Nintendo 3DS

Nintendo has also provided some technical features of its next console. Although the company has remained rather vague about the hardware, confirmed in an official way that Nintendo 3DS is backwards compatible with DS games, 3 will have 0.3 megapixel sensors (2 for photos in 3D and a higher close to the screen), which will to take pictures at 640×480 pixels. The devices also incorporate (in addition to a multi-pad), an analog stick and a Home button.

As for connectivity, Nintendo 3DS inherit all the fixes in DSi, including a SD card reader. The screens will have a 3:53-inch diagonal screen for the top and 3.02 inches for the bottom screen, respectively, with resolutions of 800 x 240 pixels and 320 x 240 pixels. The console will weigh 230 grams and has dimensions of 13.4 x 7.4 x 2.1 cm. The package sold in Japan will also include a 2GB SD card, stylus, 6 sheets of augmented reality, adapter and a docking station to recharge the console.

Nintendo 3DS should be marketed in Japan at a cost of 25,000 yen, that is just under 220 euros. By comparison, XL DSi cost 20,000 Yen at launch that is 175 euros. However, for the rest of the world and, more specifically for Italy, no price has yet been revealed.

• Advantages 

1. It comes with some pretty nifty features (with the noticed exclusion of pictochat) that you can have fun with, including the ability to take a picture of yourself and have your 3DS make a mii out of it. It also comes pre-installed with a couple quick and fun mini games.
2. Having a gaming system full of potential, and 3D gaming. 
3. Plays 3DS games
   Better graphics, including 3D
   Has a camera (but so does a DSi)
   Has augmented reality support
   Has a Virtual Console similar to the Wii's, but for handheld games (eventually, the service is coming)
4. Its 3d and new and everyone has one.
5. pretty much first 3d system and its glasses free
   3d pictures
   listen to music
   great features
   AR games
   gyrocenser
   motion sensing(i think the same as above)
   circle pad
   amazing graphics (better than wii)
   internet browser (coming soon and maybe can play youtube)
   eShop (coming soon and you can also buy gameboy games)
   mii maker
   looks cool
6. usage of AR cards which is pretty neat. and the game called find MII, its an RPG format game its amazing. and more AR cards are supposed to be comming up. and who knows what else is comming up. including DS Shop where you can get many GBC games and u believe also Snes. 

• Disadvantages 

1.  There probably won't be any good games coming out soon and not that many to begin with. Nintendo actually had no idea so many people would go for the idea (that's seriously quotable) so they don't really have much planned. Bottom line: If you can put up with the lack of 3D compatible games (you'll still be able to play your old ds games) and find some that you like you'll be well off. Plus the whole fact that it is in 3D thing is something you can brag about.
2. Lack of games available on it.
3. More expensive
   Lacks GBA support (but so does the DSi)
   DS games look somewhat blurrier than on a DS, unless you adjust the aspect ratio
4. Expensive
5. low battery life (i havent found this as a problem unless your on a 5 hour trip)
   some features not ready yet (most coming in late may or early june)
   terrible launch titles
   nothing else because this is the greatest handheld of all time
6. the price and that we have to wait till late May to get the next update on the system and see what new stuff brings
