  • 3DS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!):<­

  • nintendo dsi or xl

  • 3ds

  • dsi

  • 3ds

    

  • Instead of the 3DS or the DSi, I actually prefer the DS Lite! So I can play gameboy games + Guitar Hero

  • iphone 4 beats the 3ds. Like 5x the processing power, around 8x the ram, a lot more memory so you can store your games on the phone, better resolution screen, instead of etc im just gonna say better everything. You can play games including but not limited to: nazi zombies, assasins creed, dead space (was awesome), need for speed, sims3, madden nfl 11, rock band, battlefiend: bad company, mortal kombat, skate, mirrors edge, and the almighty tetris.

  • is it worth trading my DSI for a 3DS?

  • 3ds, definately because you get to play dsi and ds games in 3d and 3ds games.

  • dsi xl hands down biggerr weighs less and the stieolist is were it should be on the side the 3ds's is next to the game slot and only plays 3ds games so people if you want a 3ds check out the dsi xl cheaper to.

  • @TheThejdude It plays ds and dsi games too lol

  • @TheThejdude you're wrong that it only plays 3ds games

  • I have both systems. I think the dsi has a little of a slite edge. The 3ds is more of a stay home device . This is because it is hard to play in 3d while walking. Plus the dsi is easier to grip on. But the ui and software on the 3ds is awesome. But if your just looking to play I say just get a dsi.

  • @mak31tra1n I have no trouble walking around with the device, in my opinion it is a very portable gaming system.

  • You want to know why your eyes hurting when you play sireusly this will help in the 3DS there is a 3D test in the options if you click it and turn the 3D on than you will see that you eyes are not hurting while you play anymore

    ^This is also happens when you buy for yourself a 3DS^

    It worked on my friend when i did this<<

  • 3DS 3DS 3DS 3DS 3 D SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.!!!!!!!

  • I hear that the 3D gives you a headache, I don't see how 3D is so great. a DSi is fine for what it has.

  • i played 3ds its ight but dsi is way better it has a better look too it and i think better camera dsi is awesome

  • sry i did it twice and on the second post i put luigis mansion. i ment luigis mansion 2

  • 3ds won cause of these games that are coming (ill list them in order). super mario 3ds paper mario 3ds mario kart 3ds luigis mansion 2 3ds zelda ocriina of time

  • 3ds won cause of these games that are coming (ill list them in order). super mario 3ds paper mario 3ds mario kart 3ds luigis mansion 3ds zelda ocriina of time

  • @tacos1501

    Soo like 5 games make a whole console better?And arent the mario things the same on dsi just in 3d?

  • OK. I NEED U 2B MORE SPECIFIC, BECAUSE I CAN NOT TELL WHICH IS 3DS & WHICH IS DSi APART

  • @Skullkidixx 2 cameras=3ds (outside)/and above the top screen(inside)

    1 camera=Dsi (in and out) Inside camera situated on the hinge

  • I have a 3DS and i can say its an awesome system. Ya, the 3D can get tiring after a while, but it is cool. And if you tire out on 3d you can play on in 2d.

  • 3DS IS CRAP, played for 30 minutes and started to get a HEADACHE!

    NGP all the way!

  • @EnforcedSteam You are meant to take brakes and when u don't need to use 3d anymore slide it down. Not always just the systems fault

  • i have to say the 3ds is way better even if you dont buy a game with it you can still get some games from the e shop or you can play games with the ar cards and the dsi cannot do that

  • 3ds is better because the legend of Ocarina of time 3d !!!

  • @00HoZweMu00 no n64 wuz better

  • hum..... 3DS / camera on the front , 2 camer's on the back used for taking 3D photo's (and video recording soon) great online that rape's the dsi's online , better graphic's and game's coming it's way , better stylus , same buttons but with a better feel to them , also theres a slider pad (analog stick) the abillity to display full 3D without glass's , plenty of free content with it to keep you busy , a shop to buy app's and old nintendo game's , backwards capatible with old ds games.....yup

  • i like the 3ds it cool i think a really cool part is the AR games they look awsome

    also there re-realising 2 N64 games they are OOT (orina of time) and star fox 64

  • 3DS is better because it has more cameras than the DSi

  • 3dddddddddddddddddssssssssssss­ssssssssssssss

  • 3Ds

  • of course 3ds

    

  • Pendejo

    

  • you forgot the army green 3ds!!

  •  wow u are so stupid 3ds man

  • 3ds

  • Nintendo 3DS

  • @darthelghastN7 Could you do me a favor and stop sucking on fanboy cock.

  • I think 3ds is better

  • DSI Is The Beast

  • if you want to like the 3ds,s 3d then get pilotwings resort and nintendogs + cats

  • NGP fails because PSN is shutdown. Anonymous PWNED SONY!!!!

