What is "StreetPass" and "SpotPass"?

-SpotPass allows the 3DS to detect wireless access points or hotspots. Basically this allows the 3DS to a automatically update when you are in Nintendo hotspots or a wireless LAN is detected. 

-StreePass also uses wireless technology to exchange information with gamers you pass [walk pass or are near?]. 

These modes are always on, but doesn't drain your battery while in sleep mode. Well it uses a "little energy". These modes are only used when the system power is "ON" and the 3DS is in sleep mode [when the 3DS is closed]. 

What features will be included with the 3DS?

- You can see 3D images without glasses on the top screen. The 3D effect can be adjusted by a slider on the side.

- A stereographic camera that takes 3D pictures. The two external cameras automatically turn photos into 3D.

- New input interfaces: slide pad, motion sensors, and a gyro sensor.

- Communication while in sleep mode: The 3DS automatically connects to Wi-Fi spots and Nintendo Zones to download game data, demos, and videos.

- StreetPass Mode – Similar to Dragon Quest IX the Nintendo 3DS exchanges data with other 3DS users. This feature works for multiple titles.

- DS functions work within games. You can visit the home menu, notification lists, and internet browser while playing a game.

- Built-in software: Like the Nintendo DSi, the Nintendo 3DS comes preloaded with apps. You can use the Nintendo 3DS Camera, 3DS Sound, Mii Studio, Spotpass - StreetPass mode Mii Plaza, AR Games. 

- Introductory videos and rankings can be downloaded from the internet.

- Software purchased on a Nintendo DSi and/or Nintendo DSi XL can be transferred to and from a Nintendo 3DS. There is a limit of how many times you can transfer software, but Nintendo has not announced a number.

- Backwards compatible with Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi software.

- Parental controls can be set for the web browser and what software can be run.

- A Mii editor/creation studio will be available for the 3DS and will avaialble to share with other 3DS users and possible "in-game" functions.

- 3DS can store data for multiple games at once, and you don’t even have to be playing the game in order for that to happen. That data can be transferred to other 3DS systems wirelessly.

- Selecting notifications from a list.

- There will be 6 augmented reality games included right out of the box. 

- A light will be on the upper-right corner of the device, near the R button, and it will show you when another 3DS has passed by you, and that new data has been received.

Are there any other things the 3DS features outside of gaming?

Yes. The 3DS also supports 3D movie playback. Nintendo is working with and has reportedly have contracts with Dreamworks, Warner Bros, and Disney. Some of the companies had there 3D movies playing on the Nintendo 3DS at E3 2010. Iwata wants the 3DS to be used as a 3D movie player as well.

What colors have been announced or shown?

There will be only 2 colors to choose from at launch.

Aqua Blue

Cosmo Black
http://storage.siliconera.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/image_thumb546.png

The Nintendo 3DS has been shown in other colors as well. Those colors were blue, red, purple, and bronze . Most of those colors were sighted at E3 2010. [pictured below]

-What titles will be available at launch?

I was reading this link and thought I'd post here: 
http://www.vgrevolution.com/2011/01/nintendo-3ds-us-launch-titles-announced/

As for Japan...here is the release schedule:

Combat of Giants Dinosaur 3D - Ubisoft
Nintendogs + Cats - Nintendo
Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask- Level 5
Ridge Racer 3D - Namco
Puzzle Bobble 3D - Square Enix
Samurai Warriors Chronicle - Koei Tecmo
Street Fighter IV 3D Edition - Capcom
Winning Eleven 3DSoccer - Konami

What games have been announced so far?

Check this link for Japan titles: 
http://www.gamespot.com/news/6286117.html

How long many hours will the Battery operate?

3.5 hours to 5 hours or longer depending on the functions you have running. If you are using less functions such as the Wi-Fi, 3DS and other functions then the 3DS battery should last longer than 3.5 hours. 3D drains the battery a lot [of course] so use the slider to decrease the 3D for longer gameplay hours. 

Are there any in-depth specs on the 3DS GPU (PICA200)?

Yes you can view more specs about PICA200 here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PICA200

Can I see what the Nintendo 3DS GPU is capable of?

Yes. You can view footage of the Pica200 demo here:

DMP Pica200 Mikage demo (Nintendo 3DS GPU)
sknmak 7 years ago#6
What other software can the 3DS support?

