The way I see it, if the Gameboy Advance was a new platform that could play Gameboy games, then the 3DS will be a new platform that can play DS games. I heard something about an accelerometer...

A handheld with an accelerometer would be kinda dumb... what the hell would use it? Are you really gonna swing your hand-held?

[Kegan] A handheld with an accelerometer would be kinda dumb... what the hell would use it? Are you really gonna swing your hand-held? I think it'd have similar uses to the Pokewalker; essentially playing a game while not playing it.

It doesn't even need much, the camera is on the DS this time, so it just needs the infrared LED, and some small electronic transmitter plus the accelerometer. ...That would be awesome. cool

Some of you guys are thinking of gyroscopes.
Others are naming features that really belong in a peripheral.

Then you were setting them up for correction. xd Whatever it is, tilt control for a handheld could be really cool. Nintendo is obviously interested in that stuff since they've made three Game Boy games that have used it starring major franchises.

It uses an accelerometer for its orientation detection. Accelerometers are pretty nifty. I think Nintendo can do a lot with one inside their handheld.

I know the games that did use them (The Yoshi game I played, the Wario one I didn't) were fun.

digi734 Master_Glink Awesome Tree Meta_Fish Awesome Tree Bad choice of words. All I've seen of it is that it looks exactly like the DS, but the screens have a little more depth. It didn't look like that brand spanking new to me. There aren't any pictures of it at all. All we have to go off of is that it will allow for 3D gaming without glasses, it will be a successor, and then rumors. Iwata was also asked if the next D Swould have gyroscopes and GameCube like graphics to which he responded something along the lines of "That is a given, but is that enough to warrant a successor DS?" At this time I think it's rumored to have: -3D technology without glasses (among which there are many different technologies it could use) -Built in rumble -Longer battery life -No gap between the screens -Control stick -Gyroscope/motion control I think that warrants a new DS. I posted that before I realised that what I was referring to was a DSiWare game thing. Where'd you get all of that info? The only way I can see no gaps between the screens working is either the sides fold onto the screen, or some kind of swivel motion takes place. Wouldn't no gaps between screens be the same as ... One screen...? Yeah, but one half would be touch-compatible while the other half would not. I read somewhere that both the screens will be touchscreen.

They'll stop the DS after the DS Micro that nobody buys because of it's stupidly small screens.

Given that the Nintendo 3DS is suppose to be an entirely new handheld and given if the Nintendo DS goes on for a few years, I say it'll be going until 2014 or 2015.
