3DS Feature Wishlist

valleyoftheunos

What features do you want to see on the new 3DS and what do you think it will or wont have?

I'd like to see;

-power, something akin to a Gamecube would be great, aside from the visuals the scope and size that this would allow in games would really take Nintendo portable gaming up a notch.

-High quality large screens, not HD but hirez and the larger the better.

-Two touch screens, touch screen gaming has actually been genius, double the fun.

-Dual analogue sticks, this is a big ask and I have no suggestions as to how to implement it but I think the difference it can make to game design and game play is huge.

-a good downloadable software service, Virtual Console on the move and "3DSware" that offers more than themed alarm clocks for the first few months.

-An affordable pricepoint, no new hardware is ever that cheap but the PSPGO is just too expensive, the 3DS needs to be at a price that I can pay and not feel like I have taken leave of my senses when I'm handing over the cash.
anybody else have any ideas?

Good battery life like it's predecessors.

Problem being if you have all of the above it's really going to suffer.

I don't mind if the battery life is considerably less than the current DS if it means a better system. PSP battery time would suit me fine.

Is a Snes/nes cartridge slot too much to ask? :pac:

Some decent onboard storage, maybe 4 gigs to keep the price down, and of course a sd expansion slot for more memory.

Would like a Gameboy virtual console on it.

Can already do that on the DS with a bit of know how

How about a third screen? It could have one big one in the middle and then one on each side that fold out from the middle. Like a gatefold album.

I predict that it will look like two N64 pads, joined by a hinge with a stick in the middle and screens above that, it'll be retrotastic!

I want it to have better graphics , the psp totally dominates the market in that regard

Lol no doubt there'll be a 3ds lite as soon as I get my 3ds

Think I'll wait for the 3dsiXL myself

Sirpineapple

Lol they spent ages trying to get it as small/lite as possible and then they go make a XL version.

i reckon it'll only be 3d on one screen and the other is a touch screen.

mario 3d could be cool
