Talk:Nintendo 3DS
Please remove the delete template. The source given clearly states that ""Nintendo 3DS"(temp) is going to be the new portable game machine to succeed the "Nintendo DS series". This is a separate thing. Uniju :D 18:24, 29 March 2010 (EDT)
- I'm sure it's just a mistake. It's called a Nintendo 3DS, so it can't be a successor. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- I beg to differ. It also clearly states several times that the name "Nintendo 3DS" is a temporary name that is only being used during development. And you obviously won't be able to play 3D games on the old 2D consoles. Besides, it's the only lead we have on the console, why should we assume there is a mistake in it? Uniju :D 18:30, 29 March 2010 (EDT)
- I also forgot about all the Game Boy consoles. All right, I'll remove the tag, but you might want another oppinion before we do anything definite. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- Nintendo made an official announcement, so I think its okay to remove the tag. Even if its not a "successor" it shouldn't be deleted. YosharioFile:Yoshi wearing mario's hat.jpg

Merge into Nintendo DS
I mean the DS lite is merged, the DSi is merged, why not the 3DS. KS3 (talk)
- WHY DONT YOU LOOK BEFORE YOU SAY SOMETHING? I mean, come on! There's a discussion about this right above you! Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- Calm down Reversinator. I agree with KS3, it uses the same games, so it's still a part of the DS series. If this has its own page, then the DSi should also have it. --
™ The 'Shroom 10:59, 10 April 2010 (EDT)
- Sorry. It's just that this is about the bajillionth time KS3 has asked to merge something without either looking at previosu discussions or at the article itself. Hello, I'm Time Turner.
- Calm down Reversinator. I agree with KS3, it uses the same games, so it's still a part of the DS series. If this has its own page, then the DSi should also have it. --
Honestly, I don't think it's that wrong - he added a header, just a bit extra, not too bad. Besides, this classifies what the discussion on this page is about instead of having a bunch of section less talk like I see everywhere else. Anyhow, yes, if that's how we've been doing it that's how we should do it. Marioguy1 (talk)
I actually think that the DS, DSi and 3DS deserve their own article. Why must they be merged into one article, as the Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance have their own? rend (talk) (edits)
- Looking at the Gamey Boy & Game Boy Color having seperate articles despite being not all too different besides the latter being faster and able to display more colours, I actually agree with at least the 3DS deserving its own article, as the differences here seem to be of a comparable degree to the GB/GBC differences, not to mention Mario games are being made specifically to take advantage of the system's capabilities. As evidently not everyone agrees on this, however, perhaps a proposal should be set up and this article reverted to a redirect for the time being (unless it was already made into an article as the result of a proposal, though I don't remember any)?--vellidragon 15:13, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
- You know, I compared the normal DS with the Game Boy (as they are the originals), the DSi with the Game Boy Color (as they are advanced versions with own games (although there are no DSi Mario games)), and the Game boy Advance with the 3DS (as they are even more advanced versions with physical additions, and own games as well). The DS Lite and the Game Boy Pocket and Game Boy Light are just slightly enhanced versions of the originals with no special additions, as so does the DSi XL, who is just a bigger version of the normal DSi. Maybe there will come an slightly enhanced version of the 3DS, which could be compared with the GBA SP and Game Boy Micro.

REading Arend's comment, here's what I propose.
- Have Nintendo DS, info about the original, and the Lite versions will be covered here. It will also cover the stylus, and stuff like that
- Have Nintendo DSi, which would cover DSi and DSi XL
- Have Nintendo 3DS.
Thoughts? --™ The 'Shroom 18:42, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Here's my thoughts on this, and they're very simple. The Nintendo 3DS is a SUCCESSOR. It plays COMPETELY DIFFERENT games. If you think THIS should be merged with "Nintendo DS", then holy freaking crap, the Wii should be merged with GameCube because, oh my gawd, it plays Game Cube games.--TheUltimateKoopa 17:38, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
Exactly, they shouldn't be merged. The 3DS plays completely different games (in 3D, duh) and Nintendo already said that "The 3DS will not just be an enhancement to the DS, it will be a completely new console."
Young M. Luma ••• 18:24, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
Hey both of you, look at their date of the argument. Its more than 3 months ago when nt much was known about the 3ds (in fact when it was first annoucned), so that arguement is outdated. They probably know that now.
- ...Oh. Now I feel like such an idiot. I should really look at those dates more often...