  • i have a 3ds and the 3ds is way better

  • I do say - Nintendo DS Lite. Why?

    BEACOUSE IT'S FRIGGIN COMPATIBLE WITH ALL MY GAME BOY ADVANCE GAMES AND GUITAR HERO!

    Remember, Bigger screens does not make better Console. (Or 3D screens)

  • 3ds wins

  • @superaaronreview98 No! dsi XL!

  • 3DS ...FTW!!!

  • myspacebarisbrokenbearwithme

  • i played for like 15 mins on the 3ds and i wasnt impressed, you have to sit in a right way to get the 3d to work otherwise you only see 2 screens not becoming one and its hurting your eyes and head.

  • @FunkyStuffD es you have to hold it a certain distance away from your face. I think it's 15-20cm away, otherwise it makes you Look cross-eyed :)

  • @FunkyStuffD what game were you playing if it was pilots wings resort that game is terrible in 3d

  • 3DS

  • 0.00 volume scared the shit out of me  D:

  • 3ds is like switching from game boy advance to wii

  • 3ds is the best thing ever !!!

  • why are you comparing a newer generation console to an older generation console? The 3DS was designed to be better than the DSi in every way possible. Period.

  • @TranceCore3 Because some people do not see the the point of 3D, and don't want to spend that extra cash

  • @freakout119 I did NOT get it for 3D I got it because of its games :)

  • It's not about the 3D. If you're buying this system because of the 3D, then you're gonna be disappointed. Period. It's about the games the system has to offer.

  • @TranceCore3 Dude have you even seen the battery life comparisons? Sure the graphs are effing epic and the 3ds has 3d but the batter lasts about 1/2 the time of the DSi, how is it designed better in every way possible?Question Mark.

  • @azazazazazaz45 mine lasts me 2 days of full on gaming

  • @TranceCore3 Its not better though, period.

  • It is better. Period.

  • @TranceCore3 no its not, i own both and never touch the 3DS, the screen size alone is pathetic. Period.

  • Screen size is bigger than the DSi's, and the resolution is much much higher. Also, 3DS has a superior Dpad. Try playing Mega Man ZX, or Battle Network 5/ Star force on a DSi, and tell me how hard it is use hit diagonals.

  • @TranceCore3 the DSi XL is larger

    and the resoultion of 800 isnt higher, its 2 screens overlapping its 400x2, one for each eye.

    do your homework please "Thats how 3d works, its half of the advertized resolution"

  • The native resolution of the Nintendo DS is not even anywhere close to the 3DS. Just because the screen is bigger on the DSi XL doesn't make the resloution. Look at the DPI on the DSI XL and compare it. The resolution is not higher. Period. Go do your homework before you try telling me I'm wrong. Why else does the 3DS have to stretch DS games.

  • DS Native Resolution = 256 × 192 px

    3DS Native Resolution = 800×240 pixels (400x240 per screen)

  • @TranceCore3 stop saying DS, i said DSI

    and its the other way around 192x256. and 240x400

    but what does that have to do with screen size? Dot pitch will be off, its not "TRUE" 240x400

    learn your LCD technologies before you talk to me. start with Dot Pitch and go from that.

  • Uh, it's not the other way around. It's width x height. So it's 256x192 and 800x240. Your way is saying they're all taller than they are wide, When they're not. You seriously have no idea what you're talking about.

    Screen size is irrelevant in this conversation. We're talking about resolution. the 3DS has a higher resolution than the DSi. The DSi XL has the exact same Resolution as the DSi. The only difference is that the DSi XL's DPI is lower, because the pixels are bigger.

  • @TranceCore3 its the other way around

    google [ Dot ] .ca /#hl=en&cp=15&gs_id=1n&xhr=t&q­=DSi+Screen+Resolution&pf=p&sc­lient=psy&site=&source=hp&pbx=­1&oq=DSi+Screen+Reso&aq=0&aqi=­g1g-v2g-j1g-m1&aql=&gs_sm=&gs_­upl=&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.&fp­=96755e692637c07b&biw=1680&bih­=878

    stop being so stupid, u cant be this dumb.

    and i said DOT PITCH, not DOTS PER INCH.

  • I know you said Dot pitch. If I cared about that, I would have commented on it. But we're not talking about any of that. The argument is about Resolution. No matter how you want to see it, the 3DS has a higher resolution than the DS, DSlite, and DSi systems. And seriously. Resolution is width by height. You're the one who's being stupid. If you seriously think I'm wrong, go ask your math teacher.

  • “resolution

    hardware – the maximum number of pixels that can be displayed on a monitor, expressed as (number of horizontal pixels) x (number of vertical pixels), i.e., 1024×768. The ratio of horizontal to vertical resolution is usually 4:3, the same as that of conventional television sets….” Google works wonders.

