Nintendo CTRSBAAA 3DS Aqua Blue Handheld Gaming System
Introducing the Nintendo 3DS Aqua Blue Handheld Gaming System, a groundbreaking hardware release that brings 3D gaming to the handheld market for the first time ever. The fourth major release in the DS product line, the Nintendo 3DS utilizes a 3D Slider functionality and an improved top LCD display to present a glasses-free 3D effect on compatible games, while giving players the option to control the effect as they see fit. Taken together with additional features including full analog control in 3D game environments, motion and gyro sensors that transfer the movements of the handheld into the game, 3D camera functionality, an adjustable stylus and full backwards compatibility for all existing Nintendo DS and Nintendo DSi games allowing them to be played on the Nintendo 3DS system in 2D.
Like earlier handhelds released by Nintendo, the Nintendo 3DS Aqua Blue Handheld Gaming System incorporates both an upper and lower LCD display in a clamshell layout. The lower screen features familiar Nintendo touch screen technology which makes use of the included telescoping stylus that is stored in the unit itself, while the Upper screen features the groundbreaking 3D screen capable of displaying 16.77 million colors in a 800 x 240 Pixel resolution. The top half also holds all 3 of the Nintendo 3DS' cameras including the front facing and 2 outer ones all featuring 640 x 480 resolutions with single focus lenses that use the CMOS capture element and an active pixel count of approximately 300,000.
Not to be outdone by its visuals, this Nintendo 3DS system features new ways of playing and control. The 3DS has a new circular Analog Pad above the directional pad for precise control on aim or movement. Combined with the touch screen, traditional buttons, camera and microphone input, and advanced motion control of the Motion Sensor and Gyro Sensor, the potential is extraordinary. Every Nintendo 3DS system also comes packed with a 2 GB SD memory card. You can use this SD memory card to store your game saves, 3D photos, and sound recordings created on the Nintendo 3DS system. You can also use it to store games downloaded from the Nintendo eShop. Glass-Less 3D, new controls, improved reality capability, social and wired like no Nintendo system before it, owning a Nintendo 3DS you have not only a must-have system, but a revolution in handheld gaming.
