"Don't forget: The 2DS can play any new 3DS game, except NEW 3DS games, which don't work on the 3DS."

 

I can already sense the confusion.  That name, if nothing else, must change.

It might be changed for NA. In Japan it works better since I'm assuming they have a Japanese word for new.

Whats hilarious, was nintendo thought this name was foolproof.

'Well, nobody knew the wii u was a new wii. So lets put NEW in the name of the 3ds! NEW 3ds!'

'BRILLIANT!'

Nintendo has always been truly dreadful at naming systems.

The gamecube was a pretty good name

It was a bad pun.

Pun?

When did they say it'll have a better resolution?

In the video I saw it showed both half screens side by side and the new one looked much clearer and better. It was japanese so I assume it was showing better resolution.


If you skip to 5:10 you see the side by side.

Lol that's not really pun. You could say the same about Xbox, a box with an x on it.

Anyone else think the new 3ds is pretty much a wii u gamepad in your hands? All controls are now there, nfc built in.......

I will be mildly surprised if they don't have an option to use it as a controller for the Wii U.

I wish instead of "new" they would have called it the Super Nintendo 3DS. That would have been the best name ever.

Does it? It looks pretty similar to me, I don't know what else they'd be showing off with that sort of comparison though, so maybe you're right.

I believe they were shoing off the auto brightness feature which helps battery life. Similar feature in most smart phones

It was named Xbox after DirectX The X was put on the box because of the name. Yes Xbox is a crappy name so is playstation.

Oh I completely forgot about that, that's probably what it is.
