Nintendo of Japan has let slip that they will be releasing a new Nintendo DS, likely entitled “3DS”, for it’s new 3D screen capabilities! Pretty neat if you ask me. The idea is that there is a thin screen overlapping the display which gives a 3D visual appearance. We’ll see how it pans out though soon, it is rumored they may launch this year near E3 this year, if not then, then early 2011.
Further rumors indicate that the 3DS will also have an analog stick, built in rumble, great distance on wifi, longer battery life and likely also an accelerometer for tilting controls.
