Flipped open the 3DS is a beauty
But its outer shell lacks the clean curves of the DS Lite giving the 3DS a more functional look than something resembling an object of gaming desire. Awkward stylus placement on the rear means you'll have to reach around the back of the 3DS to whip it out.

Game & Watch, third-party licensing, Mode-7, Super Mario 64, Game Boy, DS, Wii. The 3DS rightly deserves a place among the pantheon of iconic Nintendo innovations. Who better than the Grandmaster of Gaming to take us through our first tentative steps in t...
Abstract: Image Gallery: It's a question that's likely plagued the Nintendo hardware development team following the monumental success of the Nintendo DS, which has sold a whopping 145 million units to date. That console introduced touchscreen gaming to the ma...
There's never been a handheld quite like the Nintendo 3DS - one as brimming with features as well as potential, and offering an experience that's frankly impossible on other mobile devices like Apple's iPhone 4 or Sony's upcoming PSP successor. If you...
