I am really pleased with my Nintendo 3DS and I am enjoying the 3d. I previously had the DS and this is so much better. I am still learning about it but I know it will give me hours of fun. It was easy to set up too.

We bought 2 of these for christmas - fantastic. lets hope teh kids dont spot the wear and tear ! Miles better than the DS Lite, real easy to set up and loads of controls for parents as well.

this is the 4th ds i have purchest kids love them very easy to use and the new colours are great searched web and found zavvi to be one of the cheapest with great delivery time.

Great console, gorgeous blue colour, ideal christmas pressie!

I personally didn’t like the 3DS when I first tried it I played it for 10 minutes in a local game shop using the Augmented Reality Cards (AR) and walked away not impressed at all. I thought the screen wasn’t clear and very blurry and felt because of this playing the games where very difficult. I left with sore eyes and a sore head and didn’t think much of the machine at all and thought it wasn’t worth the price. However my son kept going on and on at me to buy one with this and the release of Zelda and a bit of a price drop on the console itself I thought I’d give the console another go so I went out and bought one. I can honestly say I was wrong about the 3DS. Once you see what the 3DS can do and once you get used to the 3D it is a very impressive piece of kit. When you first start up the 3DS you’ll go through a short setting up process which will help you calibrate the screen and show you the best sitting position for the best viewing and 3D experience for yourself. This will help get rid of that blur and distortion I mentioned before. Once set up you’ll find various apps already stored onto the system including: A 3D Camera the quality is ok and it doesn’t have a flash but in the right lighting conditions you can get some really nice 3D images Nintendo 3DS sound where you can record your own sounds Mii Maker to create your own Mii's There’s 2 games one which you will need AR cards that are provided with the console. Using these cards and the systems camera you play a variety of mini games including shooting targets and a sort of marble madness style game. There is also a game called Face Raiders where you can take pictures of family and friends and shoot them with balls whilst they fly round your living room. Once you’ve done a quick software update you’ll also have access to the eshop where you can view 3D trailers and download classic Nintendo and dsi ware games straight to you memory card. As well as the above the 3DS also has a built in pedometer, can be used to explorer the internet as well as play and compete with friends online there’s also a log to keep an eye how many steps you’ve walked how long you’ve been playing games and used the software etc. The 3D effect depends on the game your playing I own 4 games currently Zelda and Street Fighter which both have fantastic 3D effects these are games you’ll want to play in 3D however the other 2 games I currently own have ok 3D effects but don’t stand out as much as Zelda a SF4 and it wouldn’t make a great deal of difference playing these with the 3d switched off. 3D on or off though the graphics for the games themselves are a significant improvement over the DS. I’ve downloaded 3D trailers for Mario Kart, Mario, Star Fox and Resident Evil on to the 3DS all 4 look fantastic in 3D so I’m looking forward to those and hoping developers will take their time in releasing good looking 3D games rather than just rush games out to build up a decent sized back catalogue. The beauty of the 3DS though is you don’t have to play in 3D (although that’s the whole point I guess) if you feel like the 3D is getting to much you can switch to 2D my son doest like playing in 3D at all and prefers playing in 2D however I’ve constantly got the 3D switched on now that I’ve got used it. Having the 3D on though will drain you battery allot quicker but the 3DS does come with a handy doc station to charge the system or you can just plug it straight into the wall and play whilst charging. I’m glad I gave the 3DS a second look I’m quite happy what I paid for it and there are some fantastic games due out within the next year I just hope we get a Mario game sooner rather than later.

An amazing product that easily beats all other current hand-held consoles. At first it does put quite a bit of strain on your eyes and can give you a slight headache, but bear with it, because after you find your optimal viewing angle you will be simply blown away by the capabilities of this nifty little guy. Even the additional features that aren't optimised for 3d like the web browser and e shop work really smoothly and are entirely satisfying. 5 out of 5 stars and totally worth the money I paid for it.

The new Nintendo 3DS, is the most technological console portable. You can think, why? Well, this incredible console has in it's hd the 3D technology installed, working with no need of glasses. Now you can think, just it? It Also has the same technology included in Wii and PS3, the motion sensor. What more to say? Well... just, to explore more this, you will need to buy!

I went on one in game station and it was amazing I couldn't believe my eyes and the ar cards were amazing they work like a dream so cool then I went on face raiders and that was top quality 500,000,000 stars amazing