  • @TranceCore3 That still has nothing to do with "DOT PITCH"

    witch is the actual sharpness of a screen mesured by the space and angle of distance

    BETWEEN each pixel.

    your still not listening, or your too ignorant in your own way to actually pay attention to whats being said.

  • Lol. You're the one bring up irrelevant stuff. I'm not paying attention to it becuase it doesn't matter. This entire argument is about Resolution. Why can't you understand this. I don't care about dot pitch, Pixel Size, and Screen Size. The 3DS has a higher resolution than the DS. I don't give a fuck about what you're talking about, because It doesn't matter. Let me say it again:

    We are talking about Resolution.

    We are talking about Resolution.

    We are talking about Resolution.

    That should help

  • @TranceCore3 Your talking about resolution.

    I was not, which is why your an idiot

    the first comment i ever made had nothing to do with that

    not sure what your trying to prove here, but you need to get over it

    the DSi XL is the better system, has better and sharper image, regardless if the DSi has a few more pixils.

  • 3DS

  • 3ds is not worth 250 dollars, get a fucking Ps3 or Xbox instead if your gonna spend that much. But other then that just go with the good old DSI, or wait a while for the price to drop on the 3ds, dont listen to these people who say 3ds just because its new or looks cool they have no idea what they're talking about.

  • 3ds

    

  • dsi

  • @Gameguy720 Uhmm actually it IS in 3D(: so dont complaain when u havent seen wat the real thing looks like.And TESTED the 3D efect.

  • dsi 3ds is not 3d they just added a camera stupid nintendo

  • @Gameguy720 lol try to play w/ 3ds u can see the 3d effect there....and u saying 3ds dont have any 3d i think you should go for the demos

  • @pivotXPpro 3009-8085-2489

  • @Gameguy720 it actually is 3d....

  • obviously the 3ds

  • 3DS big time dsi is in the past mine 3DS is cosmo black :)

  • DSI is for impatient people 3DS is the future.

  • i hate the 3ds becuz i get a dsi to be caught up with the crowd and they come out with this 3ds abomination. jerks

  • dsi mainly because of he outer look of it the 3ds sordove has that old ds/gameboy look to it and ilike the finish on the dsi

  • 3dsssssssss

  • man we all kowe 3ds won

  • How is there even a choice? 3DS DEFIANTLY. It can play both 3DS and DS games. It's stupid that this is even an issue....

  • DSI

  • 3DS IS WAY BETTER BY MIELES

  • dsi, 3ds has no flipnote or internet only a few games

  • @SuperHappyRobertTime It does have internet.

  • @SuperHappyRobertTime it is the other way around

  • Dsi is actually kind of better than the 3DS. So what if it is 3D. Compared to virtual reality, virtual reality would be better. 3D is always better in consoles like the PS3 or Xbox or Wii because the battery power. Wait there is no battery power :D. And there would be less chance of getting headaches. If you buy this, your gonna regret buying this when the wii in 3d or even 3D gamecube. who knows?

  • ok uh ill say dsi cuz well i know 3DS is better but its ma baby and well, its got no votes here

    p.s: NOT WTF U TALKING BOUT comments i know the 3DS is better but still

  • the 3ds is better because its in 3D and that's how i like it

  • So to the point. Is this just another DS upgrade or another handheld console altogether? Because when I think about shelling another 150+tax just for 3D gimmicks and a thumbstick to basically play the same games,seems rather ridiculous.

  • Sure you should get the 3DS! Unfortunately, you will have to wait until late may for the Nintendo eShop, Internet Browser, and tons more features to come in a system update.

  • Is this a joke? 3DS!!!!

  • I got a DSI and 3ds and 3ds is so better

  • 3ds

    

  • So glad I've not bought a DSi. 3DS all day long!!

  • @larion95

    DSi is worth more money in trade-in.

  • @larion95 100% AGREE

  • @larion95 I regret buying a dsi

  • @larion95 I also regret buying the DSi.

  • 3DS is the best

  • oh, dsi definitely. 

  • 3dz 

  • Come on...you can't be serious. You're asking us "What's better, the DSi, or the successor to the DSi (and the whole DS series)?" Of course the 3DS wins! The 3DS can basically do everything the DSi can, except much more efficiently. And at the same time, you'll be able to play all the new games in these next upcoming years. Yeah...the DSi can't do that. This would be like asking people, "What's better, Windows XP, or Windows 7?"