Release date
I'm aware that many of you are aware that A release date of November 20, 2010 has been leaked. No, I did not accidentally hold the Shift button when I said "A release date". I emphasized the "a", because it is not necessarily THE release date. I should also point out that November 20, is only a leaked 'release date', and that we have had absolutely NO confirmation from Nintendo. Therefore, until September 29, i.e. until Nintendo officially announces the release date, please leave the release date in this article's infobox as "TBA". Even if the release date actually turns out to be November 20, 2010.--TheUltimateKoopa 16:21, 14 September 2010 (UTC)

If you want me to, I can translate the Japaneese text on the detailed picture of the blue 3DS into English. Well, most of it. MarioManiac (talk)

Euro?
Should we put the price in euro?It would be about 270 euro and euro is bigger than pounds, so I think it shouldnt be neglected--Smileymiley5001 15:14, 11 February 2011 (EST)
NO VIRTUAL CONSOLE... yet.
I was fooling around with Google, looking up info on the 3DS, and it said the game boy and game boy color games will NOT be avalible upon release, just thought i could mention this.
References
I'm no expert on this, but there's a template at the top of the article that says references are required. There's a big section in the middle of the page full of stuff like new capabilities, announced titles, and battery usage, all of which has no references. Isn't that variety of stuff usually to be cited?

Recording 3D Video
From what I see in this video: http://nintendo3dsblog.com/the-nintendo-3ds-can-record-videos-in-3d it is confirmed that the 3DS can recond video. I'm not sure if it's reliable or not, but I just wanted to give a heads up. McQueenMario
- Well, we can add this if it isn't added. Every single thing the 3DS can do, even if it can bake pickles for you, we add it. And I think I heard this before.
Compatability?
Do the 3ds cartriges work with other ds games?DooPliss42 19:57, 28 February 2011 (EST)
- If you mean can you play 3DS games on the DS, DS Lite, DSi, or DSi XL, the answer is no, but you can play games from any of those systems on the 3DS (in 2D). Mario4Ever (talk)
New games
Both aren't confirmed, but there's a hope. SWFlash
- Do you think there will also be a Super Smash Bros game? SKmaric (talk)
- I don't know. MarioManiac (talk)

Gyroscope?
Does anyone know how the 3DS has a gyroscope? I don't know what a gyroscope has to do with hardware, or how it will even fit inside a 3DS. Or is the gyroscope a virtual feature like a channel?--Holyromanemperortatan 17:03, 16 March 2011 (EDT)
- It is a form of motion control. I can't tell you its composition, but it looks like it will be used in upcoming games. For example, in Steel Diver, moving the 3DS changes the viewpoint of your submarine. Mario4Ever (talk)
- Thx!--Holyromanemperortatan 20:48, 16 March 2011 (EDT)
Bit
I've found that the Nintendo 3DS uses ARM. Accordind to Wikipedia, all ARMs are 32-bit. So it has a lot less than 256-bits. SWFlash
I think it has to do with the graphics, not the ARM. Toad85
Augmented Reality Games
Once the 3DS has been in circulation long enough for people to have played the system's current AR games, are these going to be mentioned here in an appropriate section, or will each get its own article? I'll be getting this thing in a few days, so I'll be happy to provide information that isn't already covered in the meantime. Mario4Ever (talk)
- No AR Mario games has been announced. I don't think someone will. SWFlash
Cosmos or Cosmo?
The article mostly says "Cosmos", but I won't be sure til somebody knows the correct name for the black 3DS, thank you.