You can also play Game Boy and Game Boy Color titles on your Nintendo 3DS by using the Virtual Console. These titles can also be saved to the SD card once downloaded. It's a possibility that other content will be available, downloaded and saved to the SD card [possibly DLC?].

Very nice, put a few nitpicks:

Why did you delete an entire post? If something was wrong, GameFAQs now has an edit post feature... Which, by the way, there a few small grammatical errors which can be fixed.

May I suggest a tidier v2.1 without the deleted post? You can't retrieve a post once it has been deleted, so that deleted post will always be there now...

Great FAQ, TC, though you fail to mention Europe, who will actually get the system before the US.

Edit: We can edit posts now, so maybe you can change things a little bit as time goes on. Europe's launch is 25 March, with pricing depending on retailers.

Two things,

One, Japan is approximately 10-12 hours ahead of the US, depending on your location in the US. Hence, Japan is almost always a day ahead of us. Your import website is taking that into account. It WILL ship (also, notice the word "ship", this is different then receive) on Feb 25th if you're importing. But the US Feb 25th is the Japanese Feb 26th when you consider the time difference.

Secondly, why the hell would you believe a third party website with no ties to Nintendo over, gasp, Nintendo? That just doesn't make any sense. 

The Nintendo 3DS will be released in Japan on Feb 26th, end of story. 

And no, I'm not posting a link to back this up, I'm already appalled with myself for wasting two minutes of my life on you. If you want proof, try this revolutionary new invention called "google".

Apparently the 3ds gets about 8 hrs if the 3d is turn off, and a lot more with everything set to the lowest settings and WiFi off.

Well according to Nintendo's own UK general manager, he says otherwise which is why I only said 3.5 hours-5 hours [possibly more I suppose]. Here a link to verify this:

Whether an importer, or anyone/place has it early or not does not change the official release date of something. If I had a 3DS to ship to you right this moment, it does not make the release date of the 3DS the 21st of January. Regardless of what you think, the official release date of the 3DS in Japan is February 26th, 2011.

Since you like links and proof so much, here is a link from Nintendo's official japanese website:
http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/hardware/spec/index.html

If you'd so kindly look at the second row of information, it states the release date, which happens to say February 26th 2011.

Have a good day (or night).

I'm not trying to argue but you said your importer told you NOT to listen to the OFFICIAL Nintendo website?

And if there is a way to get the system early over there then didn't you prove to that YamiYugi guy that he is right? Just because you get something early doesn't change the official release date. For instance a video store gets movies up to a week in advance that doesn't change the official release date.

I didn't have him do anything, he probably posted the proof because he was sick of seeing you complain about nothing. There has been ton of 3DS news releasing and you didn't know the correct release date[?]. That's not my problem. I just write the FAQ and update it. If I'm wrong I'm sorry, but I wasn't wrong so.......

this is my finally post in any of your threads .when challenged for proof .do not let other do the fighting for you all it shows is your clueless .

Yeah I'm clueless enough to take the time and write the FAQ and UPDATE plus I posted some sources. Also it isn't that hard to go to NINTENDO OFFICIAL WEBSITE and look at the info. I normally ignore your post, but thanks for making thing a lot easier for me. I ignored you and another user corrected you....that's your problem now...not mines, so don't even try to smart mouth me. You seem to dislike me+my FAQs so good day sir.

I heard that the 3Ds is region lock.

Also for ppl who are interested with achievements/trophies wondering if the 3Ds will have something:

Bill Trienen confirm that there will have no achievement in the 3Ds.

http://kotaku.com/5740114/a-nintendo-argument-against-achievements

in short the magic box para-phase what Bill said:

J a n u a r y 2 4 , 2 0 1 0

"Bill Trienen from Nintendo of America said that the 3DS will not have Achievement system similar to Xbox 360. The reason is that Nintendo wants player to explore and discover things independently in the game, as opposed to find and unlock Achievements setup by the game developers, which he thinks is more compelling."

http://www.the-magicbox.com/gaming.htm

Again, the Nintendo 3Ds will not have an achievement system.

    I got a question on the durability of this thing. The first wave of DS was built like a brick house. With each respective version that came out though, I always had problems with shoulder buttons sticking, and it really stopped me from being able to play a lot of the best of what the DS had to offer.

    Is the 3DS built just as flimsily, or is it actually sturdy enough to hold well over a long stretch of time?

    Nice to have this info in one place.

    The IGN 3DS Launch guide is nice too :-)


    Though no one seems to know exactly which 3DS games will be available AT USA launch yet.. 