  • @mario54671 Well that's not the best example, people may like some features XP has that 7 doesn't, ones that were dropped completely from past Windows versions. A better example would be something that can do exactly what the previous version of itself can do, and more. So a 20 inch TV or a 50 inch TV, what's better.. something like that. Or better yet an HD TV? Meh, maybe someone would rather prefer SD. xD

  • @Slashdeath97 Yes....I couldn't think of anyone who would WANT to have a SD TV after having an HDTV. I was like that for the longest time, but now I have one, and can't go back.  So yes, your example is better. It's just ridiculous, because the 3DS IS essentially a DSi....it can do ann the things a DSi can do, difference is, if you get a DSi, you'll be missing out on all the new games coming out (Mario Kart, Paper Mario, Super Mario 3DS, Professor Layton, etc.)

  • @mario54671 Exactly. So on another note... Paper Mario 3D, isn't that ironic!

  • @Slashdeath97 Indeed it is. :P But, as long as they're going back to the original turn-based formula where they use turn-based battling, and they let you explore, instead of keeping you locked up in a hub world, then I'm happy. :)

  • @mario54671 windows xp is better in many peoples eyes.... many many peoples eyes. Bad example.

  • @mario54671 windows xp is better in many peoples eyes.... many many peoples eyes.  Bad example.

  • @Packerbackermk Well, in many people's eyes, Windows XP is better than VIST, not Windows 7. Someone else already addressed this, and we already agreed that while the analogy wasn't that good, and they made another one. Come on, keep up.

  • @ssjdbz87 The DSi (and other models) will be discontinued soon. The 3DS isn't some new reiteration of the DS, it's the successor to the whole DS series. As in, yes, even the old DS Phat, this will be the successor to that old 2004 model. If you're buying a DSi, I can't stop you, but just know that no more games will be coming out for it. So...you're gonna be missing out on A LOT of games because now they're making games only dedicated to the 3DS, and you won't be able to play them.

  • 3ds

  • Help- Should I buy the Ocarina of time Cartridge or get the 3DS?, because every other game I want is alreay on the DSi!

  • dsi of course

  • can the nintendo 3DS play old games like DSI games???? please tell me!!!!!

  • @fandrawerNgundam yes, and in 3D

  • @FiretruckYou911 WOW!!!!!!!!! it can play old games !?!?!?!? OW MAN!!!! I"M REALLYGONNA BUY NINTENDO 3DS !!!! NINTENDO 3DS !!!!!

  • @ssjdbz87 ooo its more than just 3d.... you oviously didnt watch any of the 3ds videos.... it has Mii, Fishing on the wall and a lot more stuff.... trust me, you will LOVE it when u watch the videos

  • 3DS WINS

  • just beacuse the 3ds is out everybodys gonna stop playing ds and dsi that sucks

  • @13swordmaster : IT DOES.....EVEN THE DS

    I THINK

  • @ssjdbz87 : BETTER GRAPHICS........bETTER INTERNET SERVICE......MORE CAMERAS.....MAKE A MII,FASTER DOWNLOADS.....OH, IF YOUR NEAR SOMEONE ELSE WITH A 3DS, IT WILL CREAT A GAME SO YOU TWO CAN BATTLE....AND MUCH MUCH MORE....

  • 3ds

    

  • I personally think that the 3ds is not worth it YET, when the R4 comes out it will be but right now they're thinking of making anti piracy patched so the 3ds may not have an r4, Or they might start a war with nintendo. I dont prefer my consoles fat and bulk, The 3ds is actually quite bulky where as the dsi is slim. And the 3ds a bit curvyish if you kno whut i mean, But when they make a 3ds thats Boxy, And theirs a good broweser and can play videos from utube and view mp3 file. AND HAS A DAM R4

  • @omlan There are R4 alternatives that are arguably better than the R4, iEdge or Acekard or M3i are all very good flashcarts.I have an R4 for DS lite but I'm not sure whether to get a DSi or a 3DS

  • watch theyve done this before ds dslite dsi dsixl 3ds whats next 3ds xl 

  • 13swordmaster yes it does have web browser it has everyrthing !

  • Video is good, but the music makes me want to put a bullet in my head.

  • Nintendo 3DS!!!

  • i would totally choose the 3ds.

  • Yeah, I knew it... Black Eyed Peas. Also, its called Playstation Suite William!

  • Great, so you idiots are buying yet another gimmick from Nintendo that has done nothing but make the screen smaller, offer more colours, and add a bad quality 3d feature (runs at 360p AT THE MOST in 3D mode.)

    PSP2 will run at 720p, which is more than the Wii and on par with 360 and nearly on par with PS3.

  • @TURKEYkebabz

    my xbox runs of full hd? 1080i

  • @omlan

    The 360 menu runs on full HD, everything else is either upscaled or not 1080.

  • @TURKEYkebabz

    Sorry but i own an 360 some shit games run around 720 and most newer games if set run at 1080

  • @omlan

    1080i not 1080p.

  • 3ds is beeeeeeettttteeeeerrrrrrrrrr <3

  • 3ds all day!

  • worth getting the 3DS for Pokemon Black And White?