03:53, 26 March 2011 (EDT)
- In PAL regions it's Cosmos, in NA it's Cosmo. We should use Cosmos because PAL region was first to release the handheld. SWFlash
Fishbone?
can a fishbone really be caught or is it just a genric dead fish? Lu-igi board
It is a genuine mario fishbone,it looks exactly like the NSMBW ones,also green shells can be caught yoshiyoshiyoshi
AR Games needs an article
AR games is mario related with mario things in it(mario,fishbones,green shells,lakitu,bloooper) so it needs an article! SSB stuff is on it so why not AR games?
The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yoshiyoshiyoshi (talk).
- I don't think the AR feature of the 3DS uses Mario in its games to an extent that warrants anything more than a passing mention in the trivia section at this point. Mario4Ever (talk)
AR Games
What exactly are we going to do about making an AR Games article? Several people, myself included, briefly discussed the best solution, but we left it without a clear consensus... Bop1996 (Talk) 13:57, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
- Perhaps we can summarize what the player has to do in each game in general and then mention the Mario-related information where applicable? Mario4Ever (talk) 14:08, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
- That would work, are we going to create a new article or do it on the 3DS section? BLOF suggested using {{Main|article name}} and putting the info on both... Are there any objections to that? Bop1996 (Talk) 14:22, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
- None here. Are we planning on using images from the AR Games themselves? Obviously, any uploaded from the SD card would be in 2D, and I've got one of Lakitu and Blooper, since (using Play Coins) you can unlock the option to take photographs in-game. Mario4Ever (talk) 14:29, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
- We could have one of the Mario AR Card itself, and for the 3D images, we could put a note under the thumbnail saying that the image is 3D, but is displayed here in 2D... Bop1996 (Talk) 14:52, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
- I don't think the thumbnail is necessary (at least in terms of mentioning 3D). Photos are only 3D when the 3D depth slider is on. If a photo is taken in 3D, turning off the depth slider turns it into a 2D image. I think we just need to mention that it is a 2D image. Mario4Ever (talk) 14:56, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
- Ummm, do we use a classify the AR Games as a game, or just a hardware feature like the gyroscope? I only wanted to mention it if the pictures you took were in 3D, if you took them in 2D, then there's no problem there... Bop1996 (Talk) 15:13, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
- I understand that the extent of the Mario related features is the Mario enemies/items in fishing, and the Mario AR card itself... Maybe just listing it as a hardware feature would be best... Bop1996 (Talk) 15:22, 10 April 2011 (EDT)
- Well, Nintendo's website [1] considers them built-in software. As for other Mario-related content, the Graffiti tool allows you to trace Mario's head (I've actually done that and photographed it), and there is a stamp of an 8-bit Mario in that feature as well. In any case, I believe our hands are tied until the proposer takes action. From what I've used of the AR Games, it doesn't appear as if this article, if and when it materializes, will have much in it. BLOF's suggestion will suit this article well.

I sent Yoshiyoshiyoshi a message reminding him that he needs to take action... I agree, there's not much we can do, but we can do it well, and that's what matters... I'm going to wait for the proposer to take action, or to ask for help, then I'll work on it. Bop1996 (Talk) 15:55, 10 April 2011 (EDT)

Trailer
In the trailer, there is DK Barrels. Does that mean we can add an unconfirmed DK game? DKPetey99TCE 11:51, 26 April 2011 (EDT)
- No, and that trailer is really nothing more than a humorous way of showing off the 3DS' 3D capabilities. When a DK game is announced, we'll add the appropriate information, but until then, we do nothing. Mario4Ever (talk) 15:00, 26 April 2011 (EDT)
Europe and Australia eShop
I get the idea that the eShop is coming out June 7 in PAL regions, because I haven't gotten a notification for the system update yet. SKmaric (talk)
- I think it's already been confirmed that it will come out on June 7 in PAL regions. However, in NTSC it will come out on the evening of today; that's what my 3DS said. Yoshiwaker
Super Smash Bros. Strife?
Read through this. I don't know if it's the official, but it may be featured at E3. Supremo

3DS Startup sound
I have a 3DS, and the section with the menu sound saying it's the sound you hear when you turn on your 3DS is inaccurate. It isn't what you hear when you turn on your 3DS, but instead what you hear when you switch from a running application to the home menu using the home button.
Hopefully sometime, I'll be able to correct it and upload the real startup sound. Just letting you guys know.

Split Photo Together with Super Mario
This talk page section contains an unresolved talk page proposal. Please try to help and resolve the issue by voting or leaving a comment. |
Current time: Sunday, September 8, 2024, 19:36 GMT
What?! the first Mario-centered 3DS application gets a only section in the Nintendo 3DS article whereas AR Games, who is not Mario-centered at all, gets a whole article? Pretty obvious why I'm proposing to split it into a whole new article, it even has a sub-page: a gallery to be exact. In case someone opposes this, take in consideration the following: we have articles for Mario Clock and Mario Calculator, the only two Mario-centered DSi applications, and they aren't a mere section on the Nintendo DSi article, in fact, they aren't even mentioned there!

- Byllant (talk) - You all know why.
- Mariofanatic64 (talk) - It belongs in its own article, it's a Mario app, Mario and Donkey Kong has its own article and they both follow the same criteria (and that app isn't even out yet). Just because it's currently a Japan-only title, doesn't mean it shouldn't get its own article.