    (like say in the first 2 weeks or so after the 3DS hardware launch on March 27th in the USA.

    What exactly are these "6 AR cards"?

    Can someone be as specific as possible?

    corbie33 7 years ago#55
    There are 6 AR cards: "?" card, Mario card, Toon Link card, Kirby card, Samus card, and Pikmin card. You use them with the Augmented Reality games built into the 3DS. You basically aim your 3DS camera at the card you want to play and once it picks it up a game kicks off.

    One specific game involves the "?" card in which a box pops up out of the card your looking at and a targeting reticle appears on your 3DS screen. You must then use this reticle to aim and shoot the targets that pop up around the large box. There's even a boss fight to tackle at the end of the mini-game. In truth all of the games are very different and really a lot of fun considering how simple they are.

    I don't think it's a problem and I'm sure Nintendo as well as other companies have acknowledged this. You should be fine and it isn't dangerous. Especially if millions of people are doing exactly what you described.

      it's automatic.

      Once you set it up your system/Mii/plaza and have the necessary plaza updates, you should be getting an SP.


      There's an 8hr (internal time) interval between SP's.

      I'd go with the Euro version because the games will be in English, whereas the games for the Jp version will be in Japanese. I have the Euro version myself since Nintendo NA made a boneheaded decision not too bring the standard 3DS to NA.

      Does anyone know how to change the sound card on the 3DS XL? I was playing a game that I last played on my DS Lite-- with decent-to-good quality headphones in-- and I finally realized how much the sound sucks. Now, I like the bigger screen and I could always buy a DSi XL to get better sound, but since I have plenty of 3DS games too it makes more sense to just change the sound card instead.

      So, yeah. Sound card change? Is it possible? What does Nintendo use? What should I use? Dangers/cautions? Instructions? Pretty please?

      I have a question: does anyone know whether you can transfer games from a micro SD card in the NN3DS to a new micro SD card? I have a lot of virtual games and a few I don't really play anymore on my current card and its full so I was hoping to get some of them on another card so I can keep the new stuff together on the first card and avoid a lot of unscrewing to swap the cards out every time I wanted to play. Specifically I want to download Xenoblade Chronicles 3D but no room so I want to get stuff off without deleting them.

      Sure, just pop the card out, plug it in a PC, copy the contents to the new card and pop that back in. Easy.

      Keep in mind though, that without some manhandling, the 3DS does not support SDXC cards. So officially, 32 GB is the max.

      My recommendations :
      Rune Factory 4 (sort of a life sim but you can pretty much just focus on the dungeon crawling or characters)
      Shin Megami Tensei IV (fantastic atmosphere and music, kinda hard but the DLC mitigates the difficulty)
      Persona Q (Get it. Now.)
      Mario and Luigi Dream Team Bros (Cute and forgiving with its difficulty)
      Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney Dual Destinies (not an RPG but good story and characters )

      Sorry for stupid question but I've read on internet that retail 3DS games doesn't take SD card storage (only digital ones does) is that true?

      Um lol for physical games they don't use up any space on the SD card.. Except maybe for their DLC or extra data.

      Physical games I can sell or trade in, DL games? You don't like it, too bad. You won't get your money back out of it. 

      Never mind they are only available till they take them down. I wanted classic Tetris, but between the time I saw it was available and the time I got my 3DS XL, it was taken down. If it was a discontinued cart I could go to eBay. With the magic of DRM and download. I'm out of luck. You can't get a discontinued DL game unless THEY put it back.

      Hello there.
      I got a question about New 3DS. My friend and I bought them and did a System Transfer. The new SD card should provide more storage space, of course. So my friend had a lot of photos in the 3DS camera software with almost no storage, while I had less photos. Now, after the System Transfer, I'm able to save more photos than before, but my friend hasn't gained storage space.
      It's like I had space for 300 photos on the 3DS and have space for 2000 photos or something on the New 3DS, and my friend had around 20 photos left on 3DS and still 20 or maybe 30 on New 3DS.
      Would be great if someone knew a solution or just an answer. Thanks.

      Which literally 99% of the games have.

      Insert your current SD card into a PC, copy over the data, then insert the new SD card into the PC and copy over the old SD card's backed up data.

      I have a New 3DS XL, and when l try to load a video on Youtube, it just keeps loading and loading and loading, and if it does work, it keeps lagging. It works perfectly fine on my brothers Old 3DS, so l don't know why it won't work.
