason
dead space 2 - looks kinda cool i guess. maybe one day ill go and play dead space 1.
zelda - looks like zelda (and I never "got" zelda)
kirby - looks cool but I cant remember the last time I actually played and beat a platformer all the way through. fat chance of me ever playing this game though since I dont have a wii and dont ever plan on changing that
spec ops: the line - sounds about as intriguing as it did earlier this year, but almost no new information, no new gameplay videos, and only 1 new trailer. still think it could be cool as it seems like one of the few games at the show trying to do something pretty "arty" I guess, and plus it has greg kasavin (greatest game journalist of ALL TIME) working on it. that's always a good thing.
homefront - never heard of it until E3 but it looks like it has a lot of potential. I think the best way to describe it is half-life meets freedom fighters. check it out. gunplay already looks "good enough" and as long as they can keep up a good pacing and level design (which is very hard to do though) I think it will be pretty good. maybe I just have a soft spot for the premise though lol
mgs rising - new trailer only had like 15 seconds of gameplay footage but it looks pretty cool. I remain optimistic
fear 3 - fear 1 was one of my favorite games ever. fear 2 sucked (see my blog titled "what a waste" for details). fear 3 looks even worse. new developer (who SUCKS btw) and a complete misdirection on the design that goes against just about everything that made FEAR good. this game will be garbage and is a fucking disgrace to name of one of the best shooters ever made.
socom 4 - could be cool. I really miss squad based shooters (brothers in arms and freedom fighters were AWESOME) and I hope the squad stuff remains a big enough element in the game that it wont just be "another 3rd person covered-based shooter". also socom 2/3 was really good multiplayer for a console back on the PS2 so if they do things right this could distract me for a bit.
assassin's creed - assassin's creed fucking sucks. this looks just as bad as the others.
vanquish - didnt look TOO good and had a lot of rough spots, but platinum games is legit and I think they will pull it all together when it comes out.
epic mickey - seems pretty interesting and I can really respect what the game is going for but I can never see myself actually play it all the way through (just like how I am with the civilization games :\)
dead rising 2 - just like the 1st game: seriously, just watching zombies die can only be entertaining for so long before I want to kill myself. just like bulletstorm I feel this game is just for people who like to see gore and stuff on screen but dont care as much about satisfying game mechanics.
portal 2 - more portal but even more portalley. this is a good thing.
medal of honor - great reason why the game industry doesnt get the respect that it deserves (or does it?). even with DICE working on it's multiplayer I cant get excited at all.
need for speed hot pursuit - when i 1st heard that criterion was making it I got really excited. I read a preview and it sounded awesome. then I saw about 10 minutes of gameplay and it looks awful. that's too bad :\
call of duty - oh, the "other" CoD developer (not even the GOOD one) is making this one. from here on out CoD only goes further downhill (even though I think MW2 kinda sucked, I think sells and public opinion will start to go downhill now as activision doesnt have any talent at all working on it from IW and they plan on just whoring this IP out as long as possible)
xcom - could be good but i dunno, way too early to tell
holy shit that was so much longer than I thought it'd be omg
