Nintendo 3DS Hands-On: Does It Live Up to the Hype?

We’ve covered Nintendo’s 3DS plenty these last few months, and with good reason. Nintendo’s DS platform currently qualifies as the second-bestselling game console in the world, just a few million units behind Sony’s PlayStation 2. That, and we’re as curious as you about the glasses-free 3D experience. Will it be enough to fend off Sony’s Next Generation Portable (NGP) and Apple’s rapidly expanding iOS gaming platform?

We recently had a chance to put a few of the Nintendo 3DS launch titlesthrough their paces, including Pilotwings, Steel Diver, Nintendogs + Cats, Super Street Fighter IV 3D. We also allowed Nintendo to guide us through some of the 3DS’s built-in features like Street Pass, the gyroscopic motion controls, and the augmented reality angle.

Patrick Miller, Staff Editor: I wasn’t hyped for the 3DS in the slightest until I got a chance to play with it. Frankly, if I hadn’t been a devoted Nintendo DS owner, I would probably have been a bit confused by the various mishmash of features: Augmented reality games, motion controls, Street Pass, and so on. However, having seen game developers take the original Nintendo DS’s unorthodox feature set and turn it into some of the most innovative games I’ve ever seen, I’m officially stoked.

I can see myself carrying one everywhere thanks to the Street Pass features, which allows various games to interact with other 3DS-toting people (Super Street Fighter IV 3D, for example, allows your character to “battle” other passers-by while your 3DS is in standby mode), and the Games Coin function, which allows me to earn in-game currency simply by walking around with 3DS in tow (think pedometer with perks). Likewise, the camera-based augmented reality game features (demoed in a game called FaceRaider) are just the tip of the iceberg. Give me a Phoenix Wright title for the 3DS and I’m sold.

When it comes to the 3D technology itself, I was less than impressed. The 3D effect basically makes the 3DS screen appears as though you’re looking into a diorama, and it wasn’t fantastic. It’s neat, but not a game-changer as far as I’m concerned.

Nintendo Mario Party DS $32.99 Up to 4 players Rating Discriptor: Comic Mischief With 70+ minigames and five themed game boards, Mario Party DS packs all the goods for portable play. And it’s brought to life with fun surprises players can see only on Nintendo DS, such as touch control, microphone control and dual-screen challenges. Users can play as one of eight characters: Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, Peach, Daisy, Toad, Wario and Waluigi. They’re all ready to foil Bowser’s latest scheme. He seeks five powerful crystals and shrinks down the crew so they can’t stop him. But each of the tiny heroes wants to be the one and only Superstar that brings down Bowser. Mario Party DS makes the series multiplayer action portable at last, from playing with friends on the game boards to challenging them in favorite minigames. And now players can throw a party anywhere and play wirelessly with friends, since much of the game can be shared to other Nintendo DS systems from just one game card. When Mario and his friends are shrunk down for Mario Party DS, harmless locations take on menacing proportions in five game boards, such as Wiggler’s Garden and Toadette’s Music Room. The party boards and minigames are crazier than ever in a new title that shrinks down the whole Mario crew for whimsical party play.
