Looking at the Nintendo 3DS
After buying my son a Nintendo 3DS Black console for his 12th birthday I was surprised to see how great the games were as my son started playing them Testing your brain was all you could do with the Nintendo when it first hit the shops or so I thought.
What a shock I got when I saw Lucas playing something called Resident Evil: The Mercenaries which was different to the one I had purchased with the Nintendo a few days earlier. This was a much better game than the one you bought with the console and I can swap them for more at school.
As my wife put her foot down and stopped the boy taking the console to school I get to play with it during the day when I’m home. The graphics are amazing and the sound is too but the control of The game and the characters has change into the shape of a Circular disc called a Circle Pad which is much easier to work than the standard control (+) button which is still there.
With the invention of 3D view and the brilliant graphics and sound this is one console that I don’t want to put down and walk away. To enhance the 3D view or to reduce the viewing capacity on the screen Nintendo have given you a slider button at the right of the top screen so you can adjust it to suit your eye’s and not get them strained.
Time and time again I get shot only to start back at the beginning of a level ready to be shot again. I guess my son wasn’t that impressed at the way I played It was mind boggling to be in so many different locations within the game but my son tells me that many games are more complex and harder to play and win as time goes by.
With the 2 camera’s mounted on the lid of the Nintendo 3DS you can take 3D pictures in real time. There’s an 2 GB SD Card stored in the base of your console where you can store your picture’s after you’ve taken them. I’ve had the 2 GB SD card in the console and never filled it up completely.
Storing both photo’s and sound on an SD card would be a great idea for someone to come up with an gallery app allowing you to show the combined media on the screen. Now you can actually connect with other Nintendo owner’s with the built-in Wi-Fi that lets you use those Hot Spot’s you find in airport’s and coffee bar’s around the city.
The Wi-Fi also lets you connect with other Nintendo console owners to exchange data from one machine to another via something called SpotPass which works even if your machine is in sleep mode.
Because the Nintendo is a fantastic gaming console I’ve bought my own and now sit at home playing Resident Evil to my hart’s content. You’d think that getting out my Nintendo console on the train would be a bit childish, but it just started a new craze as everybody ask’s me about different games and how to play them, its great.
